Lol S2000's arent coming to an end of their depreciation at all. Just like everything else, they're going to depreciate down more and more. It takes more than 7 years to reach the end of a depreciation cycle.

This thread is a good example of why I want to be a moderator. It needs to be locked.

AP1=sex AP2=handjob
Yes I said it AP1>AP2
I drove an AP2 on some fun roads last night and it didn't quite feel as fun as my AP1
I may be biased.... I may be really biased.

I personally own a RX-8, yes its a bit slow but with virginia laws that might be a good thing. Taking exit ramps is where you can really have fun. The car really grows on you. Not many cars have this ability. After about 2 or 3 months of driving the RX-8 thats when u should be aware of its full capabilities and you feel comfortable with high speed turns. I can take the tysons exit on braddock at 95mph and the wheels dont scream once. The handling is really crisp. I bought my RX-8 GT used with Red/Black leather interior, navigation, dvd, bose audio, heated seats, and aero kit for $17,000 out the door. It was 28k miles. Someone on here said "girls think the car looks fast and thats what matters" This is true, ive gotten so much a$$ with this car. I could have gotten a S2000 or a 350z but why drive 1 girl when u can drive 3? Dont get me wrong i love the 240, many of my friends have them. Im also going to buy one myself as a side project. So this is my opinion, go with the RX-8. If you have the funds like me get a 240 as a side project. If someone talks sh!t bring out the nissan.

Maybe I missed it somewhere - but did you ever tell us what your price range is ? Are you dead set on a coupe ?
