is300. i just love those cars. they are sleek, sexy, have more room, and have TONS of aftermarket support. i love s2ks, but they seem to becoming a lot more common. the is300 is a gorgeous car, is way more pimp than an s2k, and can look just as good.

Agreed S2000's seem to have become trendy, as well as others such as Imprezas. The IS300 is beautiful and you'd get much more sex appeal from that car. Big pimpin'.

S2ks because they're sporty, and pimp

IS300's are nice, but the interiors look/feel cheap as hell

All that stuffs becoming common because they're getting cheap as hell

Thats a tough one... You do see custom s2000s more than you do is300s... They are both great cars with different purposes. So I would ask what you need the car for, if it was just to go to work in and around town when you go out then I would say the s2000. However if you had a job where you had to drive clients around, go on long road trips all the time, if you are going grocrey shopping once a week, or if you plan to have a family anytime soon I say to get the is3000. So overall the is300 is a more pratical car but in the end, if you can get away with it who wants to be pratical, get the drop top.

S2000's are fucking sexy.

IS300's come with gay-ass APC altezza-like tails.

The choice is easy.

What is the point in this statement? You would buy the is300, sell it and buy a s2000 and mods? That is retarted... If you are talking about buying it new you would take the huge hit when you drove off the lot and you would not be able to sell the car because you would have negative equaity or lose all or a portion of the cash you put down on it. If you paid cash for the whole thing you could of just bought the s2000 to begin with and the mods. The only time what you said would work is if mommy and daddy bought the is300 new for you and you traded it in on a used s2000. Do you know anything about finances?
