If you didn't like that particular s2000 I would test drive another. The first one I test drove was an 05 and I wasn't impressed. I know it wasn't the car's fault it was the shady dealer trying to sell it to me. It wasn't in the best shape when I got there to see it, shifting wasn't smooth at all, and the handling was bad IMO. Tested the one I eventually bought a few days later (an 02 in MUCH better condition and fewer miles) and the difference was day and night. Shifting was like silk and the handing/ overall drive was great. I would take my time buying if I were you especially if you say you like the s2000 but are unsure. Make sure you're getting what you want and not settling on the first one you look at.

I upgraded from an 01 Prelude to an 08 s2k. Best upgrade EVER! Took a little while to get used to the RWD (still am). I loved my Prelude, don't get me wrong, but the s2k is on another level

lol i think the OP doesn't know that the s2k looks better than the prelude, drives faster than the prelude, and is just better in almost every aspect. OP, i would walk your prelude with my loud engine. hahahaha the funny thing is an H22 is louder than F20, but how would i know... oh wait.. i still own both.

S2000 looks better than preludes? I know a few ludes that would make you second guess your opinion lol jk jk. You on stock block with the s2000?

Handled ok? If you're talking about in comparison to your prelude, then you don't know what handling is. The engine is not loud at all in stock form... I don't know how that would steer you away from an S2000. However, if you didn't like it, maybe its not for you. You test drove it, you know if you like it or not.

I'm lost too, because I dont think the S2k is loud in stock form. It's not your mom's 4dr sedan, but compared to most other aggressive sports cars I've driven its pretty mild.
