Default 04'? or before?

honest opinions, is it worth spending all that much on the new s2k o4's? or just get an 03', not to sure how much teh diff. is or would be (please state the price if you know) but if it is around 5k's or more in the diff. would u just get the 03'? or worth the 03'? and dont say 04' just becaues its new and all that.

Now there's a couple of comparable vehicles.

I think that you'll need to drive both to make an educated decision. A lot of people who own the first gen will tell you that it's better because the new one is watered down. A lot of gen 2 owners will tell you its the better car because it has a few more lbs. of torque and still revs pretty high. Only you can decide which one you prefer for yourself.

But it does make you wonder that the US market is the only one that got the 2.2L engine in '04.

The dealership I went to had the 2003's about $200 cheaper than the 2004's..

go with the new, it's an overall better car than the predecessors.

Im looking to get a 00- 02 model. You can still find them with very little miles and can save up to 10g's on the price if you look hard for them
