Both are black. What are the pros and cons between the two? I know about the aestetic (sp) differences and that the newer ones rev lower but which do you guys think is better?

 

easiest way to decide is drive both. each person has different opinions. drive and then decide

 

What he said. Just go out and judge for yourself, lest ye be caught up in an AP1 vs AP2 shout fest.

 

IMO AP2 is better cause' new design head light + tail light + more toure + Vtec.net test both model AP1 and Ap2 = AP2 10-15WHP more

do not give out wrong info. the ap2 has been shown to have the same whp. i have seen ap1's range from 190-215whp stock. i have seen ap2's from 193-214whp stock. one fact is the ap2 does have more torque, just a lil more

 

From what Ive heard, ap1s are more "raw." So I dont know what you want ... go test drive one!

 

as far as displacement goes... are the 02s only 2.0 liters or are they available in 2.2? I know the 04 is.

Both are black, the 02 has all red interior which makes me happy

 

Ive test driven like 3 or 4 01s and 02s and took the black 02 home for a bit and now im deciding between that 02 and the 04... hell maybe I'll buy an 05 new... either way I'm joining you guys in the s2000 johnny tran league

 

A reference to FnF? Uh oh...

 

another thing. If I go with a new one are they available in black with all red interior.

You just ruined it for yourself.

 

I would go with 04 personally.. I like everything about it except for the new tweeters design.. I like the old round ones better.. 04 has a bit nicer interior and better looking rims too imo..

He had a chance to make right of the situation, instead he dove right in.

I always go with a newer car.

All ap1s (00-03) are 2.0 , while 04-up (ap2) are 2.2

 

AP1. take the money you'd save and do some work to it. with the thousands youd save you could put it into suspension, or motor, or both. 02- 21k-22k ish (dont quote me) or 04 -28,000+. Even if you arent paying up front, youd still save a few hundred in payments per month.. it all adds up. find an 02 with low miles (shouldnt be too hard) and have some fun in working on it. in stock form, its great, but you might have more appreciation for it if you adjust it to your likings

 

so if s2000s have model years from 2000-2006... which models straight revving at 8k? Im thinking its 00-02 revs to 9k..... 03-06 revs to 8k... Is this correct?

 

00-03 rev to 9k

04+ rev to 8k

 

hmm... well I am to test drive the 04 tomorrow I believe... I will make a thread with the one I get.
