350z or s2000 Options

[masterluie214]

I like them both they both have there pro and cons and i will be buying of theses cars soon hopefully just thought i would get some more ideas of what people think about one or the other comments about why one would be better then the other would be great ......

thanks

PS. if i get the s2000 i will be buying the hard top for it so think of both of theses cars as coupes and the perches of the hard top although it is expensive is not a factor in witch one i will buy ..... this is based on looks, performance, maintenance and things along that line ......

I was sent this pm, and this is how I responded, I figured I went through the trouble of finding this info, might as well post it.

look i'm not trolling, i'm just stating the facts
a real 6th gen gt4 runs high 13s, you must know this
and it is going to be faster than a fwd swapped celica
mustang gt's, 350z's run mid 13s stock. hmmmm...

now talking about shannons car is a different story, i'm sure it would win, but its not stock

Well, I don't know where you are getting your info from, but its a a little off. I know from EXPERIENCE that my car owns mustangs, 350z, and honda s2000's all day long. You say you are sure shannons car would win (which you are right, again from EXPERIENCE) but it doesn't count because it is not stock, ok neither is a 3s swapped celica? But since were compating these cars against a stock 3s swapped celica......my car beats Shannon's car and my car IS a stock swapped celica. Aside from intake, exhaust, and boost controller.....so yes STOCK GEN3.

Just to clear is up

my swapped Celica 300whp and curb weight 2415lbs 11.674

I got the 1/4 mile numbers from punching in the numbers listed above. LOLOLOL, and no I am not saying my car will run an 11.6 (god that would be sweet) but based off the posted 1/4 mile times, my car owns by a mile. These numbers will vary GREATLY due to change in ACTUAL weight, traction, driver, and car specific WHP. It was the "best" comparison I could come up with keeping everything constant and having the only variables being power and weight. But, based on the numbers compared, they have quite a ways to catch me.

All curb weight numbers I got from here in attempt to keep things fair, and I used 2 door hatch if available.
