A real dilemmia

On the way past the Honda garage today I saw a Honda S2000 for sale, GT, in pearl yellow, '02 plate, £14500. So popped in to take a closer look and found that it also only had 34k on the clock and FSH. One hour later after a test drive I came to my dilemmia.

 

I have a Honda Accord Coupe has a second car and to use when the other half is driving round in my Supra :(.

 

Now my problem is that although the coupe is gorgeous (full leather interior, climinate, awesome Bose sound system, electric everything, heated seats, custom paint job and kitted ...... and so on) she is a bit of a slug. There are times I may feel also feel like going out for a drive in a car of my own when Ian takes the Supe but the Accord just powered up for it. So I end up as a passenger in with Ian driving.

One option is to modify the engine of the Accord - but even then I won't get much extra, the other is to sell the accord and buy a S2000.

 

HELP!!!

I'd say keep the accord as its practical - a beautiful but slow S2000 isnt.

 

Now- with all that money saved with not buying your new car its time to consider 1. A full spray (IIRC your doesnt need one)

2. Single :cool: (and i dont mean get rid of ian)

Wots the Dilema?

 

1stly I wound not by a yellow one. But its ur choice, I think the best colour they come in is Nurburing Blue, followed by, black, silversone silver and gun metal grey.

 

But I think an 02 for 14,500 is very expensive. You can pick up a 2003 53 New shape for that money. Have a look on Pistonheads or Autotrader.

 

I personally think the old shape looks dated, and the face life should have been the styling of the S2000 originally.

 

I was sooooooooooo close to parting with my cash for one, until Mr Lui too me for a spin in his motor, then I said it was far too slow for my liking.
