Deciding between s2000 and 370z.

I have always loved the S2000. My buddy bought one new. It held its value better than the 350Z, as I priced them in 2006-07. I liked the way it

I have always loved the S2000. My buddy bought one new. It held its value better than the 350Z, as I priced them in 2006-07. I liked the way it drove too. Great handler.

Then a couple months ago I saw one in action at an autocross class. It took last place. The driver seemed alright but his times were so poor that my love of the S2000 waned to like. My time in the Z was 54 seconds, his 1:08. I realize this is anecdotal, but this is how impressions can be made.

The Z has grunt over S2000, but to say it is a "one trick pony", is not doing justice to it's handling.
