I found the Z more fun b/c its performance was more accessible on a daily drive basis. If you wind out the Z to redline, it really gets exciting, but even without winding it out I thought it was more fun than the S2000. I don't think you would hurt yourself either way, so it is more a matter of what floats your boat. I love convertibles, so it was hard for me to give that up and buy the Z coupe. That's how much I loved it though.

Appreciate the feedback and it's good to see you've had a primary comparison between the two also. I think the one thing that has me in line for the 370z is due to the fact that I'm in FL. I'm not necessarily a convertible type of guy, but I think the s2000 is appreciated more on twisty roads and canyons while there are mainly only straight roads in FL. SO, I'll ultimately make up my final decision when I go to test drive both tomorrow.
I'll probably be doing a comparative review between the s2000, evo x, and 370z when I get back.
