FT-86 vs 370z time to trade in?

m4a1mustang · 06-03-2012, 11:10 AM

I wouldn't pay 28k for one, but for 15-18k I'd buy a used one to DD if I liked how it drove.

I love driving my s2000 even though its painfully slow. So its not all about power, but it is nice to have the 5.0 and clk500 when I need HP/torque.

S2000 is considerably faster than the BRZ/86.

I agree, for 20k new (less for used) I would pick one up for a DD.
It would be fun, cheap and a good car to get from A to B.

What did an S2k cost brand new? It was a 30k car.

I like the BRZ/FRS, I like the S2k, I like the Miata, I like the Elise. Power is only part of the performance car experience.

And there's no way in hell I'd pay $30k for an S2000.

Me neither, but that was 30k in early-2000's bux. Inflate that to 2012 bux, that puts it around 35k-ish? These cars are as fast for 28k. The problem? No drop top. Even then, 28k is the top price. You can get into one for 25k or so.
