the k20 is one of my favorite motors. I wish they had used it in a RWD platform like they had planned to

Yeah, well the acura is fine and all, but i have been deciding which to replace it with, the 5.0 or the Z, or S2000

How about a 1.8 Liter 4Cyl?

I want more power. ive tasted it in friends cars, and the acura is a 05. starting to get past that nothing breaks phase. gotta replace my caliper on my driver side this weekend for example. plus i wouldn't call the acura a sports car. its sporty enough to leave me wanting.

No I don't have one, I was looking at all my options and ended up getting the 5.0. My brother has a 40th and my sister has a yellow 370z.

Yep I know what you mean. Reminds me of my 01 Integra. Last year they made it.... makes me miss it. Nice cars, but yes, leaves you wanting in the "sports car" dept.

Good luck with your choice. I have driven all 3 of the options you are looking at. I've owned the Z... and almost bought a used S2k instead of the Z a couple years ago. I since traded in my Z for the 5.0 after only a year of ownership, so you probably know how I feel towards the 5.0.

On another note... Dan, Steve.... guess what guys.... My Sales manager just gave me my VIN #.....

ETA date is 11/12 - 11/19!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am f*ing STOKED man. I thought December... now I get to enjoy it for maybe a few weeks before putting her away. She's getting modded the MINUTE I get her in the garage. I guarantee you that.

Being without a toy car has been AGONIZING. I love my 12 year old Civic for my daily beater... but man............ it's been tough

X pipe would just change the tone a bit, and actually quiet it down at idle and low revs.
