m4a1mustang's 5.0, S2000, and other cars thread

One thing nice about the Z that the S won't do is slide the tail around controllably on sticky tires. I could drift or go to the drag strip with the Z--neither are my cup of tea, but the car is more versatile. The S was an awesome car but really is only suite for road course and auto-x type events. But I also feel like the Z is between sports and GT car, and I have the nismo--I wonder if I would actually dislike the touring model! I couldn't believe how quiet the car was when I got it lol.

The Z is a brute compared to the S, which is more like a scalpel. I always heard the only true upgrade from an S was a Cayman/Boxster S or R, and that in the intermediate price ranges, other options on the market have enough trade-off that it's a give and take rather than a better car.
