S2000s are slow
S2000s are slow.
They are nice cars but I have beaten them mercilessly, first in my Firebird and now with my STi.
All that purist crap is the same elitist nonsense you hear Boxster owners spouting when they get trounced by some kid in an SRT-4 or Fox body Mustang.
Purpose built, balanced, experienced driver, blah, blah......blah
Meh.
Buy a car with some balls and you won't have to write revisionist nonsense like this.

The only cars that might be considered "good" at
The only cars that might be considered "good" at everything are BMW M series sedans. They are fast, comfortable, relatively practicle, handle well and are competitive in motorsports.
Unless of course it's raining....
But I digress.
I honestly question the motives of somebody who writes an article like that, out of the blue.
I mean, why denigrate Evos (or any other car) if you have an S2K?
I think this guy truly resents his purpose built sports car getting beat up on by econobox based cars, so he has to craft these specious arguments as to why his Honda is "superior."
It's truly laughable.

Re: The only cars that might be considered "good"
I like the whole "relatively practical" part. If you consider the M series, why not the AMG series and audi makes an "S" and "RS" seriesonelove wrote:The only cars that might be considered "good" at everything are BMW M series sedans.

Yeah AMG and Quattro GMBh
Yeah AMG and Quattro GMBh are also manufacturers of "do it all" cars.
I'd also add Subaru and Mitsubishi to the list of manufacturers who build practical street cars that are the basis of succesful race cars.
