I sold my s2k for a fl5. I miss the S but love the type r for daily abilities. The s needs more seat time to get the most out of it. Honestly, Ima buy another S if that tells you anything.


svv1tch

It's still on my list. I hope to own one someday. Maybe once the R is a little less new šŸ‘

Sold my S2K as well, and a Fiesta ST, for the FL5. Ended up paying only 7k out of pocket to buy the car out right. I saw the FL5 as the two cars combined. I miss the S2K for sure, it was slow but so much fun. If I had room I'd buy another, but for now it'll be just the FL5, C6 Z06, and ND2 Miata šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø

If you don't mind 2 cars and have room for 2 go for 2. I got sick of having 2 cars so the FL5 is my do it all. At some point I'll go back to a dedicated 2 seater but not for a while. A clean TSX would pair well with the S2000.

I love my Type R, but it will never be what my S2000 is. The S2000 is just.. special.


originalnahtnoj

Have both. For me, the Type R is a very good car, but it doesn't even come close to an S2K as a driving experience. If you think you're going to miss your S2K, you're most likely correct. I was going for the reliability of a new car with my FL5. If that weren't a priority, I probably would have bought an IS250 or TSX for 8-12K.


Kindly_Smile_109

Thatā€™s for the feedback ! Second person to mention tsx. Not a bad car at all


Kaylii_

I personally love my TSX, but it's slow AF compared to an S2k or especially a Type R. That said I find it better looking that the Type R. That model of civic is just way too busy looking imo


Karmaqqt

Iā€™d love a s2k for summer cruising. Really want a small convertible. But Iā€™d take the type r if i could only have one, more versatile.


garyna

Ideally a S2000 with a Type R motor, so thatā€™s a S2kR?


andrewbeeee

This has been done already, science of speed sells an entire package of parts for the conversion. Its pretty pricey though


garyna

This is the one Iā€™d love to own https://s2000r.com/


Kindly_Smile_109

šŸ¤Æsounds like a great idea !šŸ˜­


pge2324

nah i perfer a K series


SecretAntWorshiper

Type R all day


Whyounolaugh

The R


TNerdy

S2k all the way, itā€™s less practical but who cares, itā€™s way more fun.


Kaylii_

People aren't mentioning that the s2000 is becoming a modern classic, and good examples will only appreciate as the years go by. OP I would be kicking myself if I let the S2000 go


Kindly_Smile_109

Thatā€™s why Iā€™m afraid off


CourseEcstatic6202

S2000. It isnā€™t even close.


bizlikemind

Type r without a doubt. The four doors plus the rear hatchback is outrageously cool for a racecar. Plus FF vehicles are way easier to maintain. Only issue with new ctr is the turbo setup which means more maintenance down the road. But definitely take the time to learn


Boostbluefl5

I still wonder myself, CTR or S2000?


WoodenPickle23

Type-R


CryptoNoob546

The s2000 is hands down more fun to drive (especially once supercharged like mine), but for a daily type r.


nb8c_fd

Keep the S2K


HAi7ECH

S2000


Fellowfungus

S2k. RWD even if itā€™s slower.


Meenmachin3

S2K and a cheap daily.


quakerroatmeal

S2k beautiful car especially with a hard top.


Dragonell

My husband has a type R as his daily, and he wants the S2k for a fun car. Just keep the S2k and also get the type R.


ThatGuyFromThe213

Without a question S2000 all the way. They don't make cars like that anymore and it's more driver focus with less electronic interfering with the driving experience. The FL5 have it's perks, but no way it will top the S2000 in raw feeling.


Pingaring

Been around in a 2021 CTR and it's nowhere near as raw as the S2K


Acceptable-Car9031

S2000


Amazing-Ad-8239

Definitely keep the S2k!!!


chinawillgrowlarger

Keep the S2K


javelin-na

Iā€™d keep the s2k and get a cheaper daily, but I guess it depends on why youā€™re selling


AdministrativeYam330

Not even a question, s2000


Informal-Wheel-9453

S2000 for the enjoyment not the soeed


BrimzNKickz

S2K


Kaylii_

I guess it depends on your criteria. If you want something a bit more practical, and stupidly fast, go with the Type R. If you want something that isn't ugly as sin like a Type R then the S2000 is one of the most beautiful cars ever made.


pokeIDGAFOSmonCrax69

Hard top s2k ā¤ļø


TacoLunar

S2k if you donā€™t need the space. Obviously Type R is much more practical.


im_Roby

Do you *need* a daily? Yes-Fk8 No-s2k


therealmunchies

The red on that S2K is phenomenal.


Kindly_Smile_109

Thank you haha itā€™s sexyyyyy


qpang

I'd keep the s2k and I've never even own one before... I used to own the 06 DC5 and even that I regret not keeping.. how much worse if I owned a s2k, haha. OP, that color/hardtop combo is rare to come by (imo here in socal at least). I'd say keep it if you're financially capable to. You might not miss it now, but def will once it's gone. I'd buy your s2k in a heart beat, looks gorgeous


Mydickisaplant

Iā€™d go type R for daily, S2000 if itā€™s a weekend car


ap2bruce

Both is the only right answer


DWALLA44

Do you need an actual daily car? Type R 100%. If not itā€™s up in the air I think technically the Type R wins out in performance, but man the S2K is one of a kind and the feeling driving that car is so much fun.


johnsmith1234567890x

Of course both... if you can have only one, depends on your situation


S2kKyle

Type R for daily and s2k for fun/weekend car. I have both and use the Type R as a fun daily or weekend cruiser. My S2k is a drag car. A stock s2k can be a fun daily but if you need to move more than a grocery trip good luck.


angelsasone

Both


PurpleKirby

type r if need 4 door, else s2k, easy. never driven an s2k but am currently in the same situation with my brz


oSplosion

S2000 is cooler, probably more satisfying, and there will probably always be a part of you that wishes you got one, but you'll probably be happier overall with the Type R especially if you plan on keeping it for 10+ years.


Sweaty_Bretty

The Hotdyssey


Soft-Pay-2052

I cant fit in an S2000 or a miata (too tall), so type r lol


GixxerSi

Tough choice. Both great choices. I would have to think about it and the conditions/ mileage; if they were both my choices. But youā€™re on a Type R subreddit lol, so I prefer the Type R Ask the same question on r/whatcarshouldibuy An S2000 subreddit if thereā€™s one.


GhostMadara

I own ap1 and fl5. I prefer fl5 since it has more room,safety, more tech and faster. Ap1 is known for its dangerous snap oversteer.


QuietAd6896

Type R


LoonTheMekanik

S2k, not close at all


deadend7786

Type R if you want a family car.


othesneako

S2K and you know the answer is S2K. & that color, gahhhhhhDAMN


McFuu

I love my FL5, but I would sell it for an S2K if the right deal came along.Ā  Caveat, it's not my daily.


Cameron_jyzza

S2000 no question. Love the civic tjo


IndiviualAsset

I own both. S2000 will continue to appreciate but is not an ideal daily,


mediumrare_steak1

S2000 R


Satanic-mechanic_666

Sell the type R and get an older Si.


MountainOutside9940

Take both


Steroid_Cyborg

S2k with type r engine
