I did a reseach some people said the stock vs stock dc2 will smook the dc5 because the wight is that right ?

over all which one is better ( reasons please) ?

the DC2 is a better track day car
the DC5 is a more comfortable car to live with as a daily driver
either one will be enjoyable to drive
either one will get its ass handed to it by any number of cars available from other manufacturers
either one will be a giant brightly shining beacon screaming STEAL ME!!!!

"better" is relative. i could tell you reasons why each would be better than the other. what do you want out of it? what are you going to do with it? what is your budget?

me personally would go for a DC2.. dont care for the DC5 body

nah proven through and through the DC2 is a much better track chassis.

DC5. It has a much better motor with more potential. It has a 6 speed for more relaxed highway cruising. It isn't as likely to be stolen. It is more luxurious and more refined in every way. It's a newer car (designed in the early 00's vs early 90's. You won't be paying a huge premium for "Type R" status.
