s2k. i love that car. i also dont like the wrx. there are too many wrxs running around. plus an s2k makes 240hp na on 4 cylinders and a wrx makes around 180whp(dont know actual numbers) turbo on 6 cylinders. the f20c is the most powerful fourbanger you can buy, and you can bolt on a supercharger if you want even more power.

So, so wrong.
First, the most egregious error: A WRX is a turbo 4-cyl, 2 liters.
Yes, an S2000 makes 240 crank hp. A WRX makes 227 crank. A WRX does indeed make about 180 whp, but it's putting that to 4 wheels. An S2000 probably makes somewhere in the neighborhood of 190-200 whp.
Don't forget torque. An S2000 makes a measly 153 ft-lbs at the crank. A WRX makes 217 ft-lbs at the crank. While the F20C is indeed one of the most powerful 4-cyls available, it's also one of the most torqueless. *EDIT* If we're talking about "performance" vehicles. I realize that there are plenty of econobox 4-cyls out there.
So, if you're gonna try to convince him, a- Don't post misinformation; and b- Don't offer something like "i also dont like the wrx. there are too many wrxs running around". I'm sure this guy is looking for something a little more concrete to make his decisions on.

It depends on where you live, and if the car will be a daily driver or not. If you live in an area where it snows WRX would be dope. If you live in California or Florida, S2000.

Most people who own Hondas say that their cars have enough torque, until they own something that actually produces more than 125 wheel torque at 5500 rpm.

Is there any key difference between the 02 WRX and the 04 WRX beside the looks?
