if you only wanting a faster car for outline blistering speed, why not get a tuned evo, scoob or skyline?
the na is shit at top speed, 135leptons as for the turbo at 150leptons.

Prefer an NA vx220 personally, too many people discount them because of the turbo.

dont forget with the NA you have the potential to supercharge it at stage 1 = 220bhp ish
and you could do that and buy a NA for the same price as just the turbo.

I've always wanted to know what these cars are like to live with - is getting in/out really annoying / embarassing?
Say if you're taller than 6ft? What's quicker out of the NA 220 vs the S2000?

60 = vx
100 = s2000
1/4 mile = s2000

I've read many times about teh S2000 being quite skittish when turning from one direction to the other. Also a little oversteary and doesn't give any info as to when its going to let go. it just goes.... But just various motoring press (and a few visable vids on YT).
S2000 as a daily drive. I prefer the looks tbh too.
But the NA 220 would be quicker round the track I think. Just don't include too many straights  (Much to the fact, your never gonna really get to 130 in the VX, OR S2000 on a racetrack, maybe Thruxton, but then still doutbfull.).
even on Snettertons 1km straight, your only looking at 110-120 tops...

ive been in both and yes the turbo is faster, doesnt feel like it but it is, but everything else is the same, id even go as far to say the na is slightly better at corners due to its lower weight and better suspension setup.
Am i allowed to prefer the Turbo?
