best thing to do would be test drive both.
i prefer the vx to the s2000 for looks and presence, but getting in and out gets tiresome.. what i would give for some proper doors lol
the performance figures of the na and s2000 and almost the same, there are good points and bad points for each..
and as for the proper vx adam, i managed to keep up with jason in that stage4 weapon he has around the lakes but he disappeared when the corners finished lol
ive spend about 2.5k now on mine in total (about 1.5k engine) and once it gets rolling road tuned i should be looking at about 170 - 180 bhp if not more.
so it gives you an idea of how much you might want to put away for tuning.

Hey Chris, whats it like getting in and out, is it a blag? What it like say if your in a car park with cars both side can you get out? I can sacrifice this if the handling is much better than the S2000 but if its marginal difference id probly go for the easier option, s2000 yo! but i do prefer the looks of the vx220,, this is going to be hard

S2000 is hardly comfy and luxuries; doesn't even have a bloodly clock inside!!!!!
Also the price of insurance on an s2k is silly in my experience; twice as much as my 911 c4!!

can i jsut say for all these people going only get the turbo version, just shut the fuck up for god sakes..
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.
i have a vid of someon getting in and out of one.
