I have an S2000 and a hawkeye STI with an Andy Forrest remap. my s2000 has spoon suspension.

S2000 feels more sporty inside.

Hawkeye STI is brutally quick compared to S2000 (but mInes is mapped).

S2000 likely to hold value much better but not as practical as the STI. The S2000 is better on fuel.

They are really different cars! I love both! S2000 is more special inside.

If you can afford it buy both?

if not that's a tough one. I really suggest you drive a scooby and see how you feel. The S2000 is an amazing car though so think hard.

If its speed you want s2000 are more commonly supercharged these days. S2ki.com has tons of info on the uk part.
