Honda S2000

How are these cars?

I must admit, i'm quite tempted. I know it's going to lack the pure straight line performance of the e36 M3 i'm currently driving, however to have a newer car with less miles and a soft-top is really tempting.

Are there any downsides to these cars, and is it possible to get any more power from the car whilst still retaining reliability?

I would want an earlier car (mostly because I couldn't afford a newer one,) and partly as I'd prefer one which handles as it was designed to.

What kind of price can I get a decent UK spec car for? Any advice?

Or should I keep the M3? Thanks

It's an older M3 Evo (E36), but has a couple of modifications so is making nearly 300bhp at the wheels.

What I don't like about it is it feels heavy and it feels old. Controls aren't crisp anymore and it costs massive amounts to run.

What are the running costs of the S2000 going to be like?

The M3 averages about 22MPG which isn't too bad, but it won't run on anything less than 97 octane.
