Hands down the coolest looking car!!!💪🏿😤

😍😍😍

Congratulation for this analysis and return of experience. It is exactly the same questions and answers I make... and end up 4 years ago with a Honda S2000 2004 AP1 F20C Phase 2 (in Europe we have the AP1 2.0l , red ligne 9000 rpm with the AP2 body) in mint condition and 75 K km (now 98 K km) and I am still on the honeymoon with it.

I had the same thought when I got my ‘19 Nismo. I love having an N/A and unsure if I want to boost. Almost full bolt on and I like to keep it looking stock. Updated the screen to give me CarPlay while maintaining the OEM look. And a white Nismo is a perfect flamboyant JDM car. Maybe in 5 year I might consider it, or even go the other way and try to get a 300Z.

Nice video. You made a lot of good points. I personally think that if your primary goal is to have fun, you can't go wrong with either option. However, the S2K can be also considered an investment, but like you said, the ND Miata has more "livable power" which is something to really consider as well. The sketch factor of older cars is also a good point. It seems so much easier to go with the ND Miata for peace of mind, modern amenities/safety features, ect. Although, just as you pointed out, the S2000 has that rarity factor that turns heads, but paying the price of a new sports car for something that old is conflicting (although the nicer S2000s are going to continue increasing in value).

new sub. good video 🫡

I've had 4 Miata's and 2 S2000 and trust me the S2000 is so much more than what a Miata offers.

370z❤💥👍

I’m 61 years old and enjoy the shit out of my stock 2020 STI. I will keep it stock as long as I own it. It’s fast enough for going from point A to point B. I drive it 90% of the time in Sport Plus with a rear wheel bias and Track Mode on and Traction Control off. This car really shines when it’s pouring rain here in Houston. I would mess with rear wheel drive cars with much more HP when it’s raining and they realize really quick that they cannot mess with an STI when the weather is less than ideal.

What exhaust do you have on there?

planning on getting a Subaru WRX STI but I do not know which year model to get the 2018 or the 2019 model as my first car. been always my dream car to own but searching through most of it have been junked up with mods.

Thank you for posting this mayne! I am on the fence between a 2019 STI or a 2021 acura integra manual tranny and a-spec w/tech pkg. Integra has 100 hp less than the sti, and the sti having hydraulic steering is a deal maker for me.

If it’s not a daily, and you plan on keeping the car stock, the s2000 is by far the better choice over the entire ND family. This is assuming you’re finding a decent condition s2000 where the paint and interior still look somewhat fresh. If it’s a daily, and you’re sub 6 foot, I gotta go ND2/3. It’s so good at handling it’s not even funny; then you got some solid modern tech in there. If you plan on modding, then I’m not your guy lol

Is this a stock exhaust? What exhaust

absolutely agree, we grew up idolizing the 350s in movies and games! Going into buying a car tho all the 350s are high mileage or customized heavily. I loved the 370 and couldn’t wait to get one with low mileage and stock, definitely a car I’m keeping for life😍 almost everytime I’m out I’ll get someone complimenting the car which is a great feeling too, good choice on the nismo!

I've had a 2021 STI for the past year. It's my daily, but i like taking it to same backroads and gravel tracks for some fun. Besides a singular oil leak at my turbo return drain pipe, it has been absolutely perfect. It does everything I need it to while also being an absolute joy to drive.

I’m torn between getting a nismo or a sport tech I’m only 18 so idk which way I should go abt picking one

U should get a pedal commander u will love it especially for the at. Makes it a lot more fun. I have roar pedal

this over a Miata any day

I’m struggling with the same decision….For me I think the final straw is the inability to mod the new z. The exhaust is almost impossible to change which is a must considering it sounds like an EV and not a sports car. 370z will be my choice

I have a 2018 370z nismo tech white with the red accent trim.. Automatic I love this car because it's true power it doesn't have a turbo I didn't like the super because it had a BMW motor the new z car turn me off with the twin turbo

Music name?

Two things are keeping my WR X. from being a dad car, no rear, AC and no remote start so I can cool the car off in these brutal Louisiana Summers before I put my toddler into a 120° car

it’s already a dads car, it’s got four doors.

This is a power point presentation for his wifes parents on why he gets to keep the car, hahahah

The 370Z is absolutely the better car.

This is how I plan on having the best of both worlds when the time comes. I hope to find a partner as understanding as everyone's in the comments. I think an unmentioned but nice and still fun family car would be the 2009-2020 Lancer Ralliart Sportsback if you are looking for a bit more room in the trunk. Same Engine as the Evo X in a different cast with the Evo 9 AWD system. Or another family car for an enthusiast would be the Infinity Q50, 4 door on the VR30DETT engine. Both are Auto, but still fun cars with the ability to perform.

I have 2018 4runner and the space in the wrx VA and VB is bigger for car seats than the 4runner. I have a 3yr old but we’ve had the 4runner since she was 1. Thought about it in depth and was in the market for one but finding the right financial options for them used sucked especially with miles. My wife has a Kia Telluride and thats like a mini van basically.

Another great vid! Congrats to you and your wife

I'm currently driving around a VA STI and NC MX5, and have been eyeing a Civic Type R or Yaris GR (I live in Australia, the closest thing to you would be the Corolla GR), what do you think of the Corolla GR chassis/motor?

When me and my wife played to start a family, we welcomed our daughter by buying a brand new 2018 WRX STI. She is 6 now, and it's still our family car. One of the best family cars for us car enthusiasts. The only other ones I'd ever consider would be a Civic Type R or Mitsubishi Evolution.

NEVER sell your cars for SUVs. Wifey wants all your cars home. 😤❤️

I have a 2018 honda sport hatchback 6mt. I always tell my wife if we need to upgrade to a bigger vehicle I will sell my car for extra cash. She always tell me no since I won't ever find one with a manual transmission anymore. But we made it work and a got a kia telluride. Those are fun to drive also.

Yay first comment. Awesome video. Can you do a video on how you wash your cars video.

I agree with you man.. this is a great car all the way around! Yours is very nice btw. previously had a 2010 370 base 6MT and i modified and tuned it.

Yeah, the 370Z Nismo is such a great car. I will crack my neck hard when I see one.

I have the same car but white and I love ❤️ it best driver car ever I have a sport exhaust and stock standard and the car is super fast stock standard it would give me bike a run for its money

going to look at a 20k mile 2017 370z nismo looks identical to yours but 6 speed it was the car that i saw in person and made me like cars been my dream car ever since,

I’m at the point of my ownership where it would make more sense for me to build the motor vs buying a new car. I’m at 155K on my 2011 (owned since 2013) and it still works fine. it’s survived many hot track days, embarrassed E92s and kept up with 1st gen GT4s. Most of the problems with the car have been permanently fixed by the aftermarket, so that’s a plus. at 50K, it was going to be an Integra Type S or CTR, but i can’t justify spending that much on a car, I actually had a WRX for a while, but i sold it because it was kinda wasteful having a second car with 4 doors and i never used the back seats. It was also pretty unrewarding to drive. So I’m going bikes instead haha.

I'm twenty four, and i'm about to buy an isma but if they change the front on the nude Nismo I might just save my money because I'll have around 25 to 30K. Around spring to summertime and that's when I'm thinking of getting the car. I don't know if I want a 2018 or a 2020, but in my area, they're around like 25 grand to Twenty grand. If they just change the new Nismo, I'm my. Just save up. Because I'll have like close to forty k by the end of next year, so I might just get that, but yeah, you know, honesty, I just don't like the look of it of the new one at least

Thanks for the review and great job. Since you came from a base 370Z, are there any suspensions mods you can recommend for street driving? My budget is $25K so that puts me out of the Nismo range. The new Z is nice, but not worth the dealer mark ups.

Great quality intro! Good content - subscribed! Hope to see the channel grow. Good luck.

i just bought a 2018 Nismo Tech with 20k miles for 33k, did I do alright?

Just got my first this week. It's the perma-smile that gets me!

Been driving my 2004 STi for the past 15 years. No cons at all...Its an amazing car

I'm glad you're keeping it the way it is. This car is perfection as is & will take care of you as long as you take care of it. The Z is a car that makes you excited to get up & drive it every day.

Thank you for this video. The practical side of me leans toward the ND due it's pricing and the fear of parts scarcity with the s2k. The ND being common is actually a strength for long-term ownership, but I have nostalgia for my turboed '95 R package, not the ND. I've owned a S/C s2000 CR in my youth also and numerous jdm/Honda cars inbetween. The cinematography and the driving vibes from this video really captures the spirit of the s2k for me. I've been debating this choice for well over a year as to which forever car I'll own. I've exhausted all my sources for opinions, but this video tipped me to the s2k, especially when you pointed out how "excited you get" when you look at it. I don't think I've ever used that perspective before for my decision making and I think it's enough to make me stick with team Honda. Hope to see more stuff from you dude!

LOVE MY 2020 STI (STAGE 3 BUILT)!!!

im glad i kept my 09 z as a toy since new and had other cars for daily driving. its almost 2025 and i only have 35k on the odo. love the Z but the engine of the new Z is tempting me.

The car looks great, I am planning on getting one of these as a daily driver, but I would have to choose a 6 speed manual, drive safe.
