LMFingAO.

First of all, I never said I didn't want an S2k. Would I take that one? Sure... the first thing I'd do is put it on eBay and buy me one from the dealer. God knows what I'll do with the rest... maybe buy my good friend a new Dodge Viper.

Second of all, JDM is overrated and in most cases, a waste of money just to "stand out" and be another ricer on the street. Oh look I, my body kit, CF hood, mirros, steering wheel, and oil cap is "JDM". Does that make it special due to where the money is spent? No. Not to me. Oh look, my JDM B18CR is better than your USDM B18C5. JDM is the same thing with the bigger price tag which makes a lot of JDM stylers, 2nd class ricers. Like I said, in most cases JDM is overrated, so I'm not saying everything JDM has no uniqueness. Some people take it too far, and in the wrong way.

Third of all, I'm not hating on the car - obviously this thread is basing it's judgement on how it looks, not how it performs. Now you know what I think of how it looks, back to my previous statement:

GayDM.

Car is fly as hell...i do not like the red strip on the front bumper. The wing fits nicely I think. Everyone trys so hard not to be "rice" that they completely disregard everything else. Don't hate if you dont have **** to back yourself up.

It's all a matter of opinion - hate if you must. Not everyone likes a 18,000 RPM redlining Honda that still suffers from a torque handicap or cars that try to look unique but can't.

(PROD AGAIN)

Not that i buy JDM, i do not condone dropping large quanities of money for a name.
I got my four piece tie bar kit for 88 dollars, where as if i bought it from a JDM company such as spoon/mugen it would have cost me about 500 or more.

BUT! to prove a point that you are incorrect when you said JDM and USDM is the same thing, wait.. i'll quote you directly.

this is the first time I see this kind of wing actually goes on a car...

but I wonder if this is the real MUGEN S2000 or just some S2000with mugen sticker?

first of all, MUGEN s2000 will have steering wheel on the right?

also, do you people know Chrisler is having a new sport car which will have aluminum wing stoke?

The JDM B18CR makes 200PS. When you translate 200PS into HP, it's 197. That engine does not make 215HP. The JDM K20A makes 220PS which is approximately 217HP stock. Your #s prove nothing, especially for the fact that both cars (USDM DC2R and JDM DC2R) do the same times.

Like I said again...

JDM and USDM - at least in this sense = the same.

Very true. Why the USDM engines have #s on them is just another stupid marketing reason.

just that JDM is rare here so people like it, so if you have USDM in Japan, japanese will be amazed.

but they are same, same design.
