Bmw if it's for an everyday car. An s2000 just wouldn't make much sense to drive everyday imo.

As a weekend toy, s2000 hands down.

330CI, its about the same price as the S2000 but way more powerful than the 325CI.

Yeah, 330ci would be better. But i won't answer this question cuz i'm biased. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] (though the 330ci is still slower than the S)

The only BMW I'd buy is an M3 or an M5. So. S2K over 323CI. I'd also buy a 350Z over an S2K. SO... : )

G35 Coupe sounds like the perfect combination for you since you can't decide on an S2000 (all sport) vs Beemer (Luxury w/ decent engine)...G35= Luxury, Sport and around the same price (even cheaper) depending on options. Personally, I think its a no brainer.

S2000... the sound of the boisterous engine and sport-bike like exhaust note alone will rob my attention from THAT Beamer.

That G35 coupe sounds good to me. My friend's aunt just bought one and holy ****!! That thing is nice!!
On the other hand, I love the 325. Very luxurious and it has a pretty good amount of power. But like someone else said....I'd want an M series if I got a BMW.
Now the S2000 is a very nice car. Lots of potential, and power right off the lot. I drove my friend's S2K and he had to pry me outta the driver's seat.

What are you going for? Do you want power or looks? Daily driver or weekend car? And when all else fails......take the one with the cheapest insurance. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

S2000 baby, S2000..I hate the idea of having a four seat car and driving like you wanna race it..now if it's a M3 then I'd probably get the bimmer though.

If you can find one BMW CSL (note pic in sig).. Its a lighter version of the M3. But out of the 2, I'd say 325ci..There are more mods for it and overall looks are much better IMO.

i'd love getting a 70 grand plus CSL, but that costs at least as much as the 325 and S2000 put together.
