Stuck on my next car purchase. Thoughts?

Well once again I'm looking at getting another car. After owning 3 7thgencivics, its time I moved on to something else. I'm looking at getting another car by next spring and I might still keep my 03 EX as a daily driver. If not I'll get a 92-95 coupe. But anyways on with the topic. I'm stuck between two cars. I'm either going to get a 97-98 white ITR or I'm going to get a 00 S2K. I was pretty set on gettting the ITR, but after talking to my buddy Chris(aka Cantaffordrice) I'm stuck with what to get now. The ITR will be in the price range of 14K-17K and the S2K will be around 20K-22K. I'm not to worried about spending a little bit more money for the S2K, but I don't know which one to get. I love the S2k for the RWD and convertible top. But the ITR is rare and I don't see that many of them. If you could get either one, which would you get and why? And does anyone know of a site for ITRs? I know about S2k.com. Thanks.

The ITR is overrated and then some. Since you'll be keeping your Civic, which is a practical car, get the impractical one. S2K. ITRs might be rare, but Integras are as common as air. The S2K is just flat out AWESOME, and that's the only choice in my mind.

Well I've been checking out S2ki.com all evening and I'm loving the car more and more. I'm hoping I'll be able to find one for a good price around Feb '04. But I'm still thinking about an ITR.

i would probably go for the s2k, its less practical than a civic. btw, are you leaning towards hondas? or are you trying to move onto another manufaturer.

Im starting to move into the nissan fan service. im loving nissan more and more everyday...even more than honda....

Well I'm now open to pretty much anything. I'm going to get a qoute from my insurance this week about the S2K. And from the way they are, I might not be getting one for a while. I refuse to pay more a month for insurance than a car payment.

I'm thinking about a 02 WRX right now. Insurance isn't that bad on them, and I saw a few for sell in my area for 14K with low miles. So, I might go with it. All I have decided is that I want my next car to be RWD or AWD. No more FWD.
