In a couple of years (when im 21) im selling my corsa and im going Jap. Which jap car would u recommend? The two in the topic title are the ones im thinking of. I'll have a budget of around £15,000 but i want a fairly decent looking Jap car that also performs.
Any ideas

In a couple of years there may be something else you'll want

you will be lucky to get a decent 8 for that price,
id say evo 6 TME would be a better chioce ,
also are you forgetting insurance?
tbh i dont think you will get insured on either as most companys want you to be 25 beofre insuring a jap car.

Why bother even thinking of what to buy now when there will be something better/cheaper/whatever in two years time.

PMSL the s2k isn't fast ok steve the evo is silly fast as someone mentioned the other day it's as fast on the road as anything.
The s2k is not exactly sluggish with 240bhp and being a rwd 2 seater

don't see why people would want to buy an S2k when they could be just as better off in a peugeot??

Say that to the CTR owners who have been trying to find the differance between the 2 and how the S2000 is pushing more Brake Horse power

Ren if you have the money and can get insured the EVO 8 is obviously the best option of the 2, however the S2 is the best 2 seater sports car around for the money as countless mags have quoted and popular TV car shows.
I went for the S2 for the convertible roof as I have never had one and fancied it, you get loads of looks and it is quick ignore the comments from Steve
