Title: 2008 85k miles CR or 2005 23k miles s2k base?
Post by: thePoster on August 15, 2015, 12:49:48 PM: Between the two, only a 2k diff in price or so, which would you choose? I'm kinda conflicted at the time. Would be nice to just get both.

I like the hardtop but dang if you topless and it rains? For get it.

Decisions decisions

Up to you, your money, your choice...Plus there's that "practical" factor of being able to carry more than two people that you brought up a while back? What if you need to bring your parents somewhere?

Which one would I choose?

Neither as I already have a vehicle that can carry 2 people that's why more enjoyable to ride than those.

But still more practical than having to wear a backpack it tying some package to the seat!

To you perhaps, but it really depends on who you talk to as "practical" is subjective so it's not the same for everyone across the board as I've pointed out several times in the past.

For example: you think owning multiple vehicles is practical but some don't think so as they think it's a hassle when it comes to ownership cost (insurance, maintenance, etc), and some also think it's a waste of space as one or more of the vehicle just sit and collects dust.

Bottom line is, what's "practical" for you may or may not be for the next person.

I am surprised however that you would considered a two person vehicle after complaining how unpractical it is since you can't pick up your parents and transport them in it or that the seats can't recline... ???

Post by: Boost on August 15, 2015, 10:56:08 PM: Either one is good. I don't like CR for the wing & the no soft top option. The base model is good and you can make it better than the CR. All on what you want and like.

Post by: Envy2 on August 17, 2015, 12:36:55 PM: If racing take the base model. If you are plan on keeping it stock and as a garage queen take the CR. In 10 years that 86K miles won't look so bad.
