The S2000 traveling 35 MPH can easily pass the STI traveling at 25 MPH

The only winner between the 2 is the insurance company

Me: Should I get a Honda S2k or a Subaru STI?? Scotty Killmer: 94 Toyota Celica

Mazda Miata or Dodge Magnum SRT8: Which is better for offroading?

When you’re choosing between such different cars, you’re not really choosing what car you’ll be driving as much as you’re choosing which kind of person you’ll be.

My daily is a Girl with the STI package

s2k any day. after dailing a motorcycle anything with a windscreen and a trunk is a luxury vehicle for me.

You can't even find a S2000 with low mileage anymore for an affordable price

Wanna go even more nonsensical? Compare a Ferrari F355 (pre-engine fire fix) to a Yugo. They both break a lot and want to LITERALLY kill their owners, so maybe they've got more in common then I think.

S2000 cuz f**k it! My kids can Uber themselves to school

'14 STI owner here with 70K miles. I am the original owner and have 0 mods. The only mod I am considering is 1" lift springs. I get so many confused looks at subie meets!

8:31 “one hundred percent!” *Joe Rogan has entered the chat*

"I get a feeling you want more." Well, yeah. Duh.

Judging from RCR's descriptions on these cars, I am apparently an S2K guy I love me some Gj Wentworth jingles

Should I get a 2010 Ferrari 458 or a 1989 Reliant Robin for my daily/part time uber vehicle?

S2000 for me - sportscars shall never die!

Surprisingly i actually had this dilemma....i decided to go with the S2000 and don't regret my decision a single bit.

Yo I just clicked on this thinking it was an old video... Can’t say I’m surprised or disappointed for that matter...

The S2000 holds it's value really nice.

"...has its head up its a$$ so far it uses hemorrhoids as sunglasses" LOL I'm stealing that...

“I have an annuity but I need cash now...”

Your heart says get the S2000, but your head says STi.

5:02 the pitfalls of open-air driving

funniest rcr in a long while, bring back the weird. Also comparisons are cool i can dig it

The _STI_ if you vape and the _S2000_ if you smoke grape Prime Times.

8:45 s2000 driver uses cocomo by beach boys Corvette owner gets *CONFUSED BY NOSTALGIA* Corvette owner flees the battle

Both can be dailys. Get the s2000 if you dont have friends. Get the subaru if u vape.

That S2K will pair nicely with my Fit. That would be a dream.

Thank you Prime Driven. For not getting/modding a subaru thats one wrong pull away from exploding.

"In conclusion, get an STI"... *Checks playback bar* "I get a feeling you want more"... Yes, yes I do

That "feels slow when driving fast" is so accurate. My buddy got a slamming deal on his 07 STi because the previous owner didn't like how he looked down at his speed and was going so fast with his kids. So he traded it for a Camery.

I never even see S2000 on the roads. At all.

A vaper and a miata NNNNGHHHHHGGGG J D M

I daily drove an s2000 for a while, In the snow and everything and I have to say with the good snow tires it did just as well as my wrx in it. Dont let the rear wheel drive fool you.

This guy needs a show

I like this format. Good change of pace. More dissimilar daily comparisons!

just wanna say that i really like this format. i really don't care that they're way different; that makes it more fun imo. would love to see some tests and races and whatnot. maybe I just want mister regular to be old-school top gear. tbh i'd love that. :3

An event horizon reference WOW What next warhammer 40k?

Holy shit I'd recognize those roads anywhere that's down the road from my house

Not only do I always enjoy watching your vids, But your fan base is probably the best there is on youtube for car media at least. The comment section is always filled with gold.

Me before watching this video: I'm fine not winning them Me: *watches video* Me: I want them now

*OMFG LMAO! NOOO You should have left it at your first stopping point. That was completely hilarious*

I love watching two cars with different speed blinkers go in and out of phase.....is that weird?

Bought an ap1 s2000 at auction for 9k with 32k miles.

Both would cause my parents to organise an Intervention so no to both.

“CLAPPING THEM CHEEKS” 👏🏽 😂

I have owned my 02 s2k for 13 years now and it’s a great vehicle. Very economical, fun to drive, and timeless looks. Never plan to sell and I keep it minty

I own an S2k and it’s a blast, an 02 w/28k. I’ve owned 2 WRXs (sorry, not STI) and they were a blast too. The WRXs were daily drivers and the 2k is a “see me with the top down” type day driver and impractical as all get out, but it’s fun, and not as forgiving. That’s why I have it. Here’s what I ran into for both, ricer challenges. Every time I’d drive any of them, some flat-brimmed wearing, fart cannon driving winged Civic or Evo wants to go. Aside from that, you can’t go wrong with either. They’re both fun, they’re both quick, and they handle well.

LMAOOO my garage is literally the poor version of these two cars. My daily is an 09 Forester (perfect for Ohio winters) and my summer car is an mr2 spyder.

I would sacrifice daily comforts for the s2000.

this was the exact choice i had to make and i chose the sti hatchback, still think about life with the s2000 instead

But ej25’s blow up all the time when they’re stock too. -A former Subaru owner😂

As someone who dailys an s2000 in Colorado. I agree with everything said here.

Great jokes, honest comparison, ideal conclusion, well done!

The s2000 will still be running 20 years from now.

Stance alone I go for the S2000, what a looker :)

Me: dying laughing Everyone else: lemme google milhouse and his hair flying in a bonestorm

Both are amazing cars, but for practicality and usability off road (if you're into that) the STI would always be my pick :)

Nice to see you change things up every now and then. Even though this was probably intended as a one time thing, you should do some more of these comparison videos and see how it turns out.

And here we have a historical view of the cars driven by all Kyles in 2007 and 2016 respectively.

Get an STI. -Mr. Regular 2019

i was actually torn between V6 Accord and NA Miata for a while

I had this same problem a few years ago. I bought the Subaru as I needed a daily. Currently going to try save up for a Honda S2000 as I have the space now for a 2nd car.

I was actually in the same situation. Now I daily a 250k 91 CRX and weekend 06 s2k. But I was doing daily with s2k about a year, then decide to need a CRX. If ur a single men like me, Don't need to move place to place often, s2k's truck actually has plenty of room for you, plus there is always passenger seat room too. I live in the south, bearly see snow down here, FYI.

I get more excited when I see an S2000. When I see an STI, I just say meh.

Dear Mr. Regular. I need some car advice. I am having trouble deciding between an Autozam AZ-1 and an M35A2 "Deuce and a Half". Which should be my daily?

Man, even in 2019, the S2000 is stunning. Too bad it was never officially imported to my country, so as of writing this comment there are 4 for sale and the cheapest is at $40k and the most expensive is at $55k USD, so sad.

Having trouble deciding between an STI and S2000... sounds like you received a letter with considerable delay from Jason Fenske (Engineering Explained) 😂😂

And here i've been unironically comparing Veloster N or mustang ecoboost for my next car..

You can turbo the s2000 and not worry about popping the motor, it is a Honda after all.

So let me get this straight. Prime driven gave away: R32 skyline gtr, Lancer evolution 9 mr, lancer evolution 10 gsr (360whp), Sw20 toyota mr2 turbo, Honda S2000 and a Subaru WRX STI Dam these guys must have some extra paper laying around..

“This is for people who think they are faster than you - This is for people who think they are better than you” this is what keeps me coming back...precise and salient

3:10 Welcome Thrillho

So u sayin get both and daily the STI while keeping the S2000 for special occasions? Agreed.

2 cars 2 winners, now that's what I call a win-win!

Love the parody of the J.G. Wentworth theme at the end! LOL!

Intro is Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood sad moment/turning point music or Attack on Titan equivalent?

Hey, you can buy a hard top for the s2k

You should TOTALLY make more VS videos!

The s2000 has been my dream car for a while now, I really hope I win.

Mr Regular, I'm having a tough time deciding between an M1 Abrams Tank and a Toyota Yaris. Which should be my daily?

0 competiton. The s2000 is built to handle more power on the stock block, and in stock Form, it's more fun and engaging than the Subaru. It's a real driver's car!

I love this format. I like seeing comparisons.

"I get a feeling you want more." ... that's what she said

Eh. Owned both. The S2000 is a lovely cocoon world where the 1999 auto shows are still going on, Honda was promising that their double wishbones would never end, and they looked to the past to give context to their present. It was the last great mechanical Honda, and it carried the torch of their 90s heritage through 2009. It sat, gathering dust in showrooms as Macpherson struts spread through Honda dealers like cancer, and the economy tanked while Honda’s greatest engineers turned grey and their race teams disbanded and hid in corners. Minivan owners waiting for their blown transmissions to be diagnosed would glance over at it while stirring their coffee and laugh at the 2600 pound anachronism which sat motionless near the soda machines, collecting hand prints from poorly minded-toddlers. That car is the last of an era that included the MR2, the CRX, the SE-R, and it’s now being defined by kids that wanted a DC2R but couldn’t force their mom’s third husband to love them enough to drop 30k on one. Meh.

STI. The S2000 is too good for 87% of PA roads. Otherwise S2K all day.

Roman pulling some barbershop quartet action on us. The $5K is pretty cool as people usually don't consider the tax they have to pay when they win something.

I love the Event Horizon and Bonestorm references in one episode - is this how our generation winga-dingas?

I like the STI but I take the S2000 because it has VTEC and RWD

soooo... does this run afoul of the sweepstakes laws requiring no purchase for entry or its gambling? because i've yet to see anywhere in the entry rules and info the bits that make it comply with such laws to make it not gambling under federal law. website says you must buy something from the site to enter. federal law sweepstakes law enacted in what, 1981? consider this forbidden. re; fair trade commissions laws on advertising and sweepstakes (prize promotions); A legitimate prize promotion does not require any purchase or payment of money for a consumer to participate or win. If a purchase or payment of money is required for eligibility for a prize, it is not a prize promotion; it is a lottery, which is generally unlawful under federal and state lottery laws. edit: annnd i finally find the require legalese. its sort of intermixed and buried nicely in a way that makes it not so obvious. cute. main gieaway page still pointedly says purchase required, this is misleading and shady. there's a reason there's always a bit on the main page of each giveaway/sweepstakes that says something like; 'no purchase necessary see rules for details'. its in the rules page, sure (though not 100% obvious), but 99.99% of people never bother to read those, which is why anyone should be putting the * thing like allll the big places do (see@ the various monopoly giveaways that countless major corps do, and similar) because someone took someone to court years aback for that very thing. as i recall the court case was denied, but the judge did warn the contest holder to make sure it was obvious. i'd link to the case if i could find it, but what i'm getting fed back to me is unrelated crap, and i don't have access to one of the law libraries. /shrug

Well, was not expecting that! Fun video! ...Subaru, please bring BACK THE HATCH YOU HEATHENS!!!

When you mentioned the J. G. Wentworth jingle I didn’t know how it went, but then at the end song I was like “oh, yeah... that stupid ass jingle.”

Cross the best of the two and get a Saab 900 Convertible.

S2000 all day, beautiful car....

Love your videos RCR! Really like the jdm car reviews, hope you do more of them!

sti for practicality purposes, set up some all-weather tires, rally performance upgrades & you're basically set for life there

Buy both, I wish I could afford 20k on a S2K but I can’t rn

OK Mr. Regular, show me where on the doll the S2000 touched you

The Milhouse reference made my entire fucking day. You, sir, are a legend.

Well....an honest, well-rounded, wholesome comparison. Appreciated
