When you compare a standard s2 with an rs2k the rs2k is the better car, fact.

I speak from personal experience, if it hadn't been for my xr4x4 dropping to 5 cylinder's, i would of owned a mint rs2k. I ended up owning a shite s2 instead.

i always liked the rs2000 i was disappointed when they bigged it up the rs2000 is back only 2 find out its front wheel drive
but they do look good & yours is a very nice example well done
p.s. i voted for the rs1800 as worst lol

I think its mostly people expecting too much because its an RS, but its still only a 2.0 16v n/a, your never going to get a rocket ship are you.
