That being said, the S2k is currently combatting with the Twins on my shopping list so I am keenly keeping an eye on this thread but some of the arguements are pretty hilarious.

Do some quick math, and figure out how much *total* torque is put down to the wheels.
Most people look at relative gearing and just say that both cars do roughly 40 in 1st, 60 in 2nd, and 80 in 3rd. They forget how much more aggressive the S2000's gearing is, to get the same top speed in every gear.
AP2 vs 6MT and AP1 vs 6AT is a fairly good comparison
