[QUOTE=Adam]The boxster S is faster 0-60 and definately faster on a highway roll than a S2000. S2000's suck on highway rolls so I hear because they don't have any torque. S200's have similar weight and way less TQ and less Hp than a 03 boxster S.

An S2000 weighs less than a Boxster S. A Boxster S weighs about 3,000 lbs. S2000s are down around 2800. Regardless, at freeway speeds weight doesn't matter nearly as much as it does from a standing start.

Discounting for the moment that "racing" on the freeway is idiotic, both cars will be pretty even unless one of the drivers chooses the wrong gear.
