well, the Boxster is ugly, the slowest, and costs over $40k, which is probably too much. The 350Z Roadster is $2000 more than the S2000, and he has to have a convertible.

The 350Z has more power, but it's also heavier. The S2000 has a better power/weight ratio. So my only concern is the torque. They upped the torque last year, so it should be sufficient. The S2000 should be quicker around the corners, and all in all, more fun to drive.

The S2000 has a more conservative look, where the 350Z looks like some anime junk. The dashboard on the 350Z looks pretty funny.

I think he could be sold on a test drive.
