(This topic was the original thread which gathered the first Greek S2000 Owners and led to the creation of the Greek S2000 Community & Forum. For those who are interested to find out how our community was brought to life, all you have to do is go through the whole topic. Just for the record, the original title of this topic was "The Unofficial Greek S2000 Owners Thread" and is now renamed into "GREEK S2000 OWNERS! THE STARTING POINT...", just only to remind us how our Greek S2000 Community was created.)

Hello everyone.

Since there is no Official Greek S2000 Owners Thread let start an unofficial one and see how many we are here!

Not only Greek S2000 Owners are welcome here, but every Honda S2000 fan.

[AquilaEagle]

If this is the only one, i guess it is official

How many S2000 in Greece do you know?

[s2kthekiller]

portugal all the way

[energetic]

There are quite a lot, but I dont have any official numbers because some of the are imported as well.

And believe me, we Greeks are quite crazy with cars.

So shall I change the title into "The OFFICIAL Greek S2000 Owners Thread"?

[slalom44]

I know that I don't count, but I'm a 2nd-generation Greek (my Yiayia & Papou from both parents are from Greece).

[energetic]

Thats ok everyone is welcome here plus your roots are greek.

Am trying to bring this thread alive but its a bit hard I see.

I was born in greece but came to Aus when I was 3 months old.. I think that makes me first gen.

Another Greek S2000 owner here! But I live in Houston though. Last year when I visited Greece I only saw one S2000, I was dissapointed =[ Where are the rest of them!

[energetic]

There are more now. You will see them next time. Everybody is in love with the S here!

[AlexC]

I'm half Greek - but no longer an S2000 owner

I was in Greece for the Olympics, and wrote a thread about the S2000's I spotted:

Athens S2k Sightings

[energetic]

Hey! I just saw the pics. Nice S2000's.

The reason you have seen only the silver one is because Honda Greece delivers only silver/grey, red and black.

Apart for the Silver S2000's, I have seen many black S2000's as well.

Other colours I have seen is three red S2000's, one Suzuka Blue and three Monte Carlo Blue (including mine). One of those is still for sale. And one yellow as well. That one was sold.

Hope you enjoyed the Olympic Games.

Sure did - saw the English boys winning gold in the four at the rowing, Kelly Holmes getting gold in the 800m, some world records in the cycling, and Paula Radcliffe dropping out of the marathon.

Also saw the Greek lady getting silver in the triple jump.

And Dean Macey winning High Jump and 400m in the decathlon.

I thought all the venues and facilities were great, catering / beer etc was very reasonably priced, and the whole thing was very friendly

[energetic]

Thank you very much. Unfortunately I was very busy at this period to see the events in person but I managed to go and see the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

[steve_the_greek]

Another half Greek here ! Maybe driving the S2000 to Greece this coming summer. Would be cool to meet up - as long as someone speaks better English than my Greek !

[energetic]

@steeve the greek

Dont worry about it.

When are u coming?

Hello there,

I am a Greek/recent/happy owner of a formula red S2K and just joined the S2KI forum. What a fantastic forum to participate in!!!. My friend energetic you just caught me redhanded (I was sending to another Greek, Aris a pm asking him how we can arrange to meet and get organized-maybe you should pm him too). I know there are not so many S2K in Greece (it is unnecessarily expensive!!!) but the car trully deserves a local organised group of enthousiasts!!!

VAG

[energetic]

I have PM Aris as well in the past but I havent got a reply yet.

Where is your location? I have seen three red S2000 so far. The last one I saw it with a hardtop on in Mikrolimano,Pireas. Was it you?

We should meet.

[agisd]

Prospective owner here... trying to sell the car I drive at the moment.

For the Greek guys in the US I need some help to locate a nice used S2000 (2002+, I prefer 2004).

When I was in Greece last summer I saw one of the nicest S2000 there: the black 2003 S of npart (he is registered here but not a frequent poster).

Not directing this at you, but I have to say that a lot of Greeks I spoke to were very very disappointed that so many Americans stayed away from the Olympics, due to terrorism scare stories and lack of faith in the ability of Greece to police the Games

[aris]

Hi there guys

[nik2000]

hi there,
yes another greek in love with his S. I believe that there are many s2000s in greece, at least in Athens, compare to our population! what u think?
