Default Melbourne S2K owners - please help me out :)

Hi guys and gals,

I was wondering if someone could help me out and have a look at a car for me. I had some sense talked into me last nite by a good friend and it is VERY hard to justify buying a 100+k car for the performance of a 55k car.

So the time has come... I am buying an S2000. I found one on the net that I like and just wanted someone to check it out for me if you have time. (as I am currently in Sydney)

Please PM me if you can help out and I'll let you know the details, etc. And when I drop into Melbourne to pick it up, of course the drinks are on me

Yeah lifting the front suspension everytime I go over those speedhumps on my street is a pain in the butt. And my girlfriend has trouble getting into it cause of those damn mini-skirts and those LOOOOONG legs

Good move Iggy.... I just hope the S2K you're looking at buying, has not had the hard life your ITR has?!

I'm guessing you'll be retaining the red beast, for mainly track duties?!

Iggy, I assume the reason you're looking in Melbourne as well as Sydney is that you're very keen to get a Yellow one rather than any other colour. Is that right?

Well yeah. Also I saw this one for sale and liked what I saw (ie the extra bits). Esp. considering I have a buyer for the exhaust + extractors + ECU )

I just want to sell the body kit too... and that all in all should pay for my Comptech
