Default S2000 your only car?

So Cal is a weird place... everyone drives everywhere, and yet it's a horrible place to have a nice car.

Who here has to drive the S2000 everywhere they go? I'm asking because my beater just broke And I don't know what to do....

It's my only....but after driving the S I would hate to drive anything else, esp. in CA when you spend SOO much time in a car...it might as well be one you love.

No beater. I had my S for three days before I turned it into a work truck.

Well, I drive my Vanquish when I need a beater...

It's not hard to have a nice car in LA when you are careful, don't valet and have friends that drive! A garage at work AND at home help, too. I have separate garage at home, and I park in a relatively paranoid manner at work to minimize door dings. I've also identified all the special, ding-free spots at the local malls.

I agree with that 100%.... but I didn't buy the car to:

take it to the grocery store where some tool can carelessly ram a shopping cart into the side

haul around grimy wheels and tires when the time comes for an upgrade

go shopping for furniture at IKEA, or hardware at Home Depot

In a perfect world where everyone could park, and everyone could open doors nicely, and nobody would cut your top while you're at a baseball game.... yeah, I'd drive the S2000 everywhere I could.

*sigh*.... I think I need a new beater
