This is one of my buddy from work's car. It is superb condition after 23 years. Everything in the car is still original. The paint is glossy and still like showroom clean. The interior is all stock from day one. Notice the odometer, almost 95K. I wish my S2000 will look like this in 23 years. Just want to share it with you all!!

Sweeeeeet! That exact car (year and style, I mean, not the car itself) was going to be my dream car for many years now, until the S2000 stole my heart!

Breathtaking! Thanks for sharing!

I used to own a similar car - mine was an earlier model, the '77 S, but I had an upgraded 3.0L motor (same as your buddy's). My car was also white, with black leather. The picture of the gauge cluster brings back fond memories...I started dating my wife when I drove that car...

I haven't driven his 911SC, but how does the 3.0 compare to the S2000, in speed, comfort, and overall driveability?

Beautiful car! It's always nice to see someone who takes care of their car. I'm amazed at the number of people who buy a new car but then refuse to clean it etc. That goes for alot of s2k's I've seen too...sad.
