Default Everyone come and feel sorry for me

I have come the realization that I will probably never be able to afford an S2000(new at least). This just really pisses me off, because I want one in the worst way. The only way I could do it is to sell my civic and my engine swap, use that as a down and still pay out the ass for payments. Now I hear all these rumors about changing the S2000 for next year and that pisses me off even more because I didn't want to buy one until I was 25 so I could get a better insurance rate. Anyway really no point to this just blowing off steam.

I had to wait until I was 33 to get one of these priceless cars, so why shouldn't you wait a while too ??????

Hey, I dream of S, I've been waiting till I turn 25 too. I just turned 25 less than a month ago, but decided to use my money as down payment for a place to live in.
Another year... another year... maybe three...
While I originally wanted to buy the car new, I've decided that perhaps it makes more sense (financially) to buy one used.

Here, used cars (especially Hondas) hold their values pretty well...

I have always had to buy PRACTICAL cars and now I am past friggin' 30 something and am just now preparing to get my own S. Of course, I've been driving my husband's for about a year and a half which has made it a little better. I didn't even own my first Honda until I was 20.

But I do appreciate how bad you must feel. At least you have many years to buy many cool cars down the road. Maybe you'll buy an "S" when they are considered "classics".
