Hey everyone, I'm Galen. 
I'm 23 and I'm a web/systems analyst. I live in Voorhees, NJ. I just bought a 2000 Silverstone S2000 with Red/Black interior. It's got ~23k miles on it and it's replacing a 2005 Mazda 6 V6 that's been nothing but headaches. I'll be daily driving it, but it'll be under a cover and I only drive ~10 miles to work. I hope to garage it and buy a cheap beater when I get a house sometime in the next 2 years.
First car was an 86.5 Toyota Supra. I miss it, but they're becoming collector's items and I don't have the time or ability to do all the required maintenance like bushings etc. on a car that old. It also weighed 4 million lbs
I was reasonably active on the Supraforums for a while, but being NA was like being the redheaded stepbrother over there.

Then I leased a 2005 Mazda 6 v6 and I hated having front wheel drive and the auto trans on that car was absolute trash. The lease is running out so I bought an s2000 after deliberating between a C5 vette, S2000, G35, or turbo miata.

It has a few condition issues such as scratches on the front bumper. The same paint guy who did my Supra will be working on this car so it should come out great.
I don't have too many plans for modifications. I may do a PRM intake for the hilarious noise and replace the stock sound system with something slightly better. Hopefully I'll see some of you guys out at one of the meets. cheers.
