Default 2nd time around?

Hello guys&girls,

Mo here. I thought I was going to disprove the "they all come back" ownership theory. Like many before me, I could not. I'm expecting to pick up a clean example of a 07 NFR this afternoon in Culpeper, VA. While my first S2000 wasn't heavily modded or had crazy parts on it, it was a nice example of an OEM+ AP1. I intend to go a similar route with this new one. I'm blessed enough to be able to have this one without it being a DD. My current fleet includes a 07 GTI and a 09 Jeep Wrangler.

I'm looking forward to [re]connecting with some of the tenured members and meeting the new guys. But mostly, I'm looking forward to being top down in the S2.

- M

My former S....

I'm not too particular on colour - the only colour I can't get behind is Suzuka Blue. I was really hoping to score a nice, bright coloured one for my next S and this one just fit the bill perfectly!

Nice car, good luck with it.
I too am a second time owner. Had an 05 Rio Yellow Pearl which I never should have sold
and just got an '02 sebring silver. Would have loved a brighter color as well but car
was too good to pass up.

Car looks like it has BF Goodrich All Season Tires on it.

Hi and thank you for the well wishes. Unlike the first one, this one is not a daily and will be primarily used as a fun car. It lives safely in my security monitored garage. You are correct; the S has brand new (1 week old) BFG All Season tires courtesy of the P/O. I have not looked at the size, but I'm sure they are stock. I've never had these on a S before. I used to run RS3's if I recall correctly on my AP1.
