Default after 8 months of looking...

I finally got one!!!!!

so I was sitting in my apartment with nothing to do one day being extremely bored, and I decided to go on the internet and look at cars for sale. I had a 2008 VW MK5 GTI w/ DSG, and was getting tired of it. First thing that popped into my head was roadster. I just moved to Miami, Florida, and I needed top down cruising. I looked up an MX5 miata, pontiac solstice, 350z, and the s2000. I found a 2005 spa yellow one with about 23k miles on it and called them up to go for a test drive. I went that afternoon and FELL IN LOVE. I got in the car and was waiting for the salesmen to come out on the test drive with me and the whole time I kept thinking "this car is f'ing sweet!" Unfortunatley I didn't have the funds for the car at that time, and I wanted to look around more. Long story short, after about 8 months of looking, I found it. 2008 silverstone s2000 with ~18k miles on it. Now i have ~20k miles on it and am loving every time I push that start button. This is the car for me. Im going to try to go to homestead test n tune this friday to see what numbers I can pull.
