Hello,I'm new to the forum and will soon be looking to purchase an S2000. I've owned a few sports cars including a Honda Prelude, some old Datsun Z cars and one month in a Lotus Elise thanks to a trusting friend. I grew up in the 80's with my Family always owning Hondas so I know what reliable, well built cars they are. I am focused on buying an S2000 in the near future but have never driven, ridden in or even looked inside one in person. There are a few around town here in Charleston WV but they are never on any lots and seldom if ever for sale around here. I know I'm going to have to travel to buy one which is fine. In the meantime I would love it if a member was willing to show me theirs and possibly take me for a ride in it. I'm normal, I swear...lol. So are there any members in the area who would like to show their S2000 off?

Thanks

Jon

might have a bit better luck in the regional subforums. I'd post the more direct one, but not too clear on where chareston lies on that list. but regardless welcome to s2ki

How was the Lotus? I have been keeping my eye on them.

 

I loved the Lotus. I never driven an S2000 so I can't compare. I really haven't driven a lot of fast or high end sports cars, just older Z cars with modified suspension and decent handling. For me it was the greatest automotive experience of my life. A real head turner and conversation peice here in WV where it was the only one around. To me it felt like a street legal racing cart. Felt like I was wearing the car, extremely agile. The ride was acceptable to me because I like a firm ride. At 6'2", I surprisingly was comfortable enough to drive all day. In fact I never wanted to stop.
I would expect the S2000 to be a slightly less agressive version with similar high reving characterisctics and lower maintainence costs.
