Finally, after eight years...
Well I've wanted one since they first came out, and the wait was worth it! I'm in love with this car! I bought my 03 back in early December with 47k miles and just the usual S2K wear and tear (top worn slightly, improperly sized and bald rear tires 
, worn driver side lower seat bolster) but nothing major. She was bone stock sans a K&N drop-in filter when I got her but I have since added a set of Tein S-Tech springs, Proxes T1-R 245/45 rear tires, an alignment that's between the US and Euro specs, a set of 08 CR all black "S 2000" badges for the fenders, and just ordered my OEM lip. The car is amazing and I'm having a blast learing to drive it!

Welcome. Interesting pics.
Black looks so sharp when kept clean... Make sure you stop by the wash and wax forum for all the detailing tips. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=433656

Thanks Guys. Black is by far the best color, just ask any one who owns a black one LOL 
Keeping her clean is hard work, especially around here (I live in a very dusty area) I'm constantly battling fine scratches and swirls, I'll check out that link and hopefully learn some new tricks!

Hello there !
Greetings from Malta.
The title of your post caught my attention. It sums up the same feelings I have had about owning one. Finally, mine has arrived and you may see it along this link https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=605738
Congrats on your "Black Beauty" and the cool pics.
I, like you, am having a blast learning to drive it. Enjoy it and be safe always (watch out for the snap oversteer if you push it too much with the gas when cornering)
