Default FInally did it.

Hey everyone,

I've been wanting an S2000 for years. The idea would come and go, but never fade completely. I've had a history with late model mustangs and random muscle cars and I think it was hard for me to imagine life without a V8. But I really want to drive. And not just in a straight line. After doing tons of research there was just no question about what car to get. I still can't believe that 2.2 liter motor puts out 15 more horsepower than my first 5.0 mustang!

Anyway, I picked up the car last night. A 2005, with 60k on it. It's NFR with black interior. The previous owner took really great care of it and it almost looks brand new. Except for paint chips when you get up close. I read all the posts about them. But it doesn't take away from the experience! The car feels amazing and I am kicking myself for waiting this long. I'd post a picture but it seems silly since it is completely stock, with the exception of aftermarket brake rotors!

Looking forward to learning, modding and getting to know some other S2000 enthusiasts.

jeff

Thanks! I started that on the SVT forums when I got my 97 Cobra. Been using it ever since.
