Default Finally found one! New to the family

Hello everyone, my name is Renzo and I just purchased a 2002 s2000. I've been a fan of these vehicles for a very long time.
I have owned several Honda/Acura in my life and have always appreciated them. Had a couple Integra DAs, EK civics Si and my last one was a 2001 Integra type R. Started a family so had to get rid of the type R (one of the most regretful moment of my life). Kids are now older so I have time for a new toy to play with. And my garage is newly renovated so there is plenty of room for the s2000.

Looking to meet new people, learn about the s2k which I don't know tons about (will spend the next few weeks reading all these posts) and just enjoy this car that I have always wanted.

Located in San Jose CA.

Thank you all in advanced.

Welcome!

Just an FYI, if you need work done on the S, look into Driving Ambition in Rancho Cordova outside Sacramento. They race NSXs and S2000s and are quite proficient in all things S2000 unlike dealers.

Welcome,
Is this the one that was for sale in Sunnyvale? If so, I think you got a great deal on it. Looks like it was well taken care of with a lot of dealer maintenance records. For quick and easy things to do I would look into getting the @Billman250 timing chain tensioner since the mileage is up there.
Retorquing the rear axel nuts, Power Acoustik CP71W Carplay Unit with the Modifry DCI (it's on sale).

Look forward to more photos.

Yup this is the one in Sunnyvale. I'll look into the timing chain tensioner and checking the rear axle nut. Thank you!

Welcome! The S2K scene in the Bay Area is still pretty active. They usually post events on bayareas2k on Instagram.

Or, you can just sign up to any track day and you'll probably see plenty of S2K owners around
