Default First S2K experience

Hello all. My name is John, I'm from King, NC (near Winston Salem). I've been debating a new car for some time and after a lot of reading, settled on an S2000. I've been registered on the boards for a little bit, and have been digging through them before that. Let me share a little bit about me:

1) I can use the search button.
2) I will not ask which is better, AP1 or AP2.
3) I will not ask which exhaust is the best.
4) I can use the search button.
5) I will not ask if it will beat a Mustang GT in a drag race.

Now that that's out of the way .

A local S2K owner (Golden Eagle, for those who know him) was kind enough to introduce me to the driving experience on an S2K. And wow, words can't describe it. I love it for all the same reasons I'm sure you all do.

I'll be buying mine in a few months, though I will have to drive an AP2 to decide first which one I like better. The one I drove was an AP1. Downshift = . Now I have to drive the AP2 to see if the same is true there .

Everyone on the forum was like "You can hear it going in to VTEC, its so cool" and I was like yeah yeah. But wow, experiencing it is so much different. I was riding along, and when VTEC kicked in I was like "Wow, you can hear it going in to VTEC. That's cool!"

Lots smaller than expected. Felt like a little toy car. I like . But yeah, reading about it and driving it proved to be two different worlds.

Thanks again Jay for the experience .

Glad you enjoyed your drive of the S, they are definitely awesome cars that are very fun to drive. I also like the introduction about yourself and the reiteration of "I can use the search button."

It's nice that you enjoyed it so much, my first time driving an S2000 wasn't as nice cause I had just come from owning an STI and I was expecting a little more power from it, but I got used to it. This car is a keeper, have fun with it .
