Default Hello from the Great PNW!

Hello everyone!

Just bought my 2002 Grand Prix White s2000 and have instantly fell in love with it! A little hesitant about giving it gas in corners, i feel like its just going to whip out from me, then again it has been raining a lot That and i cant get my mind over how high it revs up.. I'm use to that on a motorcycle, but in the car i feel like i need to shift when i hear it around 5k.. I feel like the engine is going to shoot a piston through the hood haha

I kind of accidentally came across this car, i was looking for something economical and had more than 2 seat. The car i had come to look at was sold and they forgot to take it off their website.

I was never a huge Honda fan, i think that might be cause of all the 90's civics with 3in exhaust tips that made me feel that way. To much noise, not enough movement. But always admired the s2000 line.

This is my first car that actually has some umph to it, before this i have owned my Jeep Wrangler (and two corolla's) and have been a fan of off road, rather than on.

Don't know why the pictures ended up so hazy.

Was actually thinking about coming to the Monday meet up, so i might see some of you there.

Pictures are uploaded, anyone know where to get a decent patch or make one? I bought a car cover last night worried about this rain we are having today.

Welcome, and congrats on the car!

There are a fair amount of active s2000 owners from Washington here on the forum, and it is always good to get more

I hope to see you at the meet this Monday, I should be able to make it as well.
On another note, hopefully we get a drier stretch of weather, my car has stayed parked in the garage all, but a couple days this year.
