For all our sakes, please be careful. This is not a good first sports car, let alone first car at all, and its especially not a good car to learn to drive stock on.

Do a search here on wrecked S2000's and hopefully gain respect for this car... it has bitten many people in the past and if you're not careful it will bite you too.

Good luck man

PS: How old are you and who paid for it?

Yes, i do respect the s2000 just like i respect S600/800 and NSX, the thing is this s2000 the first car owned by me, but not the first car i ever driven.
but thanks for your heads up.

ps. i'm 19 and my parents paid for the downpayment, after that its all on me

Never said its the first car you've driven (I should hope not!), but when you own a car for a little while you get comfortable with it, and when you get comfortable with it you start to take chances. That will be exactly the moment you end up in a lightpole.

Just sayin man....be careful and save the racing for the track where it belongs.

i totally understand and agree.
i'm not one of those who just supercharge of turbo their vtecs and doing meaningless highway rolls or drags.
race track is where s2000 belongs.
