Default Hi, New owner starting today

Hello everyone,

I just purchased a 2005 suzuka blue s2000 this afternoon.

I absolutely love the car. Took it around and already put close to 100 miles on it.

Plenty of experiences on just the first day of ownership.

Had two random people compliment me on my car.

Had passengers from a truck toss soda cans at me on the freeway (Don't worry I backed off and luckily none of them struck my car)

Felt good that I was able to drive the car back by myself from the dealership even though I'm just starting to learn stick.

This community has been awesome. On thurs I went to the socal pasadena meet and that experience made it perfectly clear; I just couldn't hold out any longer on buying this finely crafted machine.

Hope to hear from and meet up with more members in the near future.

What's with pickup trucks and can throwing jerks? I had it happen to me once too.

Anyway, congrats on the new ride. Welcome.

The steering is so presize you can "dodge any soda can" that's thrown at you

Have FUN driving your S2000

socal, where it's very highly likely that you run into other s2000's each time you go out.

I hope the one I stalled next to didn't laugh too hard at me.

Welcome s2kxier and congrats on your purchase! I'm also from So Cal - L.A. to be exact. Have you considered joining an S2K club? I'm looking for a few local owners to hang with.
