Intro.
Hello everyone!
After years of dreaming and saving I've finally gotten my hands on a 2002 black S2000 with 80k.
I got it from a Private owner which maintained the car very meticulously and had all papers from all 4 owners.
I've had it for two weeks and am completely in love!
So far these are some of the pros and cons I have discovered. (my opinion)
PROS:
-HANDLING... Pure complete control of everything. Mind you I have not lost grip yet and am not looking forward to it. (sits on 255/40 Nitto NT05)
-SHORT SHIFTS... I had an 05 X runner before this and the difference has left me speechless... that is all.
-ROCKET SHIP... Is what I feel like I'm driving.
-SAFETY... In regards to handling and agility.
-DESIGN... So many fluid accents around the body shape, not too much but just enough sharp lines. It looks like a shark to me. Washing it feels reeaallllyyy good...
-HONDA.
CONS:
-PARANOIA... I always have to be in sight of the car everywhere i go. If not i am constantly hitting the lock on the alarm.
-GAS... So far I have estimated about 12-16 mpg (car is not stock) But i must say the smell of burnt gas is phenomenal.
-HOT... I live in Florida with black on black so yeah...
-SELF CONTROL... I must... have self control... and not... hit past 6rpm... ~350whp is scary.
-OIL... Reminder to check yours as well.
That's it! Please feel free to ask questions or give any tips and hints.
The only thing I want to put into it is a Hardtop, Roll cage, and money for those tires once they go -_-
Looking forward to this relationship with my S2000 <3
