Hello all,
Thanks to a careless Prius driver, I had to leave the Miata world. I loved my Mazda, a 2001 NB. I was planning on moving up to a Miataspeed Miata with the settlement money. Craigslist kept tossing many choices in my price range at me Porsche and BMW didn't seem realistic on my budget. Toyota MR2, too hard to find an unmolested and low mileage example. Also, I'm tired of relying on Uber. Now I'm ready for an S2000. I will probably lurk more than write on this forum. I've been taking in this forum these last few days. Thank you. Anyway Happy Thanksgiving and I'll be in touch!

Greeeeting... I just picked up a low mileage 2006 Suzuka Blue. It has to make its trip from WI to TX before I have my hands on it. Hopefully it will be here mid December. Can't wait to drive it though.

I come from the VW/Audi/Porsche scene but my first car in high school was a Honda CRX.

I'll be posting updates on IG NEXAP2

Default New S2k



Just purchased a “new to me” 2001 new formula red with about 105k miles. It was owned by an older gentleman and parked (sadly) out in his yard. I’ve been fixing it up for a couple weeks and am pretty happy with the results so far. Had a bad idle problem with misfires so I pulled the throttle body and IACV and they were full of carbon buildup, etc. runs likes too now and I love the car!

Hi everyone!
I found this board some days ago when I was looking for parts and track/motorsport info about the S2000. I'm a rally driver from Germany and active in motorsport for over 16 years. I was rallying with a BMW 318is E30 and a Renault Clio 3 RS.


Clio 3 RS Rally


I am planning to go for a rally-S2000. There is only one other rally-S2000 in Germany right now. A friend of mine is racing one at autocross events with big success.
As soon as I start with the build there will be a project thread

Hey everyone,
Thought I'd introduce myself, just joined the club with a Silverstone 2005 Black interior, 115k miles, but completely stock. First car in my name, but I've been daily driving a CJ7 1985 (On the more impractical side, I know,) but it's been a passion project that my family has completely restored. I'm an 18 year old, but I've had my eyes set on the S2K as early back as since I was 12. I really want to become involved in any scene or clubs in the north GA area. Nice to meet you guys.
-Alec

Default New to forums

Hi all - I'm new to these forums and am a proud new owner of a Silver 2004 with just under 50K miles here in Southern California. First thing I need is new tires, but figure since I want to get slightly bigger wheels and tires, I might as well do that now. I'm looking forward to all of the expertise available here and hope some day I can contribute and give back to all here as well. Thank to everyone.

Default Hello


Hello everyone, ​​​​​​​just got my first s2k a couple weeks ago it's a 2000 gpw with black/red interior. I've been lurking here for a few years and even been to a few Bay area meets with friends. I live in Hayward CA and I also have a prelude bb6 that I swapped with a h23a.
