introduction and appreciation
I've been coming to these boards since 2005 and I even made a few posts in the time between then and now, but it's been so long I don't recall the original handle. I never did an introduction then but now at this later time thought I should at least say hello, and give a much deserved thanks to all the members of this board. I've borrowed many ideas from S2ki over the years, saving me a lot of heartache, time, and money. That said I hope I can at least offer something in return to the community I've gained so much from, though it may only be thanks and gratitude.
Coincidentally, today is my 2003 Suzuka Blue S2000's 10th birthday, born 3-24-03 in Tochigi Japan. Even now, after more than 105,000 miles and 7.5 years together I still remember the day (August 13th, 2005) my father drove me the 9 hours to Westerville, Ohio to pick her up while I sat in silence in his car with a 103.5 degree fever like a zombie. I knew how special this car was because the moment Norm handed me the keys, I had a miraculous recovery. Suddenly, the 9 hour drive back home wasn't long enough. No trip is still ever long enough after all these years.
My fiancé doesn't understand why I have no desire to get a new car even though we've been together only a few weeks longer than I've owned the S2000. She jokes around that when I finally die as an old man I'm going to be buried in my Honda. I think that might be true, but when the time comes I don't think my S2000 will be ready to give up the ghost quite yet.
Right off the dealer lot.
