Default Just Bought My First S2K!

Hey guys,

My name is Peter and I work in Mountain View, Ca and live in Santa Cruz. 48 hours ago I purchased an 05 Suzuka Blue S2000 with 30k miles, all stock with the factory lip! I had a 03 v6 Accord full bolt on's before and although it had way more torque, this car is FUN to drive.

Oh, but one thing that REALLY irritated me. Less than 12 hours after I bought the car, some loser came into our parking garage and slashed the soft top with a knife when nothing was visible and they left with nothing!

Thieves ftl!

But still one happy owner!

Damn! That sucks balls! Well if you need a new soft top, look at OEM, Robbins, or EZOn tops. They seem to be the most popular.

Ahh, thanks for reminding me. Robbins, couldn't remember and it was bugging me all day. Yes, it does suck. I was so mad, I bought the car at night, the next morning I was excited to drive it. I did a walk around, sat in the car, and noticed light coming in the tare >=\
