Kicked out of ClubRoadster
LOL just kidding! Long time lurker here...finally made the upgraded jump!
Came from a long line of cars lol but as for roadsters...4(3 running) Miatas. 2 NBs and 2NAs.
My NB1 was fun but it was lacking the power, suspension upgrades, and whatnot. Ultimately I wanted either a FD or AP2. But in the back of my mind, I wanted to upgrade to a NB2 or NC2. I did find a Mazdaspeed Miata that I wanted to buy but after weeks of thinking and planning...I just couldn't spend over 10k for a Miata(even if it was an MSM). And the NC2 slipped my mind after going back with my 2 intended targets. At the end I chose the AP2 for what I do with my driving life, I travel all around cali a lot, want good power, solid chassis, and top down. In my eyes I would be beating the FD with all the driving and commute, I do love driving an FD! Weeks of searching I finally found the one!
My old NB1 - OEM hardtop, Tein Basics coilovers, Torsen, etc. My plan was to get a supercharger and stiffer suspension. But I loved the Tein for daily.
2004 Honda S2000 - OEM Hardtop, clean paint, came with some Drag wheels(CR Kai replicas I believe). Femaled owned.
Plans so far - All fluid change, Better tires!(Continentals are on it and I don't like them lol), real CR Kais, exhaust, K&N FIPK, OEM front Lip, exhaust, bucket seat.
History - I made a pact with a couple of my buddies back in 2008-09(When I drove my DC5 and S14) that we'll all get S2000s after test driving one of our friends car, and then later on I got side tracked again when I test drove my friends NB2 and ever since it's been Miatas loll
Just stopping by to say HELLO!!! And would be great to meet other S2000 owners!!

Thanks!!!
I like it a lot! Feels kinda like my NB upgraded on steroids! The S fits me like a glove and I thought the miata did but now the miata feels like I'm wearing mits? haha
I do feel it is totally a different class than the miata. Everything about the S is so solid!! I love the power, and weight gain is noticeable. I miss the door locks(open and close for both locks), the middle window switches, and some more I'm forgetting.
I am very happy with my purchase, best decision yet!
Get a NB...and track that car! I had 2 NAs and the car does not feel at the same to me like the NB. NB is a better platform, NA bigger, cheaper, easy to find mods.
