Default Looking to buy an S2000

First of all, my name is Jeff and I live in southern California. I currently own a 2003 Mustang GT with 440hp 498tq, on nitrous. It is a fun car but it was never made to take corners and while drag racing is fun all the tracks are getting shut down. More and more I am seeing auto-x events popping up along with speed ventures and things of that nature. After riding in my buddy's 02 S2000 I though it was a really fun car, and after driving it I decided that I would like to own one. So as of now I am looking to buy a S2000, just waiting for the right deal to come along. BTW this forum is very well put together and moderated.

If you are looking into road course events you are eyeballing the right car. Welcome and snap some pics and post them if you pick one up!

I will do that, One of my buddies has one and I now have a whole new respect for the S2000, Its quick and feels like Im driving a go-cart at K1 Speed, compared to the handeling of my Mustang

I agree.....the S is a much better handling car than most of the detroit stuff...even better than my 02Z.Good luck with your search!

Congrats on your new found love for a great car and a great community.

I did the same thing and actually found the S2000 i drive today on this forum. Definitely check out the Cars for Sale section of the forums. Bigger S2000 collection then youll find anywhere else! Then make sure you become a member to support this excellent site.

Best of luck and good hunting!
