Default New 2008 S2000.

I picked this up today. It is a 2008 and has 7400 miles on it. It is 100% stock and has always been stored in a garage. Anything I should be aware of as far as 2008s (or S2000s in general) go?
Thanks

You might look into retorquing the rear axle nuts. Other than that, you should be good to go. Welcome aboard!

It's great looking car!! Congats!!! It doesn't have a lot of miles on it but as a precaution I would have all fluids changed.

Nice ride.
I also bought a black low-mileage 08, just with red interior, last year.
Mind me asking how much you payed for it?

Make sure that the wear points on the top frame have been burred down so that they don't eventually cut holes in your top. There was a TSB for this. Nothing a dremel can't fix. I also glued some vinyl patches on the inside for double protection. A forum search for "top holes" will yield many results.
