Default New AP2 GPW owner

I've finally got a car after my last car(00 Civic Type R) got stolen in March 08.

Here's a pic of my used Honda S2000 2006

she only has 9,320 miles on her, never seen rain and always garaged + covered.


I plan on keeping her stock for awhile. =)
Sneek peek

They are S2000 spec.

Spoon sw388 s2k spec
Front 5x114.3 16x7 +35 (clears spoon calipers)
rear 5x114.3 16x8 +45


tire spec
radial n3000 nexen

Bought these back in October before I got my S. Took me two years to find them.
And I paid 1400$ + a 300$ speeding ticket and 1 gay ass mo' F#$!@ point on my record for it.




Anyone know how much it will cost to add these wheels to my insurance? Just give me an estimate. I wont find out til Tues 12/22. Thanks for all comments.

Sad story...

Owned my car for no more than 5 mins!! went to pump gas a Shell gas station and some idiot young driver just got his permit backed up into my car while i was pumping gas... a 92 Toyota Camry.

Young driver: (get out of the car) Oh im sorry I didnt mean to hit your BMW.

Me: (I just wanna ****ing kill this guy) WTF! You had no reason to back up.

(took all his info)

Young driver: Why do you have blue tape all over our front bumper.

Me: Im delivering this car back to OC its a four hour drive back and i dont want any rock chips.

Young driver: You wanna get high?

Me: (FACEPALM)

true story I didnt even have insurance and it was a crazy 4+ hour drive back cuz of traffic. When i got home i took off the painters tape and there was no damage.

According to Honda "This vehicle is equipped with a front bumper of a type that has been tested at an impact speed of 5 miles per hour, and a rear bumper of a type that has been tested at an impact of 5 miles per hour, resulting in no damage to the vehicle's body and safety systems and minimal damage to the bumper and attachment hardware. "Minimal damage to the bumper" means minor cosmetic damage that can be repaired with the use of common repair materials and without replacing any parts. The stronger the bumper, the less likely the vehicle will require repair after a low-speed collision. The vehicle exceeds the current federal bumper standard of 2.5 miles per hour."

I was lucky to have that painters tape on. So no scratch and no damage.

Welcome, nice car, very clean

Let me get this straight, a complete stranger hits your car, and the third sentence out of his mouth was 'do you want to get high'. That is just weird.
