Howdy boys and girls. I don't currently own an S2000, in fact I've never even driven one. I have always liked the way they look and it being RWD makes it probably the only Honda I would own, save for the NSX. I currently drive a healthily modded 95 Eclipse GSX but I think I'm getting a little older and it's time for me to move up to something newer and with a little more class to it. A used S2K fits right around my price range and I may be shopping soon. I suppose I'll include a few pics of my current ride since I mentioned it.

Nice! You plan on selling it? or making it your daily driver? S2000 has the sport & classy looks, in my opinion. It's a great car.

Ha!! Making it the daily, you must be a comedian. While the car currently serves as my daily transportation it has it's quirks. It's just on the verge of being an all out race car. The car is a blast to drive but any way you look at it it's 12 years old and just an Eclipse. No matter that it's the top of the line model and makes over 400whp when people see it they just say "my sister had one of those in high school". Now I don't want anyone thinking I'm some shallow, materialistic asshole. I am tired of working on cars. I've owned this one for almost 4 years now and while it's been fun, I no longer look forward to dropping money on new parts and installing them or fixing things when they break which seems to happen more than it should. I want a car that looks good, is semi-quick, and with a little pizzazz to it. I think the S2K covers those bases which is why I'm here. I've been doing a little research and it looks like I want an 02-03 MY since it has the options I want and fits my price range. Buying this car will depend on my selling my current car but I have a feeling after next week's tuning session, the dyno sheet and timeslip will aid that task.
