Hey everyone! My name is Jamie (21 yo female) and I am from Lakeland, FL but the military has me stationed in Shreveport, LA. I currently own a 99 Civic but have been looking around for a new car. I have really grown an interest in the S2K and want to learn all I can about them before I commit to one. So, I'm here to learn!

 

welcome. buy one, u won't regret it. seriously.

 

Go for a test drive to get first hand experience

 

I am praobably going to go up to the dealership tomorrow and look at the car. I don't think I can afford a new one though. The Honda site says the start out at like 30k. What yr would be the best to go with for a used one? I am think I am going to have to see if I can find one out of Dallas since Shreveport never has any good user cars usually.

 

02+, 04+ have revised suspension, bigger motor, etc.

whats ur budget look like?

 

Jamie,

Welcome to the site. Read the FAQ thread at the top of the introductions page, and start poking around. I'm sure you'll find lots of good info.

Best wishes on your search!

 

Since I still owe some on my car, I am lokking for something under 20. I found a Suzuka Blue one online for 17 but I'm not sure if I like the interior and how it's blue too. I'll have to check the car out in person.

 

^ You should. I love the blue, and I was worried that the interior was going to get "old" on my. But, honestly, after 4 years I still like it!

 

The best S to get is any. Each range of years has it's qualities:
00-01- the original raw beast, most affordable
02-03 - still raw but with several nice improvments, but you will pay for it
04-05 - more refined, great deal since they have just taken the biggest hit on depreciation

Bottom line is you really can't go wrong and just get one ASAP. The S makes all other cars seem terribly dull, even the ones that are faster/more powerful. Now that I have mine I see why there are so many on here that have owned more than one. It's that kind of car.

 

Thanks for the imput guys! I am def going to go test drive one ASAP!
