New Member - New (to me) S2k
Greetings all,
I made a deal to purchase a low mile (32k) S2000 in Suzuka Blue. Looking forward to flying out to pick it up and drive it back home this Friday...I've been around these things for years, I'm an autocrosser who's been into mostly Miatas and special edition Focuses (3 SVT Focuses, a '14 ST and now my '17 RS) as my "race cars" and have always enjoyed watching what these things can do out there.
Ironically, I doubt I'll ever autocross it. lol....I am buying this mostly on a whim, but just to get back into a fun weekend-type car that I can enjoy in better weather. It'll sit all winter of course, and most of the spring, meaning the miles on this car will always stay low, but the car will be driven, and driven with intent!
I'm not looking to modify it beyond some very minor asthetics (clear side markers for example, are already on order), and some preservation items such as XPEL and probably some seat covers (as long as I keep that blue! lol).
I know this is a Honda, and that means it'll probably run forever, but when it comes to PM, what should I look for, what would it need, etc? I may be interested in some very minor mods, like intake/exhaust, but that would likely be it....
Looking forward to learning more about this car! Pics soon!

Looks great, congrats!
A front lip will cover most of the scratches on the lower part of the bumper cover and adds a different level of sexy to the front of the car. Oooops, another mod but at least it will look OEM.

I have bought a total of 3 BaysonR front lips for the S2000's I have owned(1 AP1 and 2 AP2) and have no complaints. They do require a little fitting but overall they are pretty good. Either way, get the OEM weatherstrip to compliment the lip and it will look great.
