Default New owner here in Tennessee

Hey S2ki, I've been lurking here for a long time and finally got my first S2000 on Friday, a Silverstone MY05. I live in Middle Tennessee and drove down to Peachtree City Georgia with a friend to pick it up. We stopped to get lunch at a Chick Fil-A five minutes after I completed the transaction at the bank. Peachtree City has a lot of golf cart paths around town and families tend to travel in carts for quick errands. I was looking for a place to park with the top down when a family in a golf cart pulled out in front of me. The father and a little blonde girl about five years old were sitting in the rear facing seat. When she saw me, I heard her say to her dad, "That's a cool car!" I've read on the boards here how much kids tend to like the car, so it was nice hearing that after about five minutes of official ownership.

Maybe I should post this in a secret compartment thread, but as we were leaving the bank the seller was watching me put all my stuff (wallet, bill of sale, title) in the various compartments. Thanks to this site, I went right to the secret compartment and used it. After I closed it the seller immediately said, "Now what did you do right there?" I reopened it and his jaw dropped. He said he had never seen it before. He was the original owner of the car! Six years of driving and he had never used the secret compartment.

My son is almost three and he's been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the "Honda Race Car."

very cool. It amazes me to read stories of how long it takes people to realize the car has an extra storage compartment. Looks like the car is going to a great owner. Enjoy and drive safe and keep it for a long time
