New owner from Indiana
After seven years being a forum member / lurker, I can finally introduce myself as an owner of an S2000.
The real name is Rex. I live 50 miles east of Indianapolis, and last week I made the long trek to north of Pittsburgh to pick up my new (to me) 2006 Suzuka / Nurburgring Blue S2K. Car has 75,500 on the odometer, but she has obviously been very well cared for by the two owners before me.
Flew from Indy to Detroit, Detroit to Pittsburgh, and met my salesman from Baierl Acura at the airport. He shuttled me to the dealership and by 2 p.m. I was on the road for my (mostly uneventful) 5.5 hour drive back to Indiana. Apparently I chose the only decent weather day last week as snow fell on both ends of the trip the very next day. It has been cold and mostly snowy ever since. I did manage to get her out a bit in the cold sun on Sunday and took a short drive. Also took some photos I hope to post soon.
In addition to the great customer service from the dealer, and salesman Ryan Casselberry, I have to give a big thinks to this forum in general for all the encouragement, advice and information over the years and recent months. This is especially true of the Allegheny Region forum. Members there took time to visit the dealer to inspect the car, take photos, and give feedback. It made a first time long-distance purchase much easier.
Again, thank you all for the information and help. I look forward to being an active member now.

@Ohnothimagen do you still own your s2000? I just did the opposite of you, flew Pittsburgh -> Detroit -> Indianapolis to buy a Suzuka Blue and drove home. Love it already, just wish it was Spring!
