Default New owner of red S2000! (updated with pics!)

Hey guys

Just became a new owner of a 2000 S2000 red, with around 74,000 miles on the odometer. Took it to a local honda dealer before the purchase from a local dealer, and had a used car inspection....passed with flying colors!

I love this car! handles great, decent power down low, and love the 6-sp shifter. The S2000 came with an AEM cold air intake.

This is my 4th car so obviously not a daily driver.

my current rides:
- 2008 Honda Civic Si Sedan 4-door. Injen cold air intake, Strup race header, progress lowering springs, OEM body kit. daily driver.

- 2007 Mercedes GL 450 SUV. family hauler. navi, rear-view camera, rear entertaiment system, etc

- 2006 Chevy Corvette. Heated leather seats. Corsa Sport catback
exhaust

- 2000 Honda S2000. Red. AEM cold air intake. Want new 18" rims and body kit soon

(scroll down to my last post for updated pics)
