New S2000 Owner saying Hello!
#11
It's funny that you say that. I used to avoid convertibles when I was younger. I just didn't like something about them and I couldn't put my finger on it. I have wanted an S2000 since 2001 and finally got one this year since my situation is right (single, money situation and extra cars). I didn't initially think I would like driving a convertible because I hate wind noise, but the way this car just connects you to the road it feels like a whole different experience. That's exactly what I was looking for, something totally different than the other vehicles I drive. I very rarely have the top up on the S2000 unless it is blazing hot or I will be on the highway for more than 25 miles.

Yours has a nice story behind it with your dad as the previous owner. That would mean a lot to me. You know the whole history of the car and there is something to be said for that. There aren't many S2000's in my neck of the woods and all of my family members who have seen mine can't believe it is a 2001. Aside from the fact that it is super clean, the look of these cars is pretty timeless. I have had mine for only 6 weeks now but you know it is a special car when you make up a reason to drive 8 miles to a store to get something that you could easily pick up down the street. It took me a bit to get used to driving a 4 cylinder car given my history of V8 and turbocharged V6 powerplants. My big thing now is variety and it is fun to be able to experience different characteristics on any given day. I know I will always have a minimum of three cars and my insurance agent will always be smiling.
