Default New s2000 owner. The unicorn.

I guys and girls, my 6 year search has finally come to an end. I just purchased my 2006 honda s2000 GPW with factory hard top installed from day one at the dealer. It also has the oem front lip as well. Otherwise stock, the car has the modifry dash bracket, kenwood head unit with modifry dash controls, modifry glove box organizer, and a set of custom floor mats that lay over the oem ones that are in mint condition. The car has 47,000 miles on it and was a 2 owner, now a 3. The car also came with the oem hard top stand, the oem tonneau cover for the soft top, and a third party warranty from a company that covers the power train up to 100k miles. The car is in immaculate condition and since it has a clear bra on the entire front, (minus the lip because it was installed at honda by the 2nd owner). I had to drive from bowling green ky to Washington, D.C. To pick it up. I'm staying at a friends house here in Knoxville, and in the morning, taking it to the dragon. I know someone will harp on me about taking it there being my second day of ownership, but I assure you, I'm not about to let my new investment get away from me, and I have had many years experience in lightweight rear wheel drive cars, so no worries there. I've enjoyed the road trip from dc to Knoxville and I know I'll enjoy the car for years to come. In glad that I can finally say that I've joined the s2000 family, and it feels great. I'll post pics when I get back to bowling green and my computer. Thanks.

I'm very content with the way it is. Current mod list is kenwood head unit with modifry dash control, modifry dash bracket, modifry glove box organizer, ricks clear side markers, and voodoo shift knob. I have all of the oem parts as well. Future mods may include real s2000 cr side markers since the ricks fog up, moddiction knob, oem trunk lip spoiler, k&n fipk, uk exhaust mod, and a good car cover since I sadly have to park it outside. I'll rent a storage unit in the winter to keep it in, and I do have a garage, but it's my roommates house so he uses it. I also may put led lights in the map lights, reverse lights, license plate illumination lights, trunk light, and turn signals. At some point, I'd like to get the oem front lip spoiler repaired and repainted by honda because of a few scuffs on the bottom, then wrap that with 3m clear bra like the rest of the front end of the car. I have no plans to go forced induction or put a stupid fart can exhaust on it or even lower it. It's pretty perfect how it is.
