Default Proud new owner of an '04 Rio Pearl Yellow S2K

Hey everyone!! Just thought I'd introduce myself and my new car. I bought it last week on 01/10/07. My previous car was an Acura RSX Type-S and wow was I blown away by the S2K as soon as I sat in it for the first time. The first thing I noticed was how solid and precise the shifter feels simply by moving the shifter from side to side with the car off!! Thats what sold it to me, and then the test drive, lets not even talk about that. However, when I tried to push the car to its limit as I used to do with the type-s, I learned my lesson as a RWD begginner, I spun out!! Nothing serious though. Anyways, hope to learn a lot on the forums as from what I have been able to experience so far, theres a lot of mature and knowledegable people on this board.

Welcome aboard and congrats on the car!!

As FISH said, please be careful learning your car. There is a big difference in front and rear drive cars. Take some time just learning the feel and gradually get more aggressive.

Enjoy your new ride!!
