Default Proud S2k owner since June

Hi all,

Riding my son's Honda Shadow this spring got me hooked on open air driving again, but two wheels are not the best for a DD and I started looking for a soft top.
Seriously looked at the Miata and some older Boxters, but remembered reading about the S2K a few years ago and drove an 2004 at a local dealer. Loved it!
Started looking for a decent specimen (the '04 was a little on the high side price wise) and found a lovely 2002 Sebring/Black.
The S2K is stock and I will likely leave it that way. I think the S2K, specifically the AP1, will be recognized as one of the all time great roadsters. My wife and I are having a gas with it!
It is my DD until I find a beater for the winter. I am currently looking for someone to do the MTF change. I have a local guy who worked miracles on my kid's Corollas over the years. I think I will ask him to take it on.

Nice, welcome. Its a great car and this is a great site, tons of info just there for the finding. You can drive these in the winter, many do. Tires are a must and a hardtop is a bonus.

Thanks,

Just ordered Honda MTF II from the The Hardtop Guy along with a couple Honda oil filters. Want to make sure I am not wondering what fluids/filters were used after the fact.
