Hello...

If anyone thinks the proverbial "barn find" is a legend your only read about in magazines, then read on... It happened to me a few weeks ago.

A friend of mine told me about an S2K stashed away in a barn of sorts. He got my attention, after all I knew what an S2000 was all about (it certainly has F1 DNA!) and while not exactly actively "looking" for one I was not about to pass on a pristine high performance automobile. So the more we talked the more curious I got and eventually I made the decision to purchase this gem. So here is my new toy:





My S2K is a late production 2003 model - with 4,726 miles on the odometer. My S2K still wears its original Bridgestone tyres, still has the "break in" oil in the crankcase. The all-red leather interior smells just like the day it left the factory in Tochigi and the Sebring Silver is stunning. I put it on a lift this past weekend and the underside is just as clean as topside: no evidence of ever being driven in the rain.

I was a little skeptical about the all-red interior. Dang! It is RED!! Even the radio door is red. But... The more I admire it the more I like it. This is what it looks like...





I realize you might think I am pulling your leg on the mileage. "Without pictures, this never happened", right? Well...



I've only had a few times to get her on the road since I got her but so far I am really impressed! This machine is amazing - VTEC is a thing of wonder!! If you like to read more about it: Click HERE first and click HERE next.

Time permitting, this weekend I plan to change oil. Next I plan to drop all the remaining fluids and replace them with new stuff. I am also int he process of deciding what to buy for a new set of tyres. I really don't feel comfortable driving a high-performance automobile on 10 year old rubber. Any suggestions would be welcome - I was thinking about a set of Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1's or BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp2's.

 

wow! looks like you got yourself a near-new '03 right there...
What I think would really make it a "barn find" is if you got it for a really good deal..

 

But of course!

 

That's great!
It's so pristine! keep it that way..

 

Wow! More details....how did that car come to sit, unused, for that long??

Wow! Amazing car. A very good read too, this thing made my day. Congrats on the awesome find!

 

Nice pickup! I found my 2002 this year with 10,500 miles and I thought was lucky. Enjoy your barn find.

 

Nice, wish mine was that clean! If you dont mind me asking, how much did you buy it for?

 

and welcome....
