i have also heard about this, but the good thing is that for the 02+ models honda improved the tranny/drivetrain.

I'm interested in buying one, BUT one quick question... I'm about 6'4, and I'm wondering if there is enough legroom, etc. or could it possibly pose a problem?

I WANT THIS CAR ALREADY.. 1 more month till my current lease is up and i will get this car finally..Waited all my life for this car.. watching all my buddies get cool cars while i watching from the sidelines.. Worked since i was 12 years old in hopes of one day getting the car i want....I've considered other cars.. the Z , wrx, S4.. but ultimately my heart has always been for this car.... I WANT MY CAR... IT HURTS.. i want the pain to go stop..

Cameron,

I think I've heard people say that S2000 mods are more expensive than on many other types of cars. My car, Neb, is bone stock, but I thought I'd throw that out there... For folks considering heavy mods, that's an important consideration.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, though!!
