Hi Everyone,

I pulled the trigger and bought the 02 from Jackie at Coleman Honda today. (Thanks Jackie, BTW I never got my Platinum Plus keychain thing? or points?). BTW I went there for a oil filter and wanted to see the Yellow S in person (I was not really intending to buy a car for another month or so) I guess my family will be calling me Scrooge this Christmas..

I was a little nervous since the car had 500 miles on it, but the deal was really good, I hope the previous driver had some restraint.

I have been riding motorcycles for many years and know tons of awesome roads in MD, VA and WVA I can wait to try them out in the S.. Maybe in the Spring we can get a group ride together.

Cheers,

George

Welcome aboard!

Don't feel bad... my wife and I were looking for an SUV or minivan and then bought our "S"!!!

 

Thanks Jackie,

I have to commend Coleman Honda, A top notch dealership. A good very buying experience. Ok they (the aftermarket girl) tried to sell me Undercoating... HA HA HA .

I was nice to work with a rep who is an S2000 enthusiast and knows the car really well. Most car sales people don't know Sh$t about cars.

I spent all morning prepping and waxing the car, just to get out for a 20 minute drive, then it starts to rain

I ran up and down the few twisties near my house (MacArthur Blvd) to get a good feel for the handling. It's been a while since I have driven a car that offers so much feedback from the tires.

The rear seems to roll a little up the the sidewall when cornering hard than the car takes a set. It feels like I can enter the corners faster than my VFR can... And no tire squealing..

Lovin it

I'm glad you're a happy S2000 owner, George.

 

Congrats George, I'll keep an eye out for you in bethesda.

 

Ok, maybe I have lost it, but what the hell is "noob"???

 

heyyyyy how about hooking up a front lip for a good price
