As some of you may or may not know, my car is already down and out of commission. I believe that I spun a bearing in the motor this past Wednesday. BTW...thanks Dave for coming and helping!!!! After it happened I started planning a rebuild and building it for 450+ whp. However, after giving it a lot of thought, I believe that I might get rid of the S2000. I see it pointless for me to fix it with OEM parts as it might happen again and I know that I eventually will want to build the motor. If I build the motor, I am worried that other things will break (axles, diff, etc.). I just see this as a never ending money pit and although I love the S, I think that I need to get out while I still can. I am looking into what kind of car I would buy if I do sell the S.

you could always get rid of it and start over. maybe get a red S. I was thinking of getting a red ap2 if my car was totalled. The car is fun stock IMHO. we should both get vato vans and roll chollo to the meets. I almost got a van yesterday. for reals though. you should get a '00 civic coup and turn it into a F&F rice rocket. that would be titeyo. i wouldn't mind having a finely tuned 12sec civic with a tite body kit. i can hear the turbo screaming halleluja rite now.

 

No new S if I get rid of it. I will just end up modding it and wanting to go faster. I am considering getting a 2002+ M3 if I sell.

That's unfortunate your car's down.

Long ago, I came to the realization that an enthusiast will make any car a money pit.

 

Well whatever car I get, it wont be completely stock. I want to buy a car that I can just drop it on rims and call it a day. BTW...no, i did not get in an accident.

dude this is almost the exact same situation that i am in. ill be switching platforms too. i feel your pain trust me. i love the S2K also but its gotta go.- dave

 

Very sad day for me! I wanted to keep it forever, but it just isnt going to work for me. What are you planning as your next car?

lol, if you think an S2000 can be a money pit... Just wait untill you have to change the brakes on that M3....$$$$$ and thats just standard mantinance.
