this is the goal for me. not the car, since the car i chose for this purpose is the S2000. i love his passion and garage. def motivates me to keep on going with my project.

A garage like that is my ultimate goal but just a tad bigger. I will have more toys lol. That car is amazing. I have always loved 911s but after owning an S and of course not being rich, I think I would now rather own 2 or 3 S2000s than one 911. I dream of the day I can pull out of my garage and take a nice supercharged s2000 to the track.

Really inspirational! California coast + Porsche... this guy is living the dream.

Edit: I think he is a member on s2ki (or was it Nasioc? ).

Just watched it 3x in a row. lol

im gonna do the same thing with the with my S. its the one car i want to be good with and i think its a very rewarding car. dont get me wrong i still would love an NSX, but the S2 is so capable. its hard to justify even leaving it. its super easy to work on, parts are good and plentiful. plus its not too expensive. im gonna grow old with the S.
i may not have been the first owner but i will be the last.

Great video, thanks for the post.
