Off-topic Talk Where overpaid, underworked S2000 owners waste the worst part of their days before the drive home. This forum is for general chit chat and discussions not covered by the other off-topic forums.

What do your buddies drive? And what do they think about the stook?

All of my friends, thats ALL, and my wife drive SUVs. They all love my stook. I have so many good friends. When I went on vacation, several of them volunteered to babysit my stook.

My girlfriend has a Honda Accord, others with SUV's, Honda's, BMW's and Mercedes. I'm the only one with the drop-top roadster and funny how old high school friends that I haven't heard from in YEARS have recently called to ask how I was doing. LOL Go figure...

One of my buddies has a 3000 GT and a Honda 929 bike (sweeeeet). I used smack him and his GT around all the time, but not anymore. Today he bought a 99 Viper RT/10 Get to drive it tomorrow. I think I'm in trouble.

One of my FP (family practice) friends has a BMW 325 and a vintage Alfa convertible. He leased a new red S2000 about 3 weeks ago. Honda World in Santa Fe Springs, CA, only had a "grey" (as my friend puts it) at the lot. He wanted to lease a red one ("just like my friend's," he said) and got them to transfer a red one from Ontario, CA, that very day. Needless to say, he is a happy camper. He also was quite impressed with my S2K and calls it "wicked", after I gave him a ride in my modified Stook.

He won't be able to make the 8/18 meet, but perhaps the next!

My friends are all mixed. It depends on their family situation. They all were laughing and said that it was my "mid life crisis car." At least until I took them for ride.

Those who drove cars of simular class had a lot of respect for the S2000. They knew that Honda would not produce a car in this class that would not demand respect. One of the few that I allowed to drive my Stook (he drives a Boxster) enjoyed it. Infact he said if he had not already have his Boxster he would probably bought a Stook. He could not believe the amount of car you get for your money.

My step dad drives VERY nice cars (Lambo D 6.0 included). In the past when I visit my folks in Reno NV we swap because he loves the "Little Roadster". And he hammers it hard! Recently though he picked up a Miata Special Edition. I'm just hoping when I visit next Thanksgiving I'm not relegated to the Miata "for comparative purposes". I guess even if I am I can still take my '74 Pantera (which is in storage there) for a spin. He says the S2K is one of the finest engineered cars ever created.........and trust me he knows.

Friend: "Sweet, Sweet car ..."
Strangers: "God, you must get a ton of chicks ..."

I rest my case.
