Laird- Have you entered yours in the concourse?

What a silly question!! Absolutely would get another S2000. My son turns 16 this year, so I've already told him to plan on either buying my 4-door Accord or some other car that he can cart his friends around in. Then I can turn the S2000 into my daily driver and do this every day!

I've sold my S2000 and got a CR-V. The dog wouldn't fit in the S2000!

Yes, I would get another S2000. I've always wanted to own a convertible and now that I do, I see that there is nothing else out there right now with the same fun factor at the present cost.

In a minute.

(Well, maybe two minutes, after buying the truck to pull the horse trailer.)

Mine only has 18K in over two years and I certainly am not tired of it yet. But the experience has not been flawless so the next M3 roadster, the coming C6, or something else may be more attractive options for me in the future.. at least right now I am not sure I would buy another.

I was looking for a replacement a few months ago..... looked round and couldn't find anything else that was in the same league as the S2000. So as I stands, yes I woud get another.

However, if they do a nice job taking the roof of the 350Z I would consider that..... and if I got a pay rise, I would be looking seriously at the 911

I honestly don't know. I've had many of the same problems Sondra and cdelena have had. The serial #'s on my car and cdelena's are only a few numbers apart and our cars have acted almost just alike except that my problems seem to have now cleared up.

I do know that there is nothing out there right now that I like nearly as well as the S2000 and I really like the upgrades on the 2002 cars. If I had to buy another car tomorrow I'd get another S2000. In six months who knows? After over 20 years of driving roadsters top down year round without sunscreen it may be time for me to drive a (yuk) hardtop sportscar.
