Default Ok, bored of not having an s2k

This whole "not having an s2k" thing is not very much fun. I have test driven everything under the sky and nothing was as much fun as my s2k's. I am ready to get s2000 number 3. I think I am going to go back to the AP1 and I am looking for a nice, clean one. I would prefer GPW again, but I am interested in pretty much anything but Suzuka (I spent 70,000 miles with my suzuka- that was enough for me). Does anyone know of any nice, low mileage s2k's for sale in the area? I am willing to drive to find the right one. I am not completely set on an AP1, so if any of you are thinking about selling your AP2, let me know.

Hurry up- FWD is killing me!

Oh, and I'm not a big fan of DBW, so I think I will stay away from a new one.

Just wondering, how was the SLK amg compared to the S, I know it was faster, but was it fun to drive?

Brian,

S2KBDUB is selling his. It is one of the cleanest S2000 I've ever seen.

No, it was pretty boring. It got lots of stares and it sounded great, but there is no available manual transmission, stability and traction control are undefeatable, and the controls felt numb. It was not a precision instrument like the s2000, and therefore much less fun for someone like me. However, it was fast, good-looking, sounded great, and got great gas mileage (4mpg less than the E320 Cdi diesel I traded in for it, on the exact same 1000 mile road trip).


Verdict: 3 pedals is greater than 2
