Default MRS. S2K

Parked next to you at the Bellevue Galleria today and it basically has decided which car I'm going to buy this weekend.

My girlfriend and I have been looking at both the S2K and STI both in rare colors "Suzuka Blue" and "Crystal Grey" (on the STI).


We made a deal that if we saw either one of these rare colors on the street today we'd end up buying the car we saw.

Just as I thought the game was useless I pulled into the bellevue galleria parking lot and the one open spot that was available was next to MRS. S2K's 04-05? Suzuka Blue S2K.

Must of been a sign from God or Divine intervention


How many of you seattle people daily drive these cars, I'm scared to drive it in the rain

Mine's a daily driver until I can find something else that I want to drive. I hate to put miles on it but I can't stop driving it...

it's a car

It's only a car.

it's one helluva car.

drive it.

enjoy it.

it's summer,

it's a convertable,

it's a 2.2 liter bundle of whoa!

driving in the rain is a POC, just be smart about driving... that's all.

regret is much more expensive if you never try...

congrats and enjoy!

I noticed that too with Firefox.

No worries, but I wouldn't make the assumption that track events are always harder on the car.

My s2k is a daily driver and it's definitely a lot more practical than you'd think.

1) Gas mileage is great if you don't go into vtec. Sure you can blow through a tank if you want to, but you can also get about 24-25 mpg if you drive under vtec.

2) seats are firm yet comfortable. Drove from here to San Francisco and back during an extended weekend. My back didn't hurt once.

3) the suspension makes the ride firm but the cabin ride isn't as jarring as some other sports cars i've been in.

the only negative aspect of the car is trunk space but oh well, i don't play golf

add on that it's a convertible, fun to drive, vtec is like an adrenaline shot.... and you'll soon never want to drive another car again

Enjoy!
