Ah yes, I am also a Pegger and I am hunkered down in front of the computer staying warm today. MAN it's cold!

Two more members to add to your list

I drive a MY02 Suzuka Blue, purchased in Sept 03. There is another Suzuka Blue S2000 in the city that I know of. A young fellow from Winnipeg Honda brought one across the line last year. Haven't met him yet but put a S2K greeting card on his windshield.

You were looking for someone to detail you S2K? nish sent me details on a guy in Transcona who does good work. Sorry but I can't find the information. Maybe PM nish yourself. He is a good guy, drives a Spa Yellow. He and devious1 (Rob) are both active in the Autox scene here.

Years ago I did a search on the board and found over 30 Winnipegers registered with S2KI. You wouldn't know it by the cars on the street. I don't think the new board software supports this search feature any more.

It would be really great to have a meet, even an ice cream drive here. Perhaps we could do a weekend around an autocross meet. Unfortunately there are few good scenic drives to entice people to come from a distance.


We have been to a meet in Regina where we met Hondagal and Koala among other fine members and drove the scenic QuAppelle Valley. We also went to Seattle last summer to the Pacific Northwest meet. Boy that was worth the drive with 26 other S2000's on the freeway!


As you can see, I love to drive this car and can't wait to get her back on the road.

See you in the better weather.
Bobby

I'm looking forward to a couple of meets in the summer. I remember parking next to a suzuka blue once in the summer in front of Joeys at Polo Park. Maybe that was your car?

Have never seen a Berlina hard top in Winnipeg. I frequent Fort Gary for the most part. I will keep an eye out.

We have been to Joey's twice last summer, the Suzuka Blue is pretty rare here. Last time there was an NSX parked in the lot as well. Sweet!

This winter I saw a white NSX parked long term (dusty) in the Trizec underground parking lot. Too bad it was an automatic though. Such a waste!

There are lots of nice cars lurking around, if only they would all come out at once. . .

Hey, as S2kbobby stated, I'm from winnipeg as well. I don't currently have an S2k, but I've had an 01 and 02 Berlina. I used to be the one with the Berlina Hardtop, but sold it to b16civic. I have an 04 Alpine white M3 (only one in MB) until this saturday when it leaves for its new owner in Edmonton . Sold the Ridgeline too and picked up a 03 A4 V6 6 spd last saturday. I'd definitely be up for meeting some other S2k owners in the city as I intend on bringing up another S2k late this spring from the US.

Yep! I can't wait to get her out of storage and back on the road. I promised she would never see salt, but she will come out of storage in early April and on the road as soon as possible after that.


Took her out during a may snow fall for pictures and nearly didn't get back into the garage. Not a winter car on S02's.

Got to take advantage of every good day with this brief summer we have.

We would definately attend any S2K meet and I would be up for helping out.

I'm on my 5th winter with it and there are no signs of rust whatsoever. Drive it and enjoy it.
