S2000 CR Club Racer Edition CR stands for "club racer," conjuring up the good old days when guys drove their sports cars to the track, raced them, and then, if the racing gods were smiling, drove them home again

At that time, we got her for about 32k. About 5k less than MSRP

Sure. I have lots of videos of my V1 on Youtube. I expect V2 to be the same just quieter.

Car is looking good. Glad to see your driving season is started. I am looking forward to meeting up sometime hopefully this year.

Thank you, I think its a must have on these cars. Honestly, you could go the plastidip route and not take the emblems off the car. I did that first, before eventually removing and painting.

I wish I was able to buy mine brand new.

For painting emblems without having to remove them take 3x5 cards and slide them underneath the emblem. You might have to use a small strip of masking tape to protect any remaining exposed paint. Then mask off to protect the surrounding painted surface. Use a plastic adhesion promoter and once dry, use a quality enamel paint of your choice. I've never done the CR's emblems, but this method has worked on other cars.

I used Plastidip for mine. It was painless, and it seems to be much more durable than I had initially thought. There isn't a single stone chip or wear mark on the front emblem after about 3,000 miles of use.

Agreed, I would just Plastidip unless you're really inclined to remove and paint. Although my CR sees no inclement weather, I dipped my rear H in that photo above in the fall of 2012 and it's still holding up fine.

I like the stock H on my black CR. The contrast does look great tho on any colored CR.

What are you talking about. This is a great photo. Beautiful ABP. It can pass for a digital picture from Gran Turismo Photo Mode.
