Ok, so a guy drove 300 miles and then in the middle of it found out they canceled and then he drove again without calling ahead of time to make sure they wouldn't cancel?

No, they scheduled him again and did the same thing a second time after getting confirm the day before.

[QUOTE=DER MotorSports,May 23 2008, 11:11 AM] Do people not get a thorough prepurchase inspection before buying S2000's?

You seem to have a preconceived notion that the S is a shitty car. I would say it is not the car for you. We don't claim anything as you insist. At the end of the day it's just a pile of steel sitting on rubber.

Actually you may have read into my posts a little too deeply. Many here act as though the S2000 is bulletproof and no inspection is necessary because they never fail. All I was stating was an observance that this is decidedly not the case at least when modified. They are at least as susceptible to failure as any auto and moreover, based on observation, I suspect (don't know) that the average S2000 owner does not maintain with the same diligence as say a 911 owner. Far from me to question Honda build quality as I have always claimed they were amongst the best built in the industry. However, like it or not, there are some S2000 advocates who have become so enamoured with the vehicle, they way overexagerate it's "uniqueness" and "stonelike reliability".
