FWD? better do your homework first. unless you're talking about the 318, or lower models...
Even the 318 is rear wheel drive.

"Decided to keep my MY 2000 and just get the service bulletins for clutch & tranny, new rear window and the top latches. "

What service bulletins are there? I just had mine in the shop for it making a lot of noise and vibrations when accelerating and decelerating.

Forgive me, I am new to the S2000....

Also, what is the proper hood closing technique?

From the FAQ "General Maintenance", "Taking Delivery":

"Drop the hood from chest level. Don't push it closed. It will dent."

I still don't like doing it, but I guess since it's all aluminum and the way it fits this is the way it is done.

Chest height is a bit extreme. 14-18" seems to be high enough.

That drop is not enough for some owners.

Oh yea! The car was designed by the japanese for the japanese. Chest height would then be about right.
