I'm not trying to get inbetween a possible sale, but why don't you just keep the S2000? It sounds like you still love the car a bunch, and seem like a true convertable driver.

Oh, i do love the car. Its just alot of money sitting around that could possibly become other things like...

120,000 chicken nuggets on tuesday....

My brother has options on a car in the next few weeks so he might take it.
I hope my brother wants it so that she can hang around..

Yes, please keep me posted on the car. The 2001 GPW/red combo with a glass top is probably my all-time favorite color combo.

Was there particular a reason for an '03 engine swap?

Send me a PM if your brother doesn't have any interest in the car.

Well the engine just stopped working...sorta...I had a post about the original engine failure(Do a search..it was a while back) and the dealer ended up warranty-ing it for me.

It was a welcome swap since it seemed that the 03 motors were making a 2-7 more horsepower on average than the 00-01 motors. Whether it was the motor of the ecu i am unsure but the car has both 03 motor and ecu.

i will definetely keep you posted.

How does the acceleration of the NSX compare to that of an M3? I'd assume the M3 would whoop the NSX's ass, no?

I LOVE the NSX.

One of the sexiest (and rarest) cars out there.

The first modern supercar.

The ONLY car tuned by the late, great Senna himself. That alone is worth the price of admission.
