I'm 6'2" you douche and I've got a good foot+ of clearance. Before you go throwing the douche tag around perhaps you should take a nice look in the mirror. So a hardtop is going to solve your "height" problems? Yet you throw a mini cooper into the mix? And you're wanting to go from a s2k to a 'tricked out' protege?

As for being tongue-in-cheek, or humorous... "fancy spark plugs" is pretty much a label for I don't know wtf I'm talking about.

How your thought process goes from a M3 -> old nsx -> mini -> protege is beyond me.

Here's my advice; buy a bus pass. There's plenty of headroom and the colors mismatch plenty for your style.

p.s. your "ultimate" sleeper produces as much hp as we do off the lot with like 14x the amount of weight. That's the ultimate sleeper alright... as in, any one of us would make you look like you were taking a nap on the track

If any HT get the black which will go well with the yellow. Any other color will look stupid/dum. Or get a white one and paint it to match. Or get rid of the car and you dont to have any of these problems.

well that's ironic.




no need to get mad. somebody's parents just aren't monitoring their 15 year old's internet sessions.

Sorry man, but you are coming across as a little scattered. I guess a lot of us are having trouble seeing why you'd need advice on which color would look best on your car. You can't seriously think that a mis-matched hardtop is going to look good can you?

And then to top it off, you list a gaggle of cars you'd be willing to sell your S for. Did you test drive the S before you bought it? You shouldve known within a few minutes whether or not the car would be comfortable for you. You're not going to fare much better getting a Mini or a Protege if you're 6'5.

You come across like a dreamy 17 year old. Well, good luck with whatever you decide.
Who's scattered little man?
Obviously it's you!

It's very clear you haven't sat in a Mazda Protege or a
Mini Cooper....there's tons of not only headroom but also legroom!

whiteflash...you're mistaken..I didn't refer to you as a "douche"...
I instead appointed the appropriate label..."dufus"!

And my "ultimate sleeper"...a 2300 lb. 195HP Protege has
the same weight/power ratio as a stock S2000!

Didn't you ever learn anything in school?....dufus!

bottom line..I'd beat you in mine...and I'd beat you in your's!

I'm 6'2 and I can safely say if I was 6'8 I could fit in a s2. Would it be the most comfortable of things? Probably not. Could I fit? Yes. What no one understand is if head clearance is your main concern;

A) Why did you buy the car?
B) How do you think a hardtop will solve this issue

If you love this car that much that clearance is your main concern, perhaps you should invest in some lower rails/seats. You come across as a brain dead 14 year old, that's clearly not our fault. I don't care if you called me a douche or not, I'm calling you one.

If you end up getting any color other than black or yellow, just spray paint it black. It will look better than a mismatched car.
