If I'm ever in your area, you can take mine for a spin. My family and I are actually looking into moving to Jacksonville in the spring or early summer. I'm pretty close to what your car is also! GPW AP1 (Red interior) with Moddiction knob. I don't have an afermarket intake though.
edit* I have incredible sticky tires though

As someone else noted earlier, you could always use the logic that the car's level of rigidity/crash safety is likely the reason you're still alive. That said, maybe you aren't quite ready for an S2000 but it seems this argument could help convince them to let you get into another one.

sorry to hear/see that... that was a combo i've never seen before.
May I ask why you didn't part it out? Could've ripped out the interior and misc parts, no? Unless the stipulation is that insurance needed it back?

I'm not going to rip you apart, because shit can happen to any of us... regardless of the level of experience.
With that being said, I'm glad you made it out alive, but you just fit in that bracket "18 years old, and inexperienced, type driver." You were driving over your head, and this happened. If you hear the tires screeching, that's a warning sign right there.. pretty much telling u that you better know how to drive, or you hit the ditch.
It's ok, next time be more careful man.

For the more experienced drivers out there, what's the best course of action when the rears go? My instinct is to mash the brakes, but I'm sure that's wrong. Does one just let go of the gas and point the wheel in the opposite direction that the rears are sliding towards?
Please do yourselves a favor and go participate at an autocross or a trackday and learn the limits of your car. The $20 autox or $180 track entry fee is MUCH cheaper than your deductible alone not even including the cost of your insurance rising from incidents like this.
