Have you ever purchased something of great value/cost, and then after getting it home or using it for a few days you begin to have serious doubts about the wisdom of the purchase? It either was not a practical purchase or it was way beyond your financial means and you felt totally stupid and/or depressed afterwards.

Do any of you feel that way after having your S2K for awhile? After 9 months of ownership I don

Remorse? I'm insanely happy this car is as inexpensive as it is right now. I don't need the bells and whistles of the more luxurious roadsters. This car is all balls. And any possible feeling of regret is wiped out the second you leave someone in the dust or someone's mouth drops from it's looks.

One Year and 3 mos later, I still LOVE my S2K!!! it is the best purchase I've ever made from a pure emotion stand point. While getting my house was cool and practical, my S2000 makes me happy just looking at it in the garage, and ecstatic when I drive it. Nope, no buyer's remorse on this car, or any of mine yet...

No remorse at all, besides...I can still get a new M3 and have the best of both worlds(for my budget).

Best car decision I ever made. I absolutely love it.

Every day I get in that car and just grin.

I had a MG Midget when I was 20, an RX-7 when I was 30 and an S2000 when I turned 45....

No remorse at all about the s2000. My only regret is that I didn't buy a winter beater before the stock market dropped.

I had a Datsun 2000 when I was 20, an NSX when I was 30 and now an S2000 at 44...

I've had it less than a month but I doubt I'll have any regrets. Gotta love the price!

Hey exNSX, How about those old Datsun Roadsters. I had 5 different ones but in the day. My 68' SRL-311 was by far my favorite. The Stook is my Datsun Roadster for 2001!!
