Does this happen to you guys too?
I just bought a Suzuka blue 05 s2k about a month ago. I love the car to pieces! everything about it is amazing.
However it’s not the car itself that I love, but the community involved with it. I’m in San Diego, and everytime another s2k passes by, we either flash each other or wave. I’ve never really experienced something like that, so seeing all these owners makes me feel more special. I feel like we’re acknowledging each other because these cars are discontinued and we are the last few lol. Whenever you guys are driving around and pass another S, do you ever acknowledge them? Just curious. |
Yep, SF here.
I only wave to people who haven't absolutely ruined their S2000 though. Bone stock, tastefully modded.. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.s2k...6f0508f635.gif Neglected, ruined, trashed, hellaflushshshshdhhshshshshs: https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.s2k...7cdfc34cbb.gif |
I've never seen another S2000 since I bought mine nearly 6 months ago. There's only 4 in the region, which is 5,500 square miles, so the odds aren't fantastic, but yeah I'll no doubt wave slightly too enthusiastically if I ever see another one.

They are very rare here as well. If I see one, there is much waving.
I also drive a Jeep. There's much waving. I also drive a motorcycle. There's much waving. I also drive an Audi A4. It's relaxing. |
It happened to me today and I have to admit it was kind of an emotional moment. I was just driving it back from the dealership where they informed me that I need major work to the clutch and transmission. The work would be so expensive that I'm in the process of deciding whether I can keep the car or not. Just then, someone in an S2000 waves to me and I remember full well why I love the car.
I really wanted to catch up to him and ask him if he knew a good mechanic, but the light took too long. |
You guys should check out your respective regional forums elsewhere on this site if you have not already done so. It is a good way to become more tied in with your local S2000 community and learn more about resources near you that are recommended by others.
Yes to the wave experience here as well. Not quite as common as when riding a motorcycle though. |
Not many S2000's here but the Miata guy's are wave happy, I just ignore them! :drive:
|
there's maybe 3 in my home town owned by people I don't know- I wave at them when I'm in the civic, or the mazda5. They don't wave back :(

I wave. They wave back. :wave:
It's a daily thing here. |
I always see other S when I'm not in the S. I wave, they look at me awkwardly. Fun times
