I just helped a friend go through the purchase of a Spa Yellow S2000.... Wooo-Hooo!(ala Homer) After stepping through the S2000 purchasing to-do list, we went out to eat and later stopped for gas. I swear that under the flourescent lights at the gas pumps, the SPA YELLOW GLOWS

Another stormy night gives birth to a proud Stook owner. He used to be a lurker but now he's official. And yes, he's going to the S2K Days event! Am I a recruiter or what? I swear I didn't tell him he had to bring his own Stook to participate.

Lips,

He already has plans for this weekend but I'll be pushing all future events pretty hard.

Hi guys, this is Kibro. The new Yellow S2K in town I used to have a Type R but was stolen not too long ago. I helped found the TexasTypeR Circle that has members from Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and Houston. I look forward to meeting everyone in this family of S2K. I'm glad to be in here.

The funniest thing happened last night. Joe picked me up from work in his Red S2K. What better way to pick up a brand new S2K than getting a ride to the dealership on an S2K? Can't get anything better than that!!!! Thanks Joe!

On our way to the dealership, Joe was "eager" to show me how the S2K accellerate, decellerate and handle, take note, that is in the same order. He showed me how fast it went from 40mph to 95mph and down to 64mph... heheheh, and it went from 95mph to 64mph preeetty fast... about the same time as you can shout "COP!!!". hehhehe. Handling was crisp and showed me just that. Making a banking turn at 50~55mph. Awesome!!! Thanks Joe for the demo/test drive and being my official S2000online spoke person. He made sure that I get everything that I should and more! Right Joe?

I picked up my Stook (at MSRP) last night at David McDavid. So far, that has been the most hassle free car purchase that I ever had, I was in and out in less than an hour. Oh, did I mention they also have a slew of hot Houston Mega babes there. You have got to check them out.

That's about it from me for now.

Until the next time.

I too have a spa yellow S2K and it glows with pure evil. I was conversing with a auto painter and he stated that the pearl and the metallic in the paint will give it that effect. But the downside is the higher visibility with law enforcement. When is somebody going to invent a cloaking device.
