Does the S2000 change the way you drive?

The S has changed the way I drive because it's faster than my previous and lease cars. but during warmup's and city drive's I'm more calm in the S, just taking it easy because there is always confidence you can catch up when you start using some vtech.

It's something I noticed earlier, the slower the car I drive the harder I drive it.

I'm driving more aggressive, but then the car allows me to. I like being able to get in and out of traffic at my pace and brake quickly when I need to. Of course I'm dealing with traffic in Southern California which is just wacky to begin with. The S2000 really suits my attitude to driving which is "I know I can drive, I don't know about you!".

It did for me, as I have never had a rear wheel car that WILL spin out on you if you don't watch it. But you get used to it.

Once a BMW owner who reviewed his car wrote:

"Everybody asks why BMW owners drive like jerks. Because we can."

I think it makes sense. If everyone carried a gun, I think deaths would increase.

It is my first RWD car so it's different from a FWD. There are big blind spots which makes you look twice when changing lanes. I love to drive it fast but i think it's made me more careful as a driver.
