Default Finally situated with my S2000!!

Well, it has been an aggrevating week!! Last Saturday I bought a 2000 S2000 in Silverstone. Well when I test drove it, it pulled extremely to the right, and neede some other work done to it, so I thought to myself maybe it needs a simple alignment. So the dealership that I got it from agreed to get it all done. So just about a whole week goes by, and finally on Friday I go to the dealer to get it, and he tells me he's got some bad news. He told me that the alignment didn't help, and that the shop where he took it thinks that the car had been involved in an accident!! I was pissed!! It needed a new control arm, and knuckles, and had some frame damage! Yes I did look at the carfax and it was clean, anyway, The nice guy that he was, he let me out of the deal, gave me my downpayment back and gave me my trade in back With this, I gathered my thoughts and decided that I really want to own an S2000. I drove to Charlotte, NC and pulled into the Honda dealership and looked at a 2001 silverstone w/black interior, 24,000 miles on the odometer. Got a good deal on it and bought it!! The car is in mint condition, not even a scratch on it, clean history, the whole nine yards. I love the car and wouldn't want to drive anything else! Mann what a crazy week, I'm gonna kick back and enjoy my car now! Thanks for listening to my story, thought you would get a kick out of it.


Thanks,
Greg

You'll never grow tired of the looking at the car as you're walking away after you park or catching other people's reactions as they see you at a stop light. Occasionally, you'll get a thumbsup from a 8 year old prospective automotive enthusiast that is just in pure awe. Even more rewarding is the wink from a female/male (whatever suits you) observer.

Congratulations!

Richard

Thank you! I love the car and look forward to the future of ownership. I'm sure I will be asking you guys/girls many questions.

Wow, props to that first guy for taking care of you like that.

The world needs more honest people like that.

Glad you're happy with your car!
