Wow, Rick, you finally got it!! Don't forget the bumper plugs after you remove the front plate. They did give you the plugs, didn't they?

Finally S2000 of your own....
It is bit late but I give big congratulation to you.
I also had my first drive at rainy day, but the following day was sunny for my first top-down drive.
I can almost see how you are itching to get into your S2000 again and again for a drive.


I think there is a possibility of having final and a big DC,MD, VA meet, and head out to Skyline for some awesome driving before weather gets snowy.
And we should organize S2000 club in this region so we can also have our own track day at Summit Point Raceway.

Congratulations Rick!
Did you try the Weathershield cover yet? I haven't because my S2K has just displaced the Prelude from my garage and lived under the Honda cover.

Tell me how well your tonneau cover goes on. Mine is a real pain in the behind to put on. That's probably because the weather is so cold that the cover's leather stays very stiff. I've got 160 miles on the S2K so far, mostly over snowy roads in below freezing weather, and ALL with the top down!

GREAT NEWS.

Greg is dead wrong about the color though. Don't let it worry you. It doesn't really matter since he's completely right about the girl (Sondra).

Remember, Friday is casual day, or as we say, "Screw work, I'm gonna take a little trip down the coast day!"

Already have Muz's, which was perfect timing. It arrived the night before the car.

Congrats again Senor Hesel! I'd like to see that silver leather, too. Sounds cool.

Another thumbs-down about the car: lookit all that bad carpet in there, jeez, wouldn't a leather console cover be a nice solution...
