Default First spirited drive --------

I have had my S2000 for 4 weeks, and today I went out for the sole purpose of having fun and pushing the car . All I can say is this car far surpasses what I thought was possible from such a well priced car. The agility, braking, steering, engine harmonics, etc.... were perfect. I have driven ( owned some ) unbelievable cars and this will hang in there with all of them :

1972 Mercedes 280 SL
1976 Porsche 911 Targa
1982 Porsche 924 S Turbo
1999 Porsche Boxster
1986 Alfa Romeo Spider
1976 BMW 2002
1995 BMW M3
1981 Ferrari 308 GTB

We are fortunate to own such a great car. If, and I really underline if the S2000 is dropped in the future I will buy a last year model and try to keep it in a time capsule.

nice list of cars there...for once i don't feel the need to say "drive safely" as you seem to have much experience with RWD vehicles

Owning the S2000 is one thing - you gain some appreciation for what it can do based on the limits you personally take it to......then you meet up with a few others for an aggressive run and learn that there are other ends of the car you didn't know about - this is when the S addiction starts.....

Now you're craving another run, another aggressive drive......you'll find a few roads on your own, and then attend a meet like the Dragon and it will be a new rush all over again

......add some track time to it, and you'll be attending S rehab.....or buying a NSX




Just be careful of the modding addiction - it can be worse
