Congratulations Rick! You deserve it! That's going to be one sweet ride, especially with all of your great accessories on it.

finally! congratulations... and dont forget to get your "check-out" list. we have added a couple of items recently, such as find out where reverse is before you drive home; and have the oil level checked at your first fill-up (or sooner)...cant wait to hear your report after you drive it home!

Sweet...thanks Rick. I would hope that my car's already at the shores, and is shipping as well, since it was only a week after yours.

Wanabe,

So there's no misunderstanding, I writing a letter to my dealer with my checklist, adapted, of course, from all the good advice given here, the old H-A.net board, and on the S2Ki board.

I've also asked my dealer if I can be present with a camera to record delivery and prep as it's done. He seems willing to let me do this, so I'll create a little documentary of the delivery and prep of my baby.

Now, if I could only find a way to ride the rails East with her .

I remember it was about a year and a month ago when all of this excitement was happening for the first time. I am feeling the excitement all over again through all of you that are waiting. Good luck to Rick and everyone else going through this. I hope no one has the troubles I, and many others had in the delivery process. (Dealers backing out of contracts, not agreeing on original price, etc.)
Rick,
I think you should document the "assembly" of your car. Before and after pictures of all of your leather and after market goodies. I know I would love to watch your S2000 become unique to your tastes on this message board.
I can't wait!!
Oh, wait a minute, I already have mine.
