Default How do you cruise?

It's as simple as that. This question is very open-ended, of course. (When? Where?)

I have had my S for just under a month so I am still wanting to drive it constantly. It is also my daily driver but I get up to no more than 60 for no more than a couple minutes. Usually I'm going 20-40, in town. But when I cruise I get on the Beltway and just put it in 6th and go. Tonight I was thinking about it. While I was driving up the beltway the traffic was very, very light, the v1 was on, and I just enjoyed being able to get up to 90, not like that's my max speed(it's a comfortable, fast), and just be driving so smoothly. Without a care in the world. I just cannot get enough of my S.

Unless I'm the only one who has a ball driving my S2000, let's see some stories!!!

YES! Im always watching the weather channel for top down driving days, we have been on 3 road trips around N. ca, and up to wa. last summer. this car is the most fun. I took her up to the rev limiter in 5th gear, and it was so awsome. like on summer nights, with a full moon out. a long stretch of road...enjoy

im 11 months into ownership of my S2000 and i still drive it constantly. im not kidding, in the 11 months ive owned the car ive put 16k miles on it, and its mostly just pleasure driving. just this week and last ive started putting the top down occasionally when the weather permits and its restored my love for the car. now to get the winter tires off, and get new SO-2s and start my favorite time to cruise is late at night, around midnight. around 70-75 degrees on a summer night, alone on the highway. or you could call a couple friends, i have about 4 friends i can call to cruise w/nice cars; its fun in packs. a little doesnt hurt either...oh wait, did i say that?

I have had my car for 6 months or so, and I still go out just to drive. Destinationless is great.
I'll hop on the highway and just cruise at the speedlimit. Driving around aimlessly is just so damn fun in this car. Everytime I get into it I say "I'm so lucky...".
Top down on a warm, clear night with the music (despite the shitty system, especially on the highway) is just bliss!

Monday - Thursday I drive with the top up. However, come Friday I go top down. I guess it's like I have something to look forward to come Friday. As you can see, I don't really live an exciting life.
