Default If you're still "thinking" about buying an s2000?

I worked all night but had to visit my folks first before going home. I was feeling tired and headed home to get some sleep. The weather is nice so I put the top down. I also happened to take some winding country roads home. This car will truly get under your skin. The way it handles, the way it sounds, the perfect seats and shifter, the joy of hitting vtec in 4th gear. I get home and feel like a new person. Suddenly the rent is paid, you feel a little thinner, your wife's car doesn't need new tires and the neighbor's dog isn't barking. The s2000 makes one feel like that. Life is good. Get one while you can.

Driving my S is the greatest feeling in the world especially with all the tears sweat time and money invested, as i go through the gears and 4gs come around and it feels like ur body is being forced back into those nice comfy seats when boost starts coming on strong, its the best feeling EVER!

EX.... 4gs


S2K FTMFW!!!!

On the days I take the S to work the drive home is sweeter.
I drive from a warm inland valley over some low mountains to the Pacific Coast coming out in Malibu.
The top down, a cigar if I please, an I-Pod worth of tunes to select from and fellow topdown travelers to wink and nod at.
Yes, life is good

There is truly something special about this car. Driving is no longer transportation...it's an adrenaline rush...it's therapy...it's mind-clearing. Very few people undersand this. I'm in Milwaukee and I get a lot of Harley people who identify with that feeling.

I had about a 9 month gap bewteen my 02 and my new 07. Them were 9 LOOONG months. I love my Ridegline too but it's transportation.

before i got one i was kinda balkin at the high payments and insurance for my age....honestly the thing that did it was knowing that every morning i'm gonna wake up and go out to my car and know that "this is what i'm driving"...and every time i floor it on the highway all my worries seem to fade away...whenever i get pissed i'll go to my favorite back roads and when i'm done it all just seemed to melt away with each curve...
