Congrats, I made the same move 3 months ago. Never looked back.

Smoovep - we all have a sense of humor; you're just not funny.

BTW, I'd never trade my S for any car in the world. I'm not a fanboi or anything of that nature, but it's my first official car and I plan on keeping it forever.
me not

For who ever thought I was a troll here's the S2000, my 02 Vette, O5 Vette and 08 Vette.
I have most of my vehicles to simply have. To me they are works of art.

thanks for the proof, but I still don't understand how you can own the car for 3 years and drive it over four thousand miles and never have taken it above 6k.

pardon the poor analogy, its like building a pool and never going for a swim.

senor flogo. Your analogy is not poor it is just wrong. It is like buying a piece of art and looking at it. I am a collector. I have 52 bicycles, 4 motorcycles, and five vehicles. I change that collection over periodically. Before the S2000 trade on the 05 Vette, I traded a Mazda MX-5 on a new 08 Vette.

My 08 Hylander Limited is for driving. It has 24,000 miles on it. The other's get from 1 to 3K per year. That's at least another 10 to 12 K per year. I am in or one a ride every day.

However, being 68 and a retired Police Chief, I do not speed.

As I said, I took the S2000 over 6K rpm in a lower gear when I was taking it to the dealer to trade. It was a noticeable little extra punch. But you should feel the punch of the 6.2 liter 436 hp makes. There is no comparison.
