I've been coming to this site every day for the last several months! Everyone's comments have been so incredibly helpful. I love the S2000 so much and have always been a honda fan. I refuse to buy a front wheel drive car and when I found out the Honda was coming out with a convertible, six speed, rear wheel drive car I knew I had to have one. I'm 26 years old and make a very respectable salary. However, I just didn't think I would be able to be financed for it. I also am making payments on a '99 Toyota Tacoma 4x4. Well, it's official! Today I found out from my dealer that I was approved with no problem and my Silver/Red is waiting for my arrival. I'll be picking her up in Maryland in 11 days. I am so excited, I can't wait! The girlfriend is so happy that I'm spending all of this money on a car but I know you guys support me and understand the excitement behind the awesome machine. Well, can't wait to start coming to some of the meets and events. See ya on the Road!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are driving it back from the east coast, be sure to vary your speed and rpms for the first 600 miles. Don't drive a new car at a constant speed for hours --- not good.

You'll love it!

Congratulations! As you become older and even more successful, you'll find more and more prospective lenders who love you for your creditworthiness and will encourage to borrow more money; be careful, it's easy to fall into their trap.
