The LA-to-SF slog is the longest I've gone in a single day/leg in the S2000. I didn't want to get out when I got there. Also countless 3-hour hops to the Sierras.

I definitely don't recommend long hours with the sun beating down on you. But long hours at night with the top down is an amazingly meditative experience.

I've done 16 hours straight in the Accord with my wife (Seattle to SF on I-90 and US-97 in the snow).

 

I drove my car from Seattle to Chicago when I purchased it (just over 2,000 miles) one suggestion I can say is to always make sure you are monitoring your fuel gauge. I came close at one point in Montana, not realizing how spread out the exits were.

 

^haha, this "make sure you are monitoring your fuel gauge"! To add to this, not sure about the other years, but the fuel guage on the AP2V2 is very inconsistent. The last few bars drop soooo fast!

 

Just got back from my longest trip ever in my S2000 (or any car for that matter). From Vancouver BC Canada to Key West Florida USA, and back. The main reason for the trip was to attend S2KDays in Cumberland Falls Kentucky, and then to cross off Key West from my bucket list. My route covered 15,766 kms (9,853 miles) over 28 days, through 17 States. That was a lot of fun, and a great experience. Every minute in the S brought a smile to my face.
The ONLY thing I would have done differently: I would have bought a pair of lambskin driving gloves. Fingers on leather steering wheel are slippery, which means you have to grip all the time, which leads to fatigue in the fingers, palms, wrists and shoulders; leather on leather doesn't require any gripping. I picked up a pair of driving gloves today, and what a difference!

 

^Wow! Sounds like you had an awesome time Mo!

 

Yes, it was a fantastic experience. I'll admit to being scared severak times driving through tropical thunderstorms, when I had to just park it 'cause I couldn't see a thing, with thunder and lightning around me, and even small-hail!! But 10 mins later, I was back in sunshine as if nothing had happened! I don't think we realize how good we have it here with respect to weather!

 

I took my BB CR from North Texas to Los Angeles with my dog on my fiancé's lap the whole time...and then back.

 

This spring I did a 600 miler to Road Atlanta form Northern Virginia. The trip was not bad. Seat comfort was fine. The cars range was just right for fuel stop stretches and lunch. As you all know this car will run at 75-80mph all day long with no drama.

What I did use for the first time was Dubs. These are noise filtering ear plugs. They filter out most of the wind noise, but you can still hear what is going on around you. This made top down motoring MUCH more enjoyable.

 

I see it as the roads you are on and how you get into the rhythm of the drive.
Drove top down Bellingham WA to San Diego always on the coast as far west as possible and top down the whole way, 5 days including buying and installing a HT.

The run from north LA to San Diego was the most tiring, as it was blazing mid day and on the freeway at 25-35 MPH, and wiped me out way more than 17 hrs on HWY 1.
Bought a OEM hardtop, and was able to blast up I5 back to Seattle in 2 days in up to 105 heat with AC on, as it was so much quieter, but not as fun.
This I5 trip would have been terrible top up or down, s200 is not a good interstate only car.

 

I've driven the 400 miles or so between Phoenix and Los Angeles a few times in the S. This past fall, a group drive in AZ was close to 800 miles. We stop about every 2 hours or so for stretch, nature and fuel-up breaks. I have a sound system that will play loud enough to hear at highway speeds with the top down. I do not play it for that long or stream across the desert in the daytime with the top down too often. 80mph or so on an Interstate (straight) is not my vision of fun.
