Default Monthly Spending on S2000

Just curious to hear what you guys are spending on the S2000, monthly average, not including payments and insurance. Just things like gas, cleaning equipment, mods, etc.

I'm afraid to add it up, for fear of a myocardial infarction

You're not helping me I'm trying to get rough estimates of cost, for when I do get this car next summer.

I asked the same thing a while back. I think I got a few serious answers, but not many. You might try searching for that thread.

Thoe99,

$550/mo car payment (72 mo lien @ 5.9% from AHFC)
$85/mo comprehensive insurance (Allstate)
$50-100/mo fuel (depends on the weather!)
$25/mo oil/maintenance/car washes
$50-way too much/mo for mods and stuff that I can't pass up
---
~$750/mo all taken together if I'm good

I imagine your cost for insurance could be much higher or lower than mind, depending on age/record.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
