Default My car got here

The dealer just called and my new blue S2000 just got off the truck. It has 9 miles and will be done with the pdi soon. I'll be driving it soon. Can't wait to see what the blue looks like, and can't wait to see how it drives. It's about a two hour drive up to Cookeville. I am so excited.

CONGRATS! Check, double check, and triple check that the spring spacers have been removed. In fact, ask them for the spring spacers!

Good luck, and many years of happy driving to you

P.S Read the owners manual for location of secret compartment and the rules about breaking your car in properly

Haha, have fun man, it's horror to watch those miles roll by though, or good, since you'll be breaking in the car!

Congrats!!! I just got my Sebring/Red last week and am in love! I hated to get rid of my boxster but this Honda has really eased the pain I think my dealer has a blue coming soon and I can't wait to check it out in person. The color looks very cool in the pics I've seen of it. Good luck sleeping tonight!

Excellent! Glad that you got your car. Now all I have is just a few months before I get mine.

So I picked it up last night. The spring spacers were in a bag in the trunk and they had only rinsed her off with water. No gas in the tank. The folks at Cookeville are the best dealer people I have yet encountered. We were in and out in 15 minutes. The dealer decal is in a bag in the secret compartment. I may stick it on the inside of the trunk, they were so good.
The car is better than I had imagined. Great lights, cool dash, great seats, super brakes and shifter, plus it's quieter than my 93 Mr2 (for sale). I've driven 254 miles and got 26.6 mpg on my first tank. Should be hitting 9k by Sunday.
