Default my new red S2000

I just got my new red S2000 and what a car!!!! I had traded my yellow 2002 S2000 for a MiniCooperS. What a huge mistake. The best part of the whole thing is realizing what a solid perfect sports car the S2000 is- it is made for driving and made perfectly. I am so happy to be back in the fold.

Did you take a big hit on depreciation? Inquiring minds want to know.

I understand! You just wanted the best color for the S2000. I can't believe what some people go through just to get a red one.

I like the Mini and wish I could take on two car payments and use the Mini as my daily driver.

The S is a great daily driver, I actually cry when I can't drive ours everyday.

However, I don't know why you bought Red, everyone knows Spa is the fastest color. Joe!

My mini was a Cooper S with everything and since there is a waiting list I did very well. I drove my new red S2000 today and you can never truly appreciate the beauty of a Japanese designed tranny until you have been without.

What didn't you like about the Mini? Most people are crazy about them? Just curious, I'm really happy with my S2K but I did consider a Mini S when I was looking, but I never got to drive one.
