Default Owner's recommendations requested.

Hi everyone,

I'm seriously considering buying an S2000, but there are a couple of questions for you lucky owners.
1. Would you buy one if this was your only vehicle. I live in Virginia (DC area) so winters are not too bad (at least not lately).
2. Would you buy one if you did not have a garage to put it in.

I know these are kind of strange or silly questions but I'm just wondering how many of you out there use it as the only car and have no garage. Also, where are you located.

Thanks a bunch for helping me decide.

Echo that for me.

However, I know of plenty of people with would answer yes to both. If it's something you really want, I say do it.

Yes/Yes

Warning: You lose the ability to take anything anywhere (except maybe a co-pilot) but it doesn't matter because YOU get there in style.

1) Yes

I recommend you find a self-serve garage that are safe and you can trust after you got the car.
