congrats man. make sure you follow break in procedures like not going into vtec until after 600 miles...and take it easy on the clutch and brakes.

good luck

Oh my...congrats! Its been nine months with my "s" I love her.
I still stare at her after parking her ..The best and most fun car to drive....I just love long highway on ramps where i can get her up close to 100 mph for the merge.....what a rush. Gets better everyday. Bravo to honda for such an awesome affordable true sports car.

Congratulations, I've had my baby a little over a year and enjoy every minute behind the wheel. As stated above follow the proper break-in process, and after that let it rip!

thanks for the welcome!

I used to have a TT 225QC and had to sell due to being laid off etc. So its been a while deciding what to get (another TT, 350Z S2K etc.) and I just decided that I wanted a car I didnt HAVE to mod to have a blast with. This is really the only car around 30K that is a "real" sportscar right out of the box...

Now as long as it doesnt snow this week - I should be able to get it home and into the garage...

I lurked for almost 2 1/2 years. I got mine on July 1st. Some days I still can't believe I have a car that is this much fun. No regrets at all. If only the snow was not piled up so high....
