First I have to say thank you to hpark, jimcarson, and karwath for their advice (in my thread from yesterday).
I had a deal on the table for $500 over invoice, and with their advice, I went back and hammered out a better deal.
After going back and forth, and at one point leaving to go back home. They finally agreed to the deal I wanted.I was able to get invoice on the car, and $400 off of the hard top (which I have to wait for it to come in). The most difficult part of the deal was getting what I wanted for my trade in (they were offering $1,000 less than what I wanted). But after missing most of the Superbowl, they finally gave in.. which more than made up for missing most of the game
So I am now the proud new owner of an 05 Silverstone Red/Black S2000
Now the hard part will be keeping her below 4K RPM's during the break in period.
Thanks again everyone!!!

good deal man! i got mine anout 3 weeks ago.. i LOVE the car!!! comgratz on the great deal and have fun breaking it in! cruising time.

 

go for a ride to vegas and back... viola! car broken in

 

That would work but you really don't want to do the break-in period just cruising down the road. You need to mix up speeds and rpm's.

Congrats, Gretzky, on the new purchase and what sounds like a really good deal!

Enjoy and Drive Safe,
Steve R.

 

5500 rpm. Much easier.

 

I was told 4K, but I like your number better
So which should I go with?

 

Anywhere under 6k you should be fine. Congrats on your new car!!!!!

 

Congrats!! I just got my used s2k a few weeks ago too. Been cruising with top down lately and the car turns alot of heads and is a major chick magnet!! Enjoy your new car!!

 

Congrats and welcome to the club.....Sign up for the HQ meet....
