Default S2000 Missing

Hi all,

Just to let you all know that my silver beast was stolen just the other night. I live in Sydney and I would of thought thevies don't steal cars like my little beast. But I guess i was wrong.

Anyway keep an eye on your cars never know.

Sorry to hear Elaug. Hopefully everything works out with insurance.

So do you plan on getting another s2k?

No good at all - hopefully the insurance will replace it for you. I would have thought apart from flatbedding the Stook would be pretty much unstealable. Looks like we all need to be a little more careful.

Thanks for all your support guys, my S2000 was in my drive way of my house, I normally garage the car, but my brother has a 67 Convertible Mustang GTA which has priority, as you can probably understand. The S2000 did not have an alarm as I thought that it had nothing of value in it to be worth stealing, but I guess I was wrong.
I am planing on getting another one, once my insurance comes through. My friends tell me maybe to buy a Audi TT, but I prefer S2000 as I had a run with one just the other day before it got stolen. I had no problem taking him with ease. He had a boosted up turbo, and blow off valve, etc.

I had raced my S2000 at the track and ran a 14.2 @ 97miles and did a 13.8 @ 103miles on my Gtech.

I was planing on supercharging or turbocharging it at the end of the year. And to maybe get a set of wheels.

But now I have to wait for a new one, and my only problem to decided if I go for the black or silver, and both with red interior.

Anyway thanks for your support

Sorry to hear that your S2K got stolen. Your brother should be very thankful to you, since his car probably wou;dve been stolen if it wasn't in the garage. Good luck on getting the new one. I heard that the dealers down there don't gouge you on the prices, so that's good.
