ITS A HONDA not A Fix or repair daily (FORD) hehehehe just do you routine maintance and you have your car for life

 

If you're like me, and I suspect, most of us, you'll hit the fuel cut off a few times in the lower three gears. Then you'll get used to the engine and how quickly it revs and you won't have a problem with it anymore. The rev limiter is just a safeguard for the engine because it "does" rev so quickly.

I haven't hit mine in a long time now!

[QUOTE=frikjmaser,Nov 7 2005, 02:17 PM]I've got an S2000 right now that I'm thinking about buying and I've been driving it on an extended test drive, and I LOVE the car, but I do have one question.

 

If you search around a bit there's a post with "How many miles are on your S2000"

There's a guy with 120k, another with 140k, and in another post I saw a week or so ago, a guy with 177k. Says it still pulls strong, if that gives you an idea.

I've got 60k on mine and I just got it. Lovin' it.

 

I'm considering trading my '01 for an '05. Any insight you could provide on the changeover would be greatly appreciated. Are you happy w/ the change overall? I love my '01, but after nearly five years wouldn't mind something a little different. I could see both pros and cons to the new one during a couple of test drives.

 

Thats all I needed to convince me, thanks guys! S2KBreaker, the show you're thinking of is Top Gear, and thats the segment that inspired me to think about trading in my camaro for one.

Thats the link to the video on Google video. Thanks again!

 

25000 on my clock and not one issue.

 

dude- your sig is SICK...haha looks like something from the movie "House of Flying Daggers"

 

Whether or not you are safe buying an 02 with 46,000 miles depends completely on how well it has been maintained. Like most Hondas, this car is exceptionally reliable for it's class if cared for. Lifespan is pure guesswork but my gut tells me 150,000 enthusiastic miles is realistic for this car. I will get back to you in 15 years or so and let you know how it worked out. If you buy from the original owner you will be able to tell whether or not the car means something to him or her and get a pretty good idea as to how it was cared for. When I bought mine, swear to GOD, I thought the guy was going to chase me down the driveway as I pulled away, yelling about how he changed his mind. I could see it was killing him to see it drive off and at that point I knew I had what I wanted. Hope you are as lucky, good luck.

 

Had practically the same thing happen to me when I bought the car
