My brother had mine today, whilst I worked from home got his rear tyres replaced.

Comes home, shows me a pic of mine on his iphone and goes, man, still a hot looking ride...

I couldn't agree more. The simple pleasures, eyeing off my car whilst having a coffee.

On my third, and it will be a keeper...just can't part with it (though i have considered it)

you know it's funny...

When my gf and I (of 7 years...I know I know, I'm working on a ring lol) drive together, we always end up arguing over directions or her lack of navigational skills. lol. But in the S...we have both noticed that a wrong turn here or there just means we get to spend longer in the car we both love and those fights are almost non existent.

I can honestly say that driving top down on a beautiful day by the harbour front with my girl is one of my most favourite things to do. It's so relaxing and peaceful, and just a pleasure to be there driving with someone so special. The S truly does bring out life's small little pleasures.

Don't worry guys, I fixed that for you. Because if you're serious, then a few years ago you were probably saying the same thing about a '95 civic hatch that you'd take any day over a l, p,or f car.

It helps that the OP's wife is as much of a fan of driving fast as the OP is.

Top down drive to a restaurant an hour away with my wife to meet up with other S2000 owners yesterday. Took back roads home, enjoying the stars. Stopped for ice cream 1/2 way home. Nice!

We are planning a two week road trip with the car for our 20th anniversary next month.

Driving this car around on a mild summer's day is just pure bliss. Being able to park it and leave it for a while with the top down makes it even better.
