Like what, a clean 2002 Silverstone AP1 with 50,000kms will run you around 34,000 AUD. You do the maths

AP2s with about 20,000kms run above 42,000$

You guys have it so much better in terms of pricing, oem and non-oem part availability, market size etc. Although, one plus is that it is a lot more unique here.

Also, not all cars in the AUSDM are required to have headlight sprays? Why does the S2000.

You're not allowed the S15 or R34?

I find that hard to believe

True facts...

1) The head light sprays do not come painted on MY99-03.
2) The head light sprays come painted only on MY04-09.
3) In Europe, there are many owners who don't like them and they remove them.
4) In US and Canada, there are many owners who like them and they put them on.

So... go figure now.

Isn't Monte Carlo Blue available in Aus? Hell, I'd put four liscence plates on my car if that car were available for purchase in the US. I die a little bit on the inside knowing it's not here.

I think this idea is cool but not on an S2000, it ruins the look and it is completely unnecessary.

I've never seen any, although I'm still quite new to this whole affair. Does removing them leave marks?

Human nature, always wanting what we can't have. I'd kill for a Moonrock!
