After I took a trip to hawaii in 2006, my mind was cleared. I searched like hell for a good used s2k, then I drove one. The dealer let me and my fiance take the car as long as we wanted. I drove the car home 2 hours later. I didn't even like the color. It's almost like I fused with the car at first seat, and letting go would have torn out a piece of me. LoL. It was that dramatic.

Because it sadly is the last sports car Honda has.

RIP Prelude
RIP Integra
RIP NSX

Honda is not the company it used to be.

Ya it's in 4th stage, the reason he stopped to throw up was because they raced each other so much he got sick from going through the twisties too many times. He didn't beat takumi clearly takumi out lasted him.

My reasons were many and specific. I had a bunch of criteria when looking for my next car, and the S was the only one that filled them all perfectly...

1) 2000cc or less (tax reasons)
2) 150hp per ton or more
3) 4wd or Rwd
4) Supremely reliable
5) Sharp handling
6) Low depreciation
7) Less than 20k euros for a 2002 or newer
8) Sharp looks
9) Mustn't be common or chavish (S2ks are very rare here in Greece)

Combine all that with the bonuses...

1) Babe magnet looks
2) 9krpm redline
3) 240hp without FI
4) Dual personality, drives easily when you want it to, goes like a bullet when you want it to.
5) Practical for a sports car
6) Convertible (a must for Greece).

Was a no-brainer for me.
