Forced induction for your S2k would have been fun; however, a nice watch is cool too... Pics?

Most people who care about fashion (and not cars), would not know the S is a $34k car; mine has been called everything from a porsche to a corvette over my many years of ownership. Besides, frankl, who cares? If he likes his watch, stop harrasing him.
My point isn't that he should sell his "S". My point is that he posted in car forum his choice of a ultra pricey (nice, but pricey) watch over his car. He is telling everyone he has status.

My point is that if he is that insecure, he will never be happy with the status displayed by owning an "S". And you do know that if you park a Ferrari, Porsche or even and NSX next to a Honda, the Honda will look like a Casio next to Cartier. That's my point!

By the way, has anyone noticed that the predominant number of those that would choose the watch over the mod of the car are "guests". Car enthusiasts indeed!

I'm outta here!

I believe that you would have gotten more enjoyment out of the SC, plain and simple.

Puff Daddy said it best when he said, "To ya'll it's a Bentley, to me, a Blue car."

It's just a watch, nothing more, nothing less.

Which Cartier watch? Roadmaster? I still don't understand why your wife would be mad if you spent the money on the car as opposed to the watch?

Well, you can get some 5:6 gears for your Cartier.

They run about $1,200 installed but the action will be smoother and it will cut about .002ms off the 24 hour run.

If you are gonna do it, take the plunge man.
