Picked up my car on a wednesday evening (AP1 Silverstone) but could not drive with the top down (too cold).

2 days later (the S is not a DD) i picked up my buddy and we took a drive on PCH (California) and other spots for a couple of hours. Soon we had to stop for gas coz I was driving pretty spiritedly....

Stopped for gas and spent around 15 minutes trying to figure out how to open the gas tank....

That was classic...

I love it! That's great. It certainly isn't anywhere I would have expected it to be.

Best moments:

1) my first S2000 test drive. It was a 2001 Spa with single exhaust and once in VTEC, I understood part of the appeal. I gave up my dream of owning a C5 'vette right then and there.

2) Driving with my favorite and only +1 (aka wife) to the Dragon this year for Wake the Dragon. The last 50 miles were top-down on a nice, warm day. Ahhhhhhh.....perfection.

3) Learning how to handle this car on the Dragon. It makes me want to autocross, though my schedule this year didn't allow me time to actually participate. Next year, though...

4) Every sunny morning, when I have to make a decision what to drive. S or V? Decisions, decisions.....

Exclamation

I have two - Taking her up to 145 racing an audi s4 and going through the twisties with a Porsche GTIII Turbo on my butt. Got a thumbs up from him after we hit the straight away and he took off.
