Fun car and very cheap so I didn't even need to think much about the purchase. I have a bicycle that cost half as much.

At least in 10 years the car won't be worth as much as a clean one, and you can buy it for a much cheaper price and restore the suspension. Not much can be said for scraping the bottom though.

Problem is the cars are getting cheaper and more affordable so the younger crowd is now able to afford them and do these "cool guy" things. I'm 30 and I guess I'm no young anymore ahh time flys

Please do. Btw, it's funnily enough because I no longer have plans to hard park the s2k, but to track it now.

It fit my simplistic standards of what I want in a car and find the story and goal of it's development to be admirable: to be one with the car. Honestly I view that goal as something spiritual, man and machine in unison.

Well... The way you put makes it seem bad. Actually I've been saving for one... Maybe by the time I'm out highschool lol. I consider myself a responsible driver, and I'd treat that car with utmost respect. That and police around Biscayne are everywhere...

I can see the values of this car going up in the near future though.
