... when your car has been supercharged, wrecked, painted a different color, and received new wheels and the downstairs drywall has not been finished during those 7 months.


... when you've autocrossed the car, tracked the car, dragged the car, jumped the car, shown the car, bumped in the car(top up) , fallen asleep under the car, had your children detailing the undercarriage of the car to name a few.


... when you wreck your car and your S2000 community takes up a collection to put towards its repairs even though insurance helped out! That one still blows us away. For all the idiots that troll the board, there are hundreds more that I would like to call friends.

When you stand out in the cold rain just to talk to other S2K owners
When you think a S500 is a Honda and not a Mercedes
When you want a single exhaust even though owners of other cars want a dual exhaust.
good ones

...when you create from scratch a local S2000 Club to gather all the S2K's owners and see the 70th member join the club!

... when you blew your engine and faith keeps you for not selling the S until the moment you hold the steer and stick in your hands!

When after 4 years of owning, you still gets frozen of pleasure when watching another one in the road, revealing again that it is the most beautiful car around.

When under your post per day avg it still says enthusiast...

actually when a 13yr PCA member sells 2 Porsche 911's to buy an 06 S2000 like this.

When you take your Civic to the dealer for work, wander around the lot, see an S2K for the first time ever, take a test drive, and they very nearly sell it to you before your Civic is done!

The night after that day, you wake up at 0300 because you're so excited you're going to have a cool car.

When for the first time in your life you buy a car duster, California Jelly Blade, small squeegee, name-brand glass cleaner, and microfiber towels, and carry them all around in your trunk no matter how small the trunk is.

When you also buy a car interior duster and keep it behind the passenger seat.

When you don't realize your friends are watching you when you dust your interior in the parking lot, and they remember how your Civic's interior always looked like a dumpster, and they laugh their collective ass off and start laying bets as to how long this phase is going to last.

When YOU laugh YOUR ass off when you see a girl who wouldn't give you the time of day last week literally caressing the soft top.

When you suddenly start watching a lot of Speed TV for the first time since getting satellite.

When you learn heel-toe downshifting.

When you start looking up racing schools online to see which ones have the race cars that are closest to the S2K.

When your whole day is ruined by the slowpoke in front of you who takes the interstate on-ramp 30mph speed limit seriously. (I'm up to 60 now)

When you look and look for other S2Ks on the road, think you see one coming, and get disgusted because it's the twentieth Miata, 350Z, Eclipse, Vette, RX-8, Z-4 etc. you've seen that day.

When your friends finish lunch a little early so they can go outside and drool on your car.

When you look for where all the other cool cars are parked in the lot, and you park near them because they understand about door dings.

When a friend is showing off his new motorcycle and you pull up with the top down and say "yahhh ... nice bike [vroom, vroom] see ya [screeeeech]"

When everybody asks you "how do you like your car" and you say "it's more fun than I ever could have imagined!"
