Still driving a S2000 in stock form?
Fairly straightforward question: are there any owners left that are still driving a S2000 that's in the stock configuration? (Aside from wear items like tires and batteries or other consumables.) At times I find it easy to forget that these cars have been around for quite a while now. Plenty of people have swapped parts from other year models or have upgraded various components such as suspension and the like or changed the ECU tuning. But it doesn't seem like there are many left still driving these cars around in stock form at this point in time. Therefore my curiosity.

My 2006' is bone stock. Loving it as is.
Did the valve adjustment and spark plug replacement today. No issues. Other than the amount of time I spent photographic the beautiful engine with the valve cover off.
From what I can see, as a percentage, more S2000s in my area are stock than those in California (possibly other warmer climates). Many of them, here, are garaged all winter as well.

Mine is "essentially" stock and probably considered stock relative to some heavy modders in here lol.
MY03 with CR springs/dampers/antiroll bars/steering rack stiffeners, Rick's x-brace (saved the oilpan more than once), ACT Prolite flywheel, Bridgestone Potenza S007A tires on stock wheels, European rear foglight.

I have two ap1 s2ks. Both are completely stock except for small "cosmetic" things like floor mats, shift knobs, stereo head units, and the like. I have no plans to do any modifications. No intakes, no exhausts, etc. I'm even running 16" wheels, (ap1 oem on my 03 and BBS JDM on my 02. My guess is that the vast majority of s2ks on the road now are nearly 100% stock. I think that here on s2ki there is probably a much higher rate of modification then there is in the general ownership community. I suspect we get a bit of a distorted view here.
