Congratulations man, beautiful car. San Francisco here too and if you are as mechanically savvy as you are, then I'll have much to learn from you!




Looking forward to your progress man with the car.

P.S. S2000 was my childhood dream car too

Goddamnit....I don't know why but Spa yellow is my second favorite color for an s2000.....The more and more I see one I'd just love to get my hands on an 02-03 Ap1 in Spa yellow to leave mostly stock and just go to track days with....A set of the black "H" badges and the black CR "S2000" side badges would accentuate it so well....nice set of gloss black wheels too....Getting jelly of people with Spa cars now....I'm gonna need to have 2 s2ks in my fleet in the near future I'm thinking. A nice one for seasonal weekend driving / pleasure cruising and another one for an all out track thrasher....

Congratulations man, she's pretty.

Sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders and I admire your appreciation for the value of money at a young age. Hard work accomplishes a lot in life.
Good luck.

Thanks man, I honestly didn't think I would ever own a yellow car but if I had to, it would definitely be an s2k. Yellow fits these cars so perfectly and after I got over the idea "yellow car" I feel in love with it. Yeah it's a cop magnet, but only because it looks so damn good.

Over time I've actually started to dislike black wheels because it doesn't allow you really see the design of the wheel. But after looking up pictures you are right, yellow and black does look damn good. Black accents really make the yellow pop, I really want those black and chrome honda badges, they looks SOOO good on any color s2000. But I guess honda doesn't make them anymore so I gotta wait and i'm sure spend a premium online somewhere.

Does anyone know how I can pm Billman for his TCT? Whenever I try to access his public profile it says I do not have permission.

Since you're a new member I think you need to wait a week for PM ability. I think he can still PM you though.
