Default I miss my S already

Ok, so I got a nail in my sidewall sometime at of after the autocross. Well, I have a tire and wheel warranty, but there is only one problem. Nobody had my tire in stock...no the Honda dealership, not the goodyear or firestone store...not even Discount Tire. I was so disappointed...but thankfully, since I work at a Cadillac/Saab Dealership, they were kind enough to put me into a CTS loaner until my tire came in (which I was told would take two days).
Don't get me wrong...I'm glad to be pimping a cadillac CTS, but it's no S...
I'm ready to get it back, and it's only been a few hours. Driving the CTS feels REALLY different since I'm still basking in the post-autocross glow of the wonders of the S2000.

Oh, and while I'm on the topic...I went by Frank Kent Honda today and test-drove a GORGEOUS Berlina Black AP2...I'm not used to the lower redline, but the additional torque is noticeable.

If I end up getting rid of my S, I know that I'm going to have to get a newer S2K.
now it's got me thinking of selling it so that I can get a newer one.

I know that was a totally pointless rant, but it just goes to show that us S drivers are spoiled with phenomenal handling, great fuel economy, and an all around fun ride. The CTS is too quiet...but at least the girl that I took out for ice cream tonight liked it.

I absolutely love getting back into my S after not driving it for a couple of days. Feels new all over again.
