Default Introduction

Hello, I would like to introduce myself. I just picked up a new S2k. After waiting on a G35 for 3 months, and having a certain Infiniti dealership screw up my order, I decided to say F it! The G is a nice car but I guess I'm too much of a Honda loyalist to leave the family. Past Hondas include 2 Si's, a Civic EX sedan, and a RSX Type S. This is my first RWD car, so I'm pretty stoked. I have had many Honda motorcycles and this car feels just like a car version I think I saw a pack of you guys out in Blue Ridge a few months ago on some sort of group drive. I was on my RC-51 and passed like 10-15 S2k's in a row
I'm in Richardson, btw.

The only negative thing I have about the car is that I'm 6'2", so it is taking some getting used to, but I do fit in the car, it's just a tight fit. That was my draw to the G35, but in the end I just got tired of dealing with the snooty Infiniti dealerships and reading about tranny problems (clutch chatter/shudder), rattles and tire feathering on the G. Everyone of my Hondas have been bulletproof in the reliablity dept.

Just wanted to say hello, and I look forward to meeting up with some of you.

Raise the seat back so it is more vertical - then you can get the seat to slide back further.

Much more comfortable for us bigger folks

I'm 6' 3". Granted I don't have a ton of room in the car, but I've got enough that I can take a road trip whenever I want.

And congrats on the new car!

I'll give that a try. I had thought I had the seat all the way back but perhaps not, I know I have the seat kicked back all the way though I'll try it on my way out of work tonight, thanks for the suggestion.
