have i been done?
Have you had a look under some carpets for dodgy repairs?
I don't know a lot about the topic, but did a lot of looking under any carpet I could find when looking for mine.
Also just got underneath the thing to see if there was anything obvious.
How does it sound and feel anyway?

Actually Ian the JDM ones are much shorter.
Kevin if you're happy with the car I wouldn't worry too much.
I would however call the dealer and ask for a refund on the supposed warranty - mention the small claims court to him, its easy to make a claim up to

feels great ( i know what a tight handling car feels like....having owned a rigid westy for 6 years..)
makes a fantastic noise...
the back and the front still appear to be attached to each other, and i have given it some stick...
i do love it!
i will get some pics...although it is a bit buggered where i have bashed the door into my missus saab 93 convertible on the door edge...
well, dealers are dealers, actually, i would love to own this car until i die or they bring out delorians with retrofit mr. fusion drives a la back to the future.
i cant see me selling it.
so do i own the only dark green S2000 in the whole world???
i like it...everyone else seems to have a silver one.

i didnt take the carpets up but i did feel to check if there was any damp, i checked the underside of the car, the sills, exhaust, waterheader for bubbles (head problems), oilleaks, (none to be found) fluid leaks (none), hood (immaculate), no rust anywhere, wheel bearing s ok, tyres good, all the toys worked, couldnt fault it..... it went like s**t off a shovel and handled great. the engine sounded smooth, the exhaust was great (gives a weird noise on decceleration, but i found that with the other one i test drove, like a harmonic...is that unusual?)

whats a JDM? (japanese dedicated..manufatured..err, something?)
why are they shorter?
is that good or bad??

not sure why they are shorter must be related to stature of the population...

JDM = more power albeit marginally - due to higher compression and 100 ron jungle juice petrol. Is this good ? yes along as you stick to super unleaded and dont plan to go forced induction with mental amouts of boost
weird noise on decceleration is the clutch buzz issue - @ about 3.5k rpm ? nothing to worry about!
well, i am a short arse myself so a shorter car is better for me!
yeah, it does love the super unleaded.
that noise must be the clutch buzz then, same revs.
do people really supercharge these?? are you mental?
how much does it cost....? what bhp do you get?
oh yeah, one other thing, and strike me down if you hate these, but does anybody have a...gasp...removable luggage rack for an s2000 or are they a heinous crime
thanks for yuor continuing advice
