Default Hello, just how many...

of you guys are there. I just got back to St. Louis, Missouri in the USA from London and was wondering how many s2k owners there are. The whole week I was there, I saw just one, a red one, and it was on my way to London from Gatwick airport. I saw plenty of Boxters, Z3's, M3's, and even one Z8. I'm starting to see more in St. Louis, but still not as many as Boxters and Z3's. I had a great time though. Saw several shows and many of the sites. The weather there was a little rainy but it beats summer in St. Louis. I got home and was greeted with 95 degrees and 95% humidity. Well you have a neat town and I enjoyed myself very much.

Pleased you enjoyed the UK! What do you mean the weather was a little rainy? It was the hottest heat wave we've had since 1976!

S2K's are officially imported at about 700 cars per year. There's probably a few more that come in through Europe, probably pushing it close to 1000 per year.

It really depends where you live as to how many S2K you'd see. I live just north of London at there's 3 S2K park in my train station! (2 silver + 1 red).

I've never seen one at my parents who live in the North of the country (Durham), although there is one list member from just north of them (Hi Paul).

Hi Andy, glad you enjoyed your track-day!

Official UK Honda sourced cars were meant to be 500 in the first year, but they (Honda UK) made a big song and dance that they got 900 in the first full year (Sept99 to Sept00), suppose the same for this year so that would be close to 1800 to date, I would guess 500 in the two years from the continent, and only a handful from Japan, so roughly 2500 in the UK, probably more than all S2000's in France, Germany,Belgium and the rest of the continent put together!!
