Default Hi guys!

Hi guys!
Just wanted to introduce myself as I'm in the market for an S2000 and will definitely have some questions once I've found myself an nice AP2.

I used to be a honda nut, had two Mk2 CRX's and a JDM Integra Type R.
I've accidentally become a BMW enthusiast as I've currently got an E30 (2.8 M52) track car and an E39 530i (manual) daily.

The truth is I love all cars and just enjoy anything that gives a good driving experience.

My girlfriend is gonna use my 5 series and I'm wanting to get an S2000 for the day to day.

Cheers,

Rob

Beware of the AP2 police! In the UK we have only the AP1 (unless an import). What you refer to is the facelift AP1. There's plenty of info on here and good luck with your search!

I like the sound of that E30

I've always fancied dropping an F20C into an E30 - maybe that would be the perfect coming together of your passions

Cheers for the welcome guys! And cheers for the heads-up on the AP1/AP2 situation.
The S2000 wiki is interesting, that Club racer version they got in the US sounds cool, even if just by it's name!

I'd love an F20C in my E30 too, the M52 that I currently have fitted is running about 230bhp, but doesn't rev out as high as I'd like and is also a bit fragile due to the old Vanos situation.
