Default more respect to the S

2 seperate incidents of respect paid to my gleaming new S within 10 mins of each other yesterday!
Firstly, on my way to the local Mitsi dealership to view the Evo V111, a riced up green Lexus IS200 pulls up next to me when I'm stationary at a red light. Guy drops the window and says "what do you think of it then, your S2000?" "superb mate, go and buy one" I reply. He comes back with "looks great!"....."thanks"I say and the lights change, I drop the clutch and boot it just a little harder than usual......................
Five mins later and I'm at the Mitsi Centre having left the S topless outside the open workshop doors. Took a quick look round the Evo and glance round to see 3 technicians paying close attention to it. "come to look at a proper car lads?" I say jokily..........

This car makes you feel special every time you get into it. Anyone who's contemplating buying one should "JUST DO IT!"

The S is a magical car. Its so niche.

Everyone will have a glance and the street cred it holds with kids is so high. They watch F+F, they watch 2F2F, they know the score.

Iffy storylines, but great `bigups` for our little old S`s.

Honda have worked magic with this car and I`ll never stop liking it.


In 20 years time, when who knows what I`ll be in....one things for sure, I`ll ALWAYS look back at my S days fondly. They have been the best driving days of my life, bar none. Great car, great community, great friends.

A love affair sourced in Japan. We salute you Sochiro-san.

Yes, its really quite straight forward in a round-a-bout way.
