Default Now what do i do


I've decided on getting a brand new parallel import s2000. Do I wait for the 2005 model or just order a 2004 one now? Ordering takes 4-6 weeks so its a bloody long time and even longer if i wait for a 2005 version in october. Is it likely the 2005 model will be significantly different from the 2004 because I am starting to get desperate for a s2000? I'm driving about in a real freak show of a

You can keep waiting, but why? As soon as you can order the 2005 you'll want to wait for the 2006 Do you really think the 2004 will bring you any less pleasure... I doubt it!

Common consensus is that there will not be any major change between the 2004 and 2005 model. I'd go for it now!

Mate are you selling yours

Can I ask why a paralell import-are they still cheaper?-just interested.

If you want to buy new-why not buy a 2nd hand one now-see if you like it, then exchange at a later date

Moggy - no I'm not selling only thing I dislike about mine is the plastic rear screen!

Though I have just done a DIY suede shelf mat to stop it scratching!

As I only have 15K miles on it and 18 months extended warranty left I'm in no hurry to sell! When I do I want a glass rear screen, a hard top and the old body style so it will be a MY03 GT as late as possible.
