...If I Bought Another S2000.

(1) I definitely wouldn't put anything on the vinyl roof except soap and water.

(2) I'd wax the wheels as soon as I got it home. Strangley I've only started doing this recently... it's a tip I picked up off this board. The ease with which the brake dust comes off the waxed wheels is remarkable.

(3) I wouldn't cheat during the running- in period.

 

(1) Will never fart in his Blue seats
(2) Perm stop picking his nose while driving
(3) Never eat in the car
(4) No burn out or donuts

DC You're a mess!

Oh and I wouldn't smoke in the car!......... maybe!

 

I agree with 2 & 3. I have always washed the roof with the special Porsche shampoo and have been very happy with it.

What other things ...

Well I wouldn't trust the quoted delivery dates
Take the air box off sooner
Get Zaino on sooner
Consider changing the tyres to F1's
Drive it more!

 

I would have just gotten the titanium Voodoo knob right off the bat. As much as I like the spun aluminum, I think the heavier Ti one would have felt better.

 

How much did you cheat and what effect do you think it will have?

I have 300 miles on my S2000. I haven't intentionally cheated but I did make the mistake of not reading the owner's manual. As a result, I was using 6,000 RPM as the upper rev limit (not sure where I got that from) when the stated limit is 5,500. I'm wiser now but just wondering about the long term effect of having visited 6K a time or two ( OK, OK, maybe more than a time or two but not much more ) in the first 300 miles.

I would have waited for the boot and front lip spoiler.
(Well maybe not - had to drive the car !)

So I guess I wouldn't have done anything differently !
