Default Newbie from the Bay Area

Just bought a very clean stock 2001 S2000 with an AP2 roof off of an s2ki member. I'm new here but not new to NSXPrime. I'm retiring my 3000GT VR4 Twin Turbo as a daily drivee and putting the S2000 in its place. I've been to S2000 meets in the Integra before (one on Highway 1 to half moon bay, as well as the Friday Milpitas Asian Mall meets) but now have an S2000 for myself. It's a neat little car, I find it extremely underpowered even at the top end but I'm used to low end torque. Not that I need it, it's just getting me to work and back with the top down :-).



It needs badges, but other than that the car feels new. I had my local Honda specialist do a full check over (compression, valve retainers, etc.) and it's doing great.

Thanks for stopping by, hope to meet some of you soon...

Congratulations!! Looks clean. Yes, I wished the s2000 had more torque but I don't really care about going fast. I can always get something that's faster but I'd rather cruise slowly and enjoy the outdoor top-down experience. Hopefully you can make it to the Milpitas Friday meet tonight. I will be there
