Buy a beater. Conentrate on school. And when you graduate buy the S2000.

This is definitely the kind of car you don't want to skimp on insurance with. Comprehensive is a must since everything is so expensive. I got my car right after graduating HS and right now it is my DD, so it is definitely doable, but probably not the best idea.

There are way too many personal aspects to factor in, that you post most likely didn't even scratch the surface of what you should take into consideration. Knowing what your personal situation is would be the most important consideration here. Everyone "values" something different when buying a car have have to take into account all those personal factors to know what will be best for them.
As far as my personal opinion? I had to use my S as my DD for about a month in between settling my previous DD and buy my new DD and it was horrible. Keep in mind I also only commute about 2-3 miles a day on the weekdays. If I was force to only have one car only, it would NOT be the S. While fun and all, there are just too many limitations you would have to live with.
Plus you think you would be ok when you have to drive a girl and her hot friend home, but it is not as easy as you might think to double stack them!!!

the s2k isnt a great DD (neither is my fc turbo II but whtever). i'd highly recommend picking up a beater first and driving that around for a bit. no offense but a lot of people think they can handle the s...till u push it too much and the rear kicks out.

buy a used civic for college. save your money for after graduation or spend it on tuition, books, room & board. or perhaps beers, coke, weed, hookers, strippers, or whatever else that college students hooked on these days.

if your just getting it for the girls it doesnt matter. girls care about whats in your pants and your wallet. cant have a fat wallet if your spending most of your money on your S, and the pants part ilets just say i can get away driving my DD and still pull them hoe's.but yea all in all you should get a reg car to get you from point A to B and some so cal trips here and there
