Just wondered if everyones S2000 is their first real performance car or did you guys and gals sell your Porsches, Mercs, and BMWs to join the S2000 club?

I have only owned 4 cars:

Talbot Simca (painfully slow) > Toyota Camry (made me look like a dodgy mini cab driver)> Suzuki Cappuccino (bloody superb drive!) > S2000

What did everyone else have in the past?

Honda Civic Esi (4 dr 1.6)

1983 MG Metro (which spent more time off the road than on it)
1993 Ford Fiesta 1.6 Si
1995 Vauxhall Tigra 1.6i
1999 Mazda MX5 1.8i

Yup - the S2000 will be the first truly performance car I've owned, although the MX5 has been a LOT of fun to drive.
