My new car...
Okay, here's my new baby:
I was looking for power, handling and interior space. This was my first choice. I was also debating about getting the Acura CL-S and Accord EXV6 6MT. I'm glad I ended up with the G35.
We test drove their demo car and beat the crap out of it!
I mean full on acceleration through third gear (in a 35 mph zone!) and fully tested the brakes. The car handles very well for it's size. Although it's no S2000 in the corners, it does a good job. Oh yeah, my wife beat the crap out of the demo too! 
I was sad to let go of the S2000 (my wife was sadder than me), but I just couldn't stand the bogging in everyday traffic anymore. Hopefully with two more cylinders and almost twice the torque, I won't have this problem anymore.
This is the first white car I've owned (second for my wife), but it's a nice change after three straight black cars.

Now that I'm no longer a S2000 owner, who wants to step up for the community organizer role and maintain the Hawaii S2000 Owners website? I'll continue to do it until someone takes over. Let the bidding begin!

Whoa!! 
Congratulations, Rick. I like your new car. You've got to take me for a cruise!
Nice 'red eyes' picture in the dark.
So did you trade in your car? What did they give you for it? Did you give them the hardtop too?
BTW, I don't have any servers... hell, I don't even have a windows platform, but I spend enough time on this site. Tell me what I need to do and what kind of responsibilities are involved in taking over the community organizer and website.

smccurry, you would make a good choice since you already a paid member of the site. I never did pay, I was never asked to pay since I already did a lot for this site and RSXWorld.

Nice car Rick. That's the exact car Marky (SoWhatDen) bought and the same color. Very nice choice. Good luck with your new car and hope you still come out for the S2k events.
I also think Steve should be the new community organizer. Its either him or Colin really IMO. They have been around the longest and are members and know what the deal is.
Talk to you soon..
