Default S2K retired from daily duty, replace with...

Hello all,
We have a great S2K community here. Everyone waves, it's great

With my MY02 at 85K miles, and a desire to keep it in great condition (it has ZERO RUST as I'm from FL), I've decided to retire it from daily duty. It will still be driven once a week and on weekends, but will not see the salt roads.

I've picked up a 2012 Mazdaspeed3. It's a ton of fun, and about 500% more practical. Still, it's about 100HP under my S2K...it feels faster, but it's certainly not (about the same as a stock S2K). Torque sure is fun, though (280 lb-ft).

So, if you see someone with a Speed3 waving, it might be me!

I was thinking about replacing my daily driver with this car, but my wife can't drive stick. Enjoy!

Congrats! Be prepared to replace tires at a S2000 rate with that, too. Those things eat through tires.
