Royal purple is a brand of oil. If you want to have it done somewhere I would probably just go to the dealer. I have had good luck at Leesburg Honda. I do my own oil changes and its quite easy. Go ahead and read this DIY

Whatever you do No quick lube shops. I figured it would be OK and they over torqued my drain bolt and ruined the pan. Ended having to get a new oil pan. Never again for me.

I agree do your own oil change. You will get to know your car better and have the sense of accomplishment that goes along with it.
Oh I use mobile 1 myself and love it. When I switched from dino oil i noticed the difference

FYI -
I was at Advanced Auto Parts (the one in Centreville) yesterday and they have a sale on Mobil 1 oil (all kinds, including the fully synthetic one) for about $26 for a case of 6.

seems with your knowladge you dont need to do it your self.....just take it some where..no to sound like an ass hole but if you ask where royal purple is I think you should just take it somewhere sorry!!!
Go to the Honda dealer and ask the service dept if they have someone that works on S2000's then be all over them during the service while you wait.
