Huh? How do any of your questions relate to the S2000? Everyday, I can't wait to get back in for any reason.

After 15,000 miles in 6 months, I still LUV this car!

Yu888 and Sumir Brahmbhatt,

you said it!

I pulled the cover off of my S 3 weeks ago and I was in awe. She looked just as beautiful as the first time that I saw her sitting on the showroom floor. She really misses the road... but not the salt and snow.

Thanks sunchild for your comments, what u said is true and pretty much anyone with 2 brain cells could have answered them like that.

Maybe :
1) Because they couldn't be arsed, or even that it would have removed some of the appeal of the NSX? Its a shame though, you got to admit it's pretty poor below 5kRPM.

2)Your mini handles better cause it's wicked!

Solutions to your problem-

- Sell it
- use a light scratch removing cleaner wax (works wonders)
- get a supercharger
- take the top down and enjoy the outdoors rather than the car sound at 3K
- get an x brace and upper front brace to improve handling, adjust tire pressure to taste, sit back and enjoy a video of a Corvette flipping trying to follow an S2000 on the track
- Get a neat new accessory, like a hard top to improve your mood

Actually, If I lived in England, I would buy an Elise to keep my Stook company in the garage...

If I coould get my hands on an Elise, I would plop my money down in a fraction of a second. BUT (capital B U T) I would still keep my Stook: because it is one of the best looking fun to drive cars I have ever seen/experienced in my life.

I'll be keeping my S forever (even when my soon to be wife lets me buy additional more expensive sports cars)

Yea, so many of us are tired of it that we spend much of our working days posting to a forum about the car, dream of the next day that we can go out driving the car and some of us are so bored with the whole thing that we are driving across the country to meet a bunch of people for a weekend who are also bored with the car...

Yea, I can't WAIT to get out in my 4Runner on the way home today!



The infrequent occasions that I have been able to take Scarlet out over the last few months have been truly spectacular...no, can't imagine boredom with a car like this...and I'm going on 1 year and 4 months of ownership...

I'm looking forward to my first track event this year...March 10-11 at one of my favorite places, Gingerman Raceway! It'll probably bore me so much that I won't know what to do with myself...



And I'm not even uptight...! Now Sunchild, he's a different story!!

i've got a friend in Sheffield who's looking for a good deal on an S2K.

given your complaints i think i have the solution.

he's got a R5-Turbo and i'm sure he'd be willing to trade. it handles better than the mini, is fast as hell, has been rallyed extensively (so any new scratches will be invisible), sounds like an F-14 at 3k RPM and you won't have to worry about it attracting chicks.

sounds like a match made in heaven!

Amen brother!!! I have the car for 15 months now and never once got bored with it whether it rains or shines. Besides, I dig all the attention I get while driving the car. I might get bored with the [red]lady[/red] sometimes (hope my wife doesn't see this ) but my S2K, no way!!!
