Your dad gave you his s2000? Keep it and show your dad some gratitude and don't waste thousands repainting the car if it's in perfectly good shape.

No kidding! Thanks dad!

Sell it and buy a silverstone. Or just keep it and be happy he laid one of the best cars around on you for free.

..with everyone here. Your father has blessed your life. Leave it stock, you can't mod on your budget. If you really don't like the color, talk to your father before changing the car. After all, it was a gift, a very nice one.

Take care.

You best bet is to take your money and spend it on some autocrosses, IMO. It'll do way, way more for your appreciation of the car than some crappy paintjob or bodykit.

leave it yellow dude. if you want to do some body mods, then get a front lip and a rear spoiler. just those 2 body mods completely change the way the car looks. I'd personally prefer a stock trunk lid and a 2004 front bumper conversion with Mugen underwing, but that's just me. gluck

- Im going to college this year and there isn't any other color i'd want...... unless you dont like hot girls that want rides in your car all the time. Trust me, I am young and I would love more hp also, but learn the car inside and out before you mod it. You don't realize how much power it has until it sneaks up on you. Also everything for the car is expensive, I thought I saved up enough money to put mods into the car and than I had to buy new tires, a new clutch, front brakes, get inspection and pay for insurence........ trust me, things you dont plan for really add up. Enjoy a sick car, dont change the paint!!!!! As for other mods... wait a while.
