I received my car on Feb 1, 2000 and have over 17,000 miles on it already. I didn't buy it to look at; I didn't buy it to sell to a collector in two years; I didn't buy it to pose (although you end up doing some of this anyway with all of the attention you get); I bought it to drive a world class road car and that is what I am doing.

The driving has been mostly top down but as it gets into winter the top will go up on days where the temperature is below about 45 degrees. I find it uncomfortable top down at colder temps than that.

I have had no problems with the car at all with two exceptions. One, the paint job seems to chip a bit easier than I would have expected. Two, I have had the 1-2 grind a few times after some high speed operation.

Finally, I generally keep my vehicles for a long time (well over 100,000 miles) and I don't think that this one will be an exception.

Bought on 6/28/00. Have just shy of 6,000 miles on it.

No problems to speak of, other than some bubbles forming on the dash.. gotta get it replaced.

Got my S2000 on 11/23/1999 and it has about 9300 miles. Check the weather every day and if there is a chance of precipitation, then it stays in the garage, hence the low mileage. Have kept every car that I have ever owned until it could no longer be driven. Have even kept non-repairable cars for several years before I finally had them towed away. Expect that I will do the same with my S2000. My 1986 Celica, which gets driven every day, now has 170,000 miles. If the S2000 does not do at least that well, then I will be disappointed.
