How many of you have an S2000 as a "daily driver" or only car?

how's the soft top on winters? I mean is it weather resistant enough to handle the coldness? Thanks. I'm looking to get a used one as my only car too.

The heater is so powerfull that even though it's been around 10 degrees for the last few days here I can run myself out of the car. Seriously, I have to turn the heat down after about 5-10 minutes. The soft top isn't relevent because the heater is so powerfull for such a small space. Now try to put the top down under 40 degrees with the heater on and you'll get cold. I've done it at around 50 and was fine with a leather coat on!

i only drive my s2000 in the summer, i drive couple of times a week. I use my SL 55 a bit more but thats just because its more comfortable for longer trips. But i think my honda is more fun to drive! I live in sweden so we have a long winter, on the winter i drive other cars How is the s2000 in the winter?
