Default Please Tell Me Its Worth It!

hi, im currently a junior in high school and drive a civic si and my moms CL because shes out of the country. if i save until the first year of college, i believe i could get myself a s2000. but it seems so far away, and i am going to be stuck with my civic until then. when i laid my eyes on an s2000, it was love at first site, but it seems like so many factors are holding me back from purcashing one, ie. insurance. i knoe most people on this board love their s2k's, please tell me that its worth suffering for 2 more years.

btw......any estimates for the price on 2000-2001 models used in around june 2003?

I wish I had had a Civic when I was in college. Heck, I wish I had had a Civic after I'd graduated from college.

Patience, all things in their time.

Suffering with a Civic Si!

I'm sure that most people wish that they had suffered as much as you at your age!

My first car was a 1957 Dodge. It cost $100. It looked like sh*t. (fins!!) But 1) it had a backseat and 2) it had a semi-hemi engine and was the third fastest car in my high school!

You won't regret it if you get an s2000 during college. I say enjoy it while your young. Also follow what others have said and get a beater car. I'm almost finish with my first year of college, but I hardly drove my s2k to school (see my sig for my beater car ).
