I'll keep my eyes open on an S for you Trey. Any particular year/color?

Sorry to hear about your S, I can't really tell from the pics, but are those S02's? What was the thread life on them? I currently have all season Yokohama's on and have thought about buying some S02's if they were cheap enough for the summer, but reading so many horror stories about the poor performance of the S02's in the rain, I guess I'll just stick to the all seasons.

Porsche recently lost (or just settled?) a lawsuit by a woman who's husband died as a passenger of a Carrera GT that crashed at California Speedway.
You guys are making me nervous about the wife driving in the rain. She drives the S2000 about half the time. Right now the car has new Winter Sports on it. Next summer the OEM summer tires with 10k miles on them go back on. The center grove has 6/32 of an inch left. The groves closer to the sides of the tires have a little less. The car has never felt squirly but I would hate to hit deep standing water.
As for the impulse to replace the car you wrecked with another one. Think about it. What was the right car for your situation a few years ago might have changed. Like gas prices have. Now would be the time to test drive some other cars
