Default s2000 a daily driver

I'm thinking about getting a s2k, I was wondering how would it make as a daily driver, espically in the rainy city of WA. Also how does it run in the snow...

I daily drive my S.. just slow down in the rain. and dont expect to carry big things in the trunk... say a computer box...

I have yet to put my S in snow but I heard if you put some sandbags in the trunk and get snow tires its isnt that bad.

always keep your tires good and don't do anything stupid, you will be fine on the rain.

Havent driven in snow, or very much rain, but the car is fine for me as a DD. People complain about the bumpy ride, but it doesnt bother me; bumps are there, but not backbreaking.

I'm in Denver CO and it's been my only vehicle for 6+ years now. I run 18's in the summer and my stock 16's with true snow tires in the winter (no sand bags)....haven't had too many problems.
