Default S2000's Favorite Spot to live...

I geusssss im talking about california, and which state not countries...
If you dunno, where would u prefer to live with ur S? Im in florida, i wish i was back in CT. Back country/ winding roads HEAVEN. Also, tons of accidents...

But i personally think that CA has the most S2k's living in the state compared to anywhere else. I think one could go balls out and even say San Diego might lead it if you consider area size:cars ratio...


I mean why the hell not right? One of the best place FOR the S! (-smog laws, lets just scrap that for now tho)

You can get it all! Great winding roads or nice straights, go for a drive by the beach, and in the same day go do some doughnuts in the snow if you really had the desire to do so! And in san diego even more so, you can drive with the top down 90% of the year.

Basing my guess on the number of posts in the Regional forums...SoCal is second only to the entire UK.

Gotta agree Cali has every variety of open top driving we enjoy - beaches, mountains, canyons, deserts, all within an hours drive. Smog laws do suck though.

!!??! Have you ever been there? Except for the 2 bigger islands of hawaii which do still have similiar streets, half of the other island streets would be pure death to the S2k...dirt roads for two way traffic that would make me scared to be next to someone even if i was driving in this car (at bottom) And the worst part is...the turns are so sharp, you have to honk the horn around every corner...
Minus think about how small the island is, one modded out s2k would be well known quick. And shipping...

Yeah So Cal for sure, and yes San Diego is a strong possibility. Living in SD I see on average 3 per day, not including my own car. One out of the three is always a Silverstone, they are everywhere haha.

SoCal without a doubt. Socal is one of the densest populations to begin with, It's Honda's number one car market, and it's year 'round converitble weather with decent roads.

I see almost 4 s2ks driving daily on oahu. In my school parking structure, there are about 10 regular S's that I see normally.

There are quite a few in Arizona as well. I've seen 10+ in one day while driving around town.

I've also heard that speed enforcement is very strict in Hawaii.

I'd also say California has the most S2000s, its a huge state and its good climate for convertibles. I'm fine with NC though. Mountains, beach, foothills, straights, plus different weather for better or worse. Pretty much every kind of road and every kind of road condition, but the really bad weather is typically measured in days per year. No CARB, low taxes, and a high percentage of paved roads away from the masses.

NC/SC are a lot like North Cali/Oregon/Washington in terms of topology and climate I think - two good places to live with an S2000.
