I regret selling mine...I figured with the way the economy going owning an s2000 with a payment+insurance and having it parked for the winter while driving a beater civic wasnt ideal. I now replaced both vehicles with an 05 acura tsx and still regret selling the s2k, though the tsx is a perfect daily I still miss my s2k. When I pay at least half of the TSX off I plan on picking up another s2

I'm thinking of selling mine. I know I'll miss it, but sometimes you have to be realistic...this may not be a car I can afford right now.

I bought my first one a couple years ago entirely on a whim, drove it for 6 months and went back to another M3, after a few months I was missing the S2k.
I am a long time BMW club member and do allot of stuff with BMW so I couldn't bring myself to just have the S2k so I sold the M3 and bought an E30 325i from a friend for $2k and then bought an S2k. I use the E30 for BMW track events and for when I need to haul stuff or pick up the kids, the S2k is my daily driver.

I had contemplated selling my s for the past year to purchase a truck, but I knew I would miss it. So i ended up keeping the s and still bought a truck. Best of both worlds
Me too but my GF talked me into keeping it. Glad she did.

Don't miss it one bit, but will probably get another one down the line as a weekend car. A lot of memories with the car (good and bad) but it was time to move on.

Don't sell your S...buy a beater.


I sold my first S2k about two years ago; I was commuting a lot so I bought a Fit. The Fit did it's job, but it just wasn't enough. Then I moved closer to work..

Within a couple months I sold the Fit and bought a Civic DD and another S2k. I couldn't be happier. Although now I have a new problem... a track obsession!

I will never sell mine. Before owning mine I would always oversleep and be late to work. Now I wake up on time. I look forward to driving my S every day.

sold my first S a few years ago, regretted it ever since....

last year I picked up another one to fill that void, unfortunately I didn't get that same thrill from it I once had...I love the car, but am looking into getting a newer TL or TSX..I just don't use the S2000's full potential anymore. I have driven both the TL and TSX and think I will be fully satisfied with either car.

now if I had the money to modify the S2000 to where I wanted it to be, that would be a different story. But my cash priorities are need elsewhere for probably the next 4-5 years.
