That's stunning.
Exactly what I'll be after. Is that Spa? Rio? Indy?
1] Could we have some more details if possible? Year? Mileage? Price, if you don't mind!
2] How are you finding the transition from 130bhp to 237bhp? I presume this is your first RWD too...
3] More pics !

I did have an MX5 before this so I'm used to rear wheel drive.

That Car looks very familiar! Still looks as stunning as it was when i had it!
Still miss it now, and tempted in the future to get another

How's the back? I had it detailed this weekend so don't worry it is been well looked after. I haven't driven it as much as I liked the weekend I got back I was seriously assaulted and I've been in and out of hospital.

Very few cars suit yellow, I think - but the S is one (F355 another?)

I think the official colour name is Indy Yellow Pearl. I'll double check that for you. The details, 2004 year, FHSH (Just been serviced by the previous owner), 30k Miles, K&N (Already fitted) and it had two new rears.
I did have an MX5 before this so I'm used to rear wheel drive.

No wonder it looks perfect; given those details, it would certainly fall out (over!) my budget - but it's pretty much THE car I want!!
Sorry to hear about your bad news. At least it gives you the opportunity to admire your S2000 whilst you recover...
(more pics please 
)

Nice car , all the best with injuries, unfortunately the scumbag who did it will likely only get a slapped wrist.

Don't temp me - I wish I could ! I've yet to actually be a passenger in a S2000 let alone drive one. I was looking to possibly buy early next year but seeing your pics makes it very hard to wait that long!
Realistically the bummer is that my budget (around the 8k mark) would not allow for an S in the condition that yours is in. So I may always feel left wanting a better one...
Reason I asked about the power difference is that I may be going from a 167bhp FWD to this 237bhp RWD, slightly cautious of lack of VSA and the all too common horror stories of it being a monstor to handle once the surface becomes a tiny bit greasy/wet. [/OT]
Congrats on the purchase, hope you enjoy it.
