Some questions from a newb......
Hi Guys,
Been spying for a while finally though I'd join. First of all let me say what a large and wonderful forum this is. Never seen one like full of information from literally across the globe. Huge resource for you lucky S2000 owners. Well impressed!
I have just sold my Audi TT after nearly 3 years of blissful ownership. As you have probably guessed by now i am looking for something to replace it with, and guess what? Yup, its going to be an S2000!
I will be taking the plunge this weekend, but have loads of questions I need answers to, and as I'm a lazy sod I couldnt be arsed doing a search so was hoping some of you could advise me.......
1) When did the facelift version come out? 2002, but when?
2) What should I look for to tell the diference between the two?
3) What is the difference betweenteh GT and standard car?
4) I pressume aircon is standard?
5) What does 17500 get me in todays market, bearing in mind we are in the depths of winter?
6) What sort of MPG can I expect on a day to day basis?
7) Whats the hood like? Is it worth getting a hardtop?
8) Are they all 6 speeders?
Thanks in advance.

No not driven one yet. Although had a blast in a collegues civic type r, that engines got me hooked!
Quality wise, I wouldnt expect it to be up with the TT, what else is. Performance wise, I 'd think they'd be roughly equal, althoguh corners who knows?
Its the engine, noise, rev-ability(if thats a work) and the looks of the thing that have got me in making a potential purchase.

I have a hard top for mine, I like it, but some people think they're a waste of time. Have a look here https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=261999
You will probably be able to get an 02 for that money, they have a glass screen, 2 extra speakers, a few other cosmetic changes and a slightly different suspension setup. There was another facelift in 2004.
