Bought a new S2000

so I finally did it last night. I bought a new S2000. I was contemplating over the S or an STi, but I just love the drop top. Currently driving my civic for the week till I register the S in CT, since I bought it out of state.

LOL......I've come to the realization the Hondas are just ecoboxes....I give up on dumping money ointo them. The S is very highstrung and makes power at like 10,000,000 rpm, and can be fast with lowered compression and turbo but I still believe AWD is the way to go. Sorry but I've been converted to a STi/Evo lover and I have plans to buy one of the two.

ya I love the S2000. If you've never been in an S2000 then you'll know that it's like no other Honda out there. It feel more like a German built car rather than a Honda. I would love an STi, but just still love that classic sports car feel. = small rear wheel driver. I know the STi is fast, but I don't care cause the Honda is more fun to drive IMO.

Congrats on the new car Josh. I remember you saying this at the last meet at Joe's house. As for me, I give up on my vic now too. Getting married this June and I have two years left to pay off the civic. In the meantime, I'm saving my money for the Sti. I've been wanting one since they came out. Now that I actually got a pretty good raise, I want it even more than I did before. I plan on trading in with more money down on top of that so my payments won't be too bad.

after saving for so long and with a large downpayment the S2000 only costs me $21 more a month than my civic does. Now I just have to sell my civic.

I currently have two potential buyers who would take the car "as is" otherwise I might end up parting it out and selling my car off stock. In no rush right now since I have it paid off till end of February.
