Pictures of my S2000

[FlatBlackCaddy]

  I have my first meet tomorrow, I'm meeting around 40 S2K owners.  Hopefully it should be cool.    

Cool, i take it you hit up the local Forums and joined up. Seems pretty quick to be heading to the meets(nothing wrong with that).

So, whats on the mod list. 

[BMWDave]

Does it matter 

If i was racing for pinks i'd do a 5K clutch drop in the EVO, good for 4.6 seconds to sixty.

Yea, he would beat me.  

[FlatBlackCaddy]

Yea, he would beat me.  

I would win, i would also be out a clutch too.

But i would have an S2000

Wanna race me in the vehicle of my choice?

Sure as long as its one you own.....and have the title to prove it.

Yup, I joined the forums, and they told me theres a meet tomorrow morning, so I said I'm in!

Hmm, I probably won't mod the car for some time, and I don't want to mess with reliability (some engine mods) since this is a daily driver.  A hardtop is my most likely acquisition in the near future.

I don't plan on traveling to Minnesota anytime soon.

[FlatBlackCaddy]

I didn't mean performance, i assumed you want to shake it down before messing with mechanicals.

I figured some rims or suspension pieces(lowering Springs), something simple but enough to personalize it.

[FlatBlackCaddy]

Thats ok, i'll come to you.

[TheIntrepid]

I was planning on renting a DB9.

[FlatBlackCaddy]

Hmm, the Z might be able to take that. Then again i don't think you could pay the rental company when the car doesn't come back.

Well, I think the car is low enough now, it's not like an NC Miata where it rides high and you can lower it a lot.  It's pretty low as is, and I'm worried about scraping already.   I love the stock look, but when I get more familiar with the car, I'll look into mods and all that.  It's a downward slope from there.

How sad. I was looking forward to a free Evo.

Why?  So you can complain about the interior, wish it were an automatic, complain that it's not roomy enough, and say that it's not that much faster than your Intrepid?

probably not a smart choice to race his Z

Don't forget the lack of cruise control....

Thats cool, i don't see too many S2K around here. I figured the wheel gap was typical, even for a performance car. Both my Z and EVO could use a 1-1.5" drop to eliminate some of that gap.

Downward slope? Tell me about it.

Hit me up when you're planning something, I might be able to give you a preview with photoshop before you blow your cash.

Thanks!!   I still cant let you sit naked in my car though.

[TheIntrepid]

He wants to sit naked in your car?

[Raza]

You were his first choice, if that makes you feel better.

[Raghavan]

I could settle for a naked ride in the trunk while you drive by the tail of the dragon.

[TheIntrepid]

Ew. Naked guysin this thread. I'm leaving.

Also, none of you are to get into my car in the nude, you hear?

[BMWDave]

Haha, good one! 

[Panama_Chopster]

Also I read in MT's S2000/RX8/350Z comparo that they said the S2000 would be considered a classic for Honda a few decades ahead. I believe them.

[The Pirate]

Very, very nice looking!  From pictures, I always liked the blue a lot, but I happened to see one today the same color as yours (you weren't in Albany today, were you ), and I gotta say, that's the color to get!  It looked great.


I'm going to catch some shit for this, but there is something about Hondas.  I miss my old Civic, it just seemed to be more in touch with the road than any other affordable car I've driven.  Great clutch, brilliant shifter, great feedback, and she loved to rev.  I'd imagine the S2000 offers even more of those traits.

Should you find yourself in Albany, I will gladly offer you a night's lodging for a ride in the car.

Again, congrats, and have fun with it!

The car looks fantastic, Hondave.
