Honestly, having Mexican AND Swiss Heritage, I have many family members that don't speak English well and I actually got the impression that it likely wasn't his first language...
I was trying to be helpful in my translation because I felt like I could tell what he was saying...I added the joke at the end because that's just my style.

I never ridicule someone that can't help their shortcoming. That's a fact.

just realized rockstar21 and rockstar143 are two different people

also my car is almost back to stock now save for the suspension. driving a quiet s2000 around town is sooooo nice after two years of having loud exhaust hahaha

I often wonder if I would prefer it...
yeah...he once changed his avatar to mine. Pretty funny move.

Quit double posting, you crackhead.

I've been dailying my S2000 for three weeks because the weather has been fantastic for the most part.

The most amazing thing about it is how light and nimble it is. I got back into my V for some weekend errand driving yesterday and it felt like a boat with so much body lean compared to the S2000, LOL! And the V is a pretty good track car, so you know the suspension is pretty good. I'm almost afraid to see how much body lean I'd notice in a "regular" car. I'm sure I'd feel as if the car was going to roll over when turning.

BTW, you know you drive an S2000 when you reach for the radio volume control flapper with your left hand......when you're in your other car. I did this multiple times driving the V this weekend.

Isn't that crazy, Bob? A non S2000 owner would probably think you went off your meds making statements like that. But I agree...9 times out of 10, I reach for the S keys before the TL. There's just something about top down driving and the light nimble feeling you mentioned.

Picked up my new wheels too, btw. I'm in love.

Pics of new wheels please.

My mother and I spent some quality time together yesterday - in past times, we have always washed our cars religiously - I think I know where I got it from.

She takes delivery of the S2000 in late August.

Not very original consider it's the wheel I have on the TL, but in S fitment. But what can I say, I love what I love.

How does the 215 look on the 9"? After attending my first s2k meet this past weekend I am more than convinced not to roll or modify my fenders.

Almost bought a 2004 WDP with tan interior, completely stock, decent condition, no records (from dealership) and 47k on the clock this weekend...but decided against it.

I really want a 2006 or newer car and am willing to wait for the right one to come around. Unfortunate that they stopped the white/tan combo, really liked the look of that car. Even better would be white/cinnamon.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

save the fenders! no excessive roll/pull!!

hate chewed up fenders

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

me too!

They aren't too aggressive at all.

Sam, almost positive that on an S2000 it's Grand Prix White.

DSC_1812 by swimex37, on Flickr

Here they are, I want to say that the 245's are on the ground, other two are the 215.
Hard to discern

That's what I meant, sorry. Either way, love the combo but waiting for the right car. Hoping to snag one in the wintertime when the costs are lower.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

white/tan is the best color combo and if you don't agree well the hell with you.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

also, these need to hurry up and come out... nothing that I would leave on there constantly, but def. funny for when my passenger needs to charge as well ( I keep mine plugged in)

we have the perfect car for them lol

Costco

GPW, black/red interior. das it mane

SamDoe1

Any reports of seat dyeing on newer cars? Would love to dye S2k seats to BMW cinnamon...

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

new seat wraps aren't generally a bank-breaking purchase... especially if you buy one of the pre-stitched skins...

I don't know anything about dyeing them.

MarbleGT

Colorbond is the chit as far as dying goes.

i took two chits this morning.

rockstar how do you change your username color and avatar post on the same page? Very confusing, man.

well, I was being funny since you guys brought up the fact that there are two of us...then realized that it wasn't that funny.

My name color is out of my control though! Once a regional coordinator it defaults to orange.

I tried to be a chapter leader... I was denied.. and now the region is dead... way to go AZ

Also, what's with the new crappy mobile version of AZ I'm forced to use or am I'm missing the desktop option?

oonowindoo

I have had Ap2 V1 and Ap2 V2.... i personally prefer the Ap2 V1 (2004-2005)

Why do you want 2006+ so bad? Are you planning to do some FI work? if not, there is really no difference since there is no power gain for NA mods anyways.

Costco

Yeah I'm just dragging this joke out way too far... heh

I don't blame them.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

I got asked...

Then again, I was already setting up all the local meets anyway. Had one yesterday, small group, but had fun. At this point it's a bunch of friends bbq'ing.

Rockstar21

oh yea!?

ps. if you aren't on S2000 talk on FB... its full of lolz.

If it's anything like the Acura pages I will stay away from them...
I despise the fkng lazy ahole morons that frequent those pages with the fire of 1000 suns.

Seriously contemplating swapping to steel lugs...I had bad experiences with aluminum studs and how easily they strip in the past. I had to get them to go orange but I found a set of gold studs that could work...it's steel with a gold cap, project mu knockoff style. Hmmm...

Gold could be a good accent color...and no more tightening my ahole every time I torque down.

Look for "view full site" option at the bottom of the page. Should take you to the desktop view.
