Finally got a new car
I picked up a 2000 S2000 on Friday
Its silverstone metallic with black interior and it has 15k miles on it.
Im a new stick driver and it was a blast (w/ scary moments) learning over the weekend. Its such a fun car. I'll post pix when its sunny enough for me to wash her first.
Of course its a totally different car then a CL-S but its sweet. I do miss the CL's luxury and comfort.

I'll definately do that, but as far as mods i'm gonna save for a hardtop before anything else. My dream would be ITB's, but thats probably never going to happen. Need to pay the car off first.

Yeah stick isn't too bad at all to learn.
The clutch in my s2000 is actually pretty heavy which makes it a little harder then say a civic but still okay.
I spent about 30 mins in a mall parking lot at about 9am learning to go from a stop and then I drove around the mall twice. Then I drove on the streets, found some nice open roads in a farming area, took it on the freeway and drove home. I still need to work on hill and starting for a stop, but I think one or two more lesson and I'll be good. Overall anyone should be able to do it with a little patients and practice. Like Scrib said don't try to be a race car driver on day one, be like grandma until your comfortable with the car and everything.

Weather is still crappy today but i took some pix after a drive today.
Car's pretty stock so nothing fancy.
Neat thing though the car has a stealth modded radar detector
