Zamo, we think alike buddy

And you explained it very well.

 

Rigoddamndiculous deal...really. That's excellent.

 

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

The S2k was not really high on my list because it did not have heated seats, but an opportunity to walk away with a $30k+ car for < $400/m and NOTHING out of pocket, I had no choice.

BTW, this car handles like nothing I have driven, excluding the 986 Boxster S.

 

I was very, very close to buying one but was a little uncomfortable not being able to see out of the windshield if I got too close to a light...drove it for the better part of the weekend...great car otherwise though and still give it some thought as a second car someday.

 

That is a valid point. It has been a great second car for me!

 

I would love to pick one of these up for a second toy car, but I just can't fit-my knee is wedged inbetween the steering wheel and lower part of the dashboard/upper part of the transmission tunnel.

If it wasn't for this, I would already be driving one.

 

Fortunately I fit very well (5'10" 174 lbs) in the car, but think it is silly that the car does not have tilt wheel!

 

what's the insurance rate for S2000 compare with the TL?

 

The car had a symbol 24 out of 27. Pretty high.

I imagine the rate will ultimately depend on location, deductables, coverage and driving record.

 

nevermind

i have a clean record but still cost me an arm and a leg coz i am under 25

 

When I swapped my cl-s for an s2000 my insurance went up $60/6 months.

(This was before I was 25).

 

You may want to look into it... I was tossed up between an Elise and the S2k right now I am 99% sold on the honda. I priced both from my insurance company, the Elise was $720/6 months, the S2000 is $810/ 6 months. I was confused why the Elise was less then the S2000, but its not the end of the world. For the record I am 24 with a spotless record, amd both policies had substantially larger then minimum coverage.

 

i am paying 2900 a year for my TL which is consider cheap in Toronto

if i get a Civic EX it will be 3500 a year

if i get a G35 coupe 6MT it will be 4600 a year

if i get a 330ci it will be 6000 a year

if i get a STi it will be over 8000 a year

if i get a S2000 it will be much more than that

 

Holy crap that sucks! Oh Canada...
