Drop a v6 into it w/ a hardtop, and I smell a Cayman competitor... I'd be interested, but then again, I'd be interested in any RWD coupe H/A made...

This is something that has been a problem for years. It sucks that guys steal our seats. We've had guys in Austin have their roof slashed open to get to them.

Actually, it was missing the cat that did the damage. Had I hit the little fucker, the car would have been fine...until someone kicked in my fender...then whacked the door...

Believe it or not, a small mice ended up inside my S2000 (I don't know how it got in, but it was sitting by the console and jumped underneath the passenger side seat)

I had to remove the seat to remove the mice and I couldn't believe how easy it was to remove the seats. I wonder why Honda made it so accessible and convenient...
