Depends on what she wearing (or not ) when she asked the question

 

 

Just picked her up last weekend. 6.5 hour drive to North Dakota from Minneapolis. 07 with 36k miles. $19.5k. Don't love the powder coated red rims but I don't hate them either. Was hoping I could use a set of 18x7.5 gold Advan RG's I picked up while on vacation in Phoenix, but the rears are too narrow.

Oh well. Just splurged on an RV6 true dual for the TL so cancel new rims for the S2 until next year or until I find a wider pair to go with my Advans.

 

Congrats once again! I'm jealous that you already have tinted windows and the front lip

 

Cracked the lip a little taking it off the trailer.

Tint isn't a big deal to me, and cops are dicks about tint in MN. Had to remove 30% tint off of my 06 Accord a couple years ago. The wife was getting too many warnings for it.

 

Welcome to the club

Another GPW owner!

 

TL and S2000...
That sounds like a winning combination...

 

Thanks! It was GPW or nothing. Wanted another championship white Type R but they are just too high of a theft magnet in the Twin Cities.

It's solid. Need to lose some weight because the s2k feels like my sweater after thanksgiving dinner.

 

LOL...I know it,
I have the same 2 cars...as do a few other people I know and a friend of mine recently joined that lineup.

 

Congrats man, welcome to the club!

Red rims look like a love/hate type of thing but you'll be putting the S2k to bed for the winter soon anyway. Good time to save up for other wheels.

FWIW, MN craigslist has tons of S2k parts that some of the hardparked crowd take off their very nice cars. There are almost always a nice set of wheels on there.

 

Really cool video on Speed Academy attempting to make an AP1 faster than a '14 F-Type around the track.

I follow that channel religiously. Love their episodes. Love how they call the car, ASS2000.

 

$4500 for that car?

Sign me up. I could use a dedicated track S2k and a beauty queen for the road.

 

$19.5k for a 07 GPW with 36k miles....... fuckkkkk you can literally make $5000 right now by flipping it. not that you should but you can.

 

OMG... That sounds like the perfect car... What a steal....

 

umm... he just got the perfect car.

 

Didn't read the posts earlier carefully ...

 

that set of youtubes was awesome, I loved it.

 

I drove 41.9 miles until the first notch from the gas gauge disappeared. 9 miles later, 2 more notches were gone. Wtf Honda

 

Last 4 bars = get gas.

 

That annoys the shiettt out of me...100 miles, only 1 bar. 101 miles...gas light.

 

 

Well, at least in my case, 200 miles...fill up, unless I highway and I can add 50.

 

I typically get gas around 230 miles. Check out mah suhweet Fuelly stats, yo.

27.1?

Your car came with VTEC right?

 

do you know how short penguin "legs" are? He idles everywhere!

 

No, it came with VTAK

My 73-mile commute only has 24-miles of "city" driving. The cruise is typically set at 80 when on the highway and I don't touch it.

 

my commute is short, but no highway. so i put gas once a month, but only get 18 mpg.

 

I get gas every 3-4 days

 

Sad thing is the prices are only going up from there...



They couldn't get everything right on the whole car, something had to go wrong.

So.
Very.
True.

73 mile commute every day in a S2000?

Fvck that.

 

only his love handles touch the bolsters...other than that, he's slim so it's a perfect fit.

 

2/3 is highway! It's fantastic to have the top down for 40+ minutes after being stuck inside all day.

 

It's been too hot to enjoy having the top down - It was 102 w/ 40% humidity on the way home yesterday ... in stop & go traffic

I rarely use the A/C, but it's been one of those weeks.

 

I don't even change to top down venting...I just point it at my face and blow hard as hell...windows up helps too...

 

Love it. I would do that for sure too if I had a convertible!

 

plus, it's NC...so, mostly nice weather, I'm sure.

 

Agreed, but the S2000 is not what you'd call a comfortable daily cruiser. As a sports car the S2000 is an unparalleled machine (sorry Miata people but it's true) but as a comfy cruiser...not so much.

If you were doing the same in a Mercedes SL then it would be a different story.

Agreed, top down in hot weather and not moving sux.

 

you sure do have a lot of rules, Sam.

 

Everyone has a different tolerance level on the comfy-ness.

The top down experience itself would be comfortable for me.

 

I agree...it's not a lazy boy, but I'm rarely uncomfortable...especailly when having fun.
