PICS: my S2000 (not small-bandwidth friendly)

Hey All...I guess you can call me an oldie on this forum. I used to be a big contributor...once even an moderator (of the food kind). Well, since I sold the CL-S I pretty much didn't have time to bounce around here.

My old baby:



The last couple of times I was here I've seen some S2000 interest posts. Here's my contribution, for those that are still on the fence...



I've had my car since October 2004. I love every minute of it. Even when I had it parked in the garage most of the winter. Summer is finally here in the Pacific NW, and I just got her cleaned up.






Spaco Roadsters...mostly for the bling factor...and oh so comfortable.


What's up guys...it's my blue tinted convex mirror. I was disappointed Honda didn't have the blue tint from my old CL-S.


Light as a feather...


of course made in Japan...


CE-28's...soooo hawt


sorry for the off tilt picture. My latest edition...carbon fiber cooling plate


1x1 weave...my favorite type.




My hard top in storage for the summer


My sister recently moved home. I came back from work one day to find her bear sitting on my spare seat. Looked pretty funny.


sexiest ass...what chu got now J-Lo


LEVEL optics...convex mirror.




another of the sparco

You have to remove the OEM glass out of the housing and replace with the new one. However, the manufacture does include some double sided tape if you feel like just slapping it on top of the original glass. I think replacing it completely looks cleaner.

Looks great! I am in the market for an 05-06 S2k right now myself and have a few questions. First, is that silverstone or sebring silver? With out the two of them together its hard to tell. Where did you get your wheels? Did you stay with factory size?

My car is the Silverstone. It's the darker of the two. The Sebring looks nearly the same as the CL-S silver. It's much lighter if you see the two together.

In my personal opinion, the Silverstone looks more classy.

The wheels are 17's...but they are much wider than the 05-06 OEM 17's.

Gotta throw another Sparco in there to balance things out. Looks good though, and I like the CF rad cover.

What size did you end up going with? the factory rears are pretty wide already!

The S-03's are 255's in the rear. I don't remember how wide the wheels are. But I assume they are wider than the OEMs to accomodate the wider width tire.

I think the OEM RE050's are 245's.

If you do a search for "lousy pics" you should be able to find pics of my 2005 Sebring Silver S2k. Awesome, fun car. 245/40/17 in the rear from the factory.

I also got the two-tone interior.

Great pictures.

I would never buy one (not my type of car) but they always catch my eye on the road.

cause I don't want to put the passenger through sitting on a semi-racing seat. It's pretty snug for me. And I know if I have to take a lady friend, she would be complaining about how tight the bolsters are.
