Well, I was born in Switzerland, so I now.
Plus, it's because of how NOT curvy any roads are here...

G-D I want one. How tall/big are you? I'm 6'3" 225lb. Would I even fit?.. Into the S2K that is, not you, just in case there was any misunderstanding.

It would be a tight fit

But really, if you want an S2000 THAT badly ... you can order and install modified rails for OEM seats.

There are larger people who drive these cars ... just takes a little acceptance of slight claustrophobia.

On a separate note (in hopes of further swaying you), the S2000 is really as special as everyone says it is.

Every time I get in and take a drive, it reminds me why I will never sell it. I have 163k .. still going strong

I sat in an S2k for the first time yesterday... it was snug. I'm 6"2 245. My legs were fine.

Gained a whole new appreciation just being around them more.

J is your car's yellow the same paint code as the AP1's yellow?

No sir, I have Rio yellow, AP1 is spa...
I think the car is a perfect fit, no wasted space.
I am in love with it.

Your legs will fit just fine. If your upper body hits the roof, there's a button that fixes that issue as well.

S2000 is a whole different experience from anything on the road today, I can't believe I even thought about selling it at one point. I'd say the only that even comes remotely close is a Z3M but that comes with the reliability of a broke crack addict.

6'3" 230. It can be uncomfortable for long distance trips but the fun factor trumps that.

As sad as it sounds, my most favorite thing about your car is how well the license plate suits the Rio yellow. Seriously, it's like a match made in heaven- something you rarely see on a car.

LMAO...still keeping her in good shape for you, Jason...
you know you're in my top 3 to call when the time comes...
it would actually make me happy to know it's getting pounded on at the dragon by someone that would appreciate it.
I just put a coat of wolfgang on it...wagon getting a coat next.

You really still wish you had bought the white one over the black one instead of saving a little money?
