P.S. An automagic? In this car, it's not a penalty. When you mod the engine (and you will), it'll be easier to deliver the power to the rear wheels. I'm not even bothering for my manual V wagon.
Good move on keeping the S2000. Now you have two of the coolest cars on the planet.
So here's what I do during the summer: One week drive the V wagon all week.....then the next week, drive the NSX all week. That way, both cars get mileage.
Love this wagon, and I expect to see a number of things done to it that you didn't plan to do to it, like some Stage 2 type stuff........look it up, it's a thing.
I haven't read any other posts in the thread yet, so please forgive my surprise.

Congrats again!
Thanks Bob!!! I've been watching a lot of your vids on the tube of yous!
Yeah man, super excited about it. I do love it...yesterday on the way home from picking up my 8 month old daughter...she held my finger while I drove and I thought...for a daily, fk the damn manual transmission...this is awesome
But I agree...S2000 is DRASTICALLY different than the V (in comparison to the TL to S2000 driving comparison) and so far, I'm extremely happy with what an amazing machine it is.
I work in a yard with a bunch of union guys that have not said a word to me in the 7 years I've been in this building...today, for the first time like 5 of them came up to me to ask me questions about it and what it was and what it does. Damn car makes friends for you...that's crazy.
I joked with my wife over the weekend about how when I'd go somewhere with the TL, I'd get a lot of 19-30 year old guys that would say nice car...now it'll be like 19-80 year olds

I have stock boring pedals (gripppy), and leather steering wheel.
I think the leather steering wheel is a plus.
I love you...

I'll just leave this here as 'motivation'.......
Thanks man!
Hey hey hey...motivation for me to get divorced and end up sleeping on your couch!
Oh and mystery solved...
wonder why I ended up with some roof damage.
Seller is working on beating up the shipping company to make them pay for the repair.
It's honestly not horrendous, just a couple of contact points...but it'll affect resale and they did it and they should fix it, especially on a pretty high end vehicle.
and who in the flying fuckedy fux thought this was a good ide?
WTF! were they thinking. What a dumb idea. The driver should be fired for that shit and they better pay to have it fixed.
Nice pictures. That second shot looks really good.
I don't think you will be keeping that up at all. By the way you need gas since one full throttle pull and it will suck everything left out of the tank
WHOA WHOA WHOA. wtf J!? I thought we were twinsies? Were you getting jealous? lol jk man. Congrat u fucking lations dawg! I can't say I saw this coming but also can't say that I'm surprised. Its a good move.
Unfortunately not...
honestly, need to get a full on quote from reputable shop.
It's on the roof channel frame rail supports, not the flat part of the roof.
Jeff, thank you! We're still twins for now!!! Don't feel poor...I just got a good deal and it's kinda like when you buy xxr's then pay a bit more for a better wheel and then again for a better wheel. Eventually you end up with the Volks. I've been lucky enough to have purchased the yellow...then the blue...sell the black and pay off blue...so it's not a big financial hit all at once. Well, it is...but I can rectify that will the sale of the car for now...
that and a bit of dumb luck. Plus...I'm old now...I always thought how the heck can someone buy this or that when I was 20....now I get it...you stick with a company you do okay...401K and the like...trust me, you'll see. You're further ahead than I was fresh out of college IMO. Plus, I don't have new airbags to play with
Jason, I already demanded they publicly behead the driver and post on youtube or I will not be satisfied.
About the gas...it's like 48 to empty...then "low"...like, bish what you mean low?!? DO I NEED TO STOP?
LOL...gas hasn't been a financial factor for me in a while...looking like about $10 more bucks to fill up than the TL and probably will need a fill every week instead of every 2.
I discovered a very tiny dent on a similar area on my car when I got it. It's so small that I completely forgot about it until recently. I hope yours isn't too bad
...I just ordered 2 sets of those crazy bright led boards because in taking some pics I could tell the ones I used make some hot spots of light on the plate. Fuck it...for me and Betty. Thanks a bunch Jason...I'll send you my paypal invoice for all the money you make me spend.
I am not paying that bill but will be happy to help you find even more things to spend money on. I have had many wives of friends tell me they are not happy about me being friends with their husbands cause I help them find way to many car things to spend money on.

Sounds about right for the frequency of filling up. Pretty much get about 250 miles out of a tank max. Maybe 300 on an all highway tank.

It says low fuel without a range because that range can be 50 miles or it can be 5 miles.. ask me how I know.
The V has a tiny fuel can.. it's like giving a baby bottle to Jabba the Hutt

I scared myself the other day driving it and seeing how long I could push it. I put 16.2 gallons in the 17 gallon tank. That is the closest I have ever gotten. I assume then you have run out.

I had the same issue with my E60 M5. Thirsty V10 and small gas tank. But, did I care? Nope. Loved the power too much.
well this morning I had the good sense to say eff it, I guess it doesn't have an actual yellow light tell you're about to get stranded. Put in 15.9 gallons.
I still haven't taken traction OR stabil off yet...just pushed the selector into sport transmission mode and zoom zoom. LOL...I want these damn michelin's to last a bit!
Damn that black wagon has me wishing I'd have just ordered whatever that splitter is over the oem one! Super nice!
well, when i pushed the selector over to manual mode, it says "transmission in sport mode" and when I punched 1st it lit the tires up GOOD before traction Cuntroll say NAWWWW

Sell new two and keep Vagon
Can't sell the new vehicles... need them for racing. Plus the toy hauler is honestly sooooo awesome! Can't believe I camnped any other way before
But the wife's new car will have to fill the void for now... then I see myself either scooping up a coupe down the road... or if I want to spend a little less, and Elise or even less... S2000. Have to get the new business off the ground first, then I can look into those options

FYI, I have hit a wet patch on the road and gotten it sideways WITH traction control on. So yeah, be careful until you're used to it
When I'm out for a drive, everything goes off. It's fucking glorious..
Commuting, rain, etc.. every ninny is on.
Like JB said, I had some fuck cut me off going 45 mph in the wet.. I had to tap the brakes..
I oscillated a good +100 ft before she got compliant, just stayed off the gas and did little inputs until she settled.
