I've owned my silver O3' S2K for a week now. I fell in love with the s2000 the first time I saw one on the road. I had nearly given up on ever being an owner of one. Finally the planets aligned (I got divorced) and I got one. The driving experience has been amazing thus far. I've taken it to Gattlinburg through the mountains and all over town. I've already put 1k miles on it. I've always owned FC RX7s so the 9k red line was a familiar sensation. My FC is turbo and while it blows the doors off my s2k, the linear torque, power band and handling of the car puts a grin on my face everytime. These cars were designed for car guys. For those of us who enjoy driving to work and us a car as source of stress relief. So, you can imagine my anger when I was backed into in Nashville by this middle aged women in a Hummer H2 tank. My philosophy has always been, "if you can't drive it don't buy it." I was passing behind her and after hearing the crunch I looked out my drivers window to see HUMMER parked into me.She put a nice spare tire crunch in my drivers side quarter panel. Luckily my fuel door still works. The car still runs and drives fine but, it sucks to have damage to such a beautiful peace of machinery. At any rate I'm new to the forum and I'll be posting often to improve my driving experience.

 

*plays violin*. it happens to all of us. its about $1500-$2000 for a reputable body shop to fix a quarter panel. gl.
