Don't search for anything, it hasn't been discussed. Everyone here uses it as their weekend car.

My 2 cars have 4 seats combined.

And for a real answer, I daily mine but I only drive 4 miles each way to work. As long as you're a smaller person (both height and weight) I don't think it's too bad but it definitely isn't the most comfortable car for long distances. I logged 8 hours last weekend in it and wanted to kill someone (mainly my brother for being a bitch about driving his Supra) by the end of it.

OK....We know already that two seat cars attract chicks. We also know that chicks have friends. Bad thing about two seat cars is that if you want to take a new friend out on the town, and she wants to bring a friend for comfort (two chicks, yay!), you can't do it safely....Good Luck

The only thing my s2000 attracts is 18 year old guys.

If youre wanting an s2k for the sole purpose of saving on gas its probably not the best vehicle choice. It doesnt do that bad honestly but if you really want to get one I'd also get a cheap daily to abuse. I daily drive mine for now but eventually Im going to get something to else to take me to work and back.

okay i think im making a good choice of getting a S2k for a daily now it comes down to AP1 or AP2. I heard that the AP1s seat and steering wheel can't be adjusted but its such a bang for the buck though i'm not sure if the AP2s is adjustable though.
