Default I got a new S2000!!!! Drop top, y0!

Well, I finally did it guys. I got rid of my Turbo Integra and finally got what I wanted. Namely a nice looking, reasonably fast, stock car.

I didn't like the idea of having a 4 cylinder still, but I was pleasantly surprised with the power it had.

You guys might not see me around too much anymore on HT. I'll still try to help out the Tech and Integra forum, and PW a bit on Members...ahem, General discussion.

Well, here are the pics.

My old car. The turbo beast that never ran right. Never got that engine management that I wanted. There was so much potential in that car. Oh well.


Here is the saddest picture of them all. The spot where my baby bled every night.


But I decided to fill that void in my heart.....with.....

THIS!!!!!


DROP TOP, y0!!!


I started looking at http://www.s2ki.com and saw the infinite amount of aftermarket parts for the S2000. I'm almost scared to sign up and be a n00b there. So I'm trying to be smart and read up first, then post.

There's so much stuff I want.....lip, rims, stereo, supercharger.....gosh.

EDIT: I forgot to mention in my excitement. It's a 2001 Silverstone on black with just under 20K miles. (I know, it's used ), but I'm a broke college student, and I still can barely afford payments. I'm not gonna say how much it came out to be, cuz I'm sure lots of you will say how much I got ripped off. Bottom line is, I'm happy with the car and I love it.

Wow, I can't wait for the weather to warm up. The top is never gonna be up! This summer is gonna be great. Hmm....RWD goodness.

i was going to say..s2ki is pretty cool. it's also funny if you go to the local forums. drive down the street, and someone will most likely post (silverstone '01 s2k w/temp plates..etc..etc...).
they caught me pretty fast last year when I started driving an '01. (and like the guy posted above....they don't bring out the flame-torch as fast as h-t)
enjoy the car..it's a great ride.

Of course I got the pics up. I gotta compete against your ugly S2000!

Mods you ask? Ha! Unless you feel like donating some money to me, I don't think I'll be able to afford anything for at least a few months. I didn't expect to pay so much for my car, so I have nothing left.

like BM is a reliable source of information.

Seriously, Silver Spoon. Why not just blatantly post under the same name. We know it's you. No use hiding it. You've been banned already, doesn't that tell you something?

BTW-
Good luck with the car. Hope you enjoy it.

Corngrats Sham00!

Glad you've joined the club! I had my "st00k" for almost a year now and I love it!
I'm on http://www.s2ki.com under the same name, but H/T is my home. Those guys know everything there is to know about the S.

Nice man. Seems like everyone is making the move from a boosted gsr to an S2.
I just sold my Supercharged gsr for a 2003 Silverstone two weeks ago. The break-in is killing me. I only have 500 miles and haven't taken it past 4K rpm yet. Good luck with the new car. They're defiantly a fun toy.

Thanks dude. Your car is beautiful. I see your posts on s2ki, but I haven't registered yet.

I don't think they're taking hotmail accounts anymore for registration. Oh well.
