I was a honda kid growing up and the last honda I had was an '08 AP2 in 2011, but had it only for about 3 weeks before changing directions to an '07 350Z. The s2k felt similar to my '07 Si in terms of power and wasn't impressed at all by it, and hated having virtually no torque and always had to get the car in the higher range RPM's to feel any amount of power.

I don't understand why people don't own up to their mistakes and typically passes the buck onto someone else, even if they are clearly in the fault. And this why I hate going to Walmart - seems like the trashiest bottom feeders of the world congregate there, like the couple you mentioned. Props to you for standing your ground.

On a side note, I could imagine if EW was there, he would intervene and be like "peace and love itches! be nice! I 'ont like this at all duudes! why you so mad duude?" and then giving the "

" face once he was flipped off by the couple.

Yea, Walmart brings the best (WORST) out of people. You can go there for your daily entertainment.

Just google Walmartians. They're another species of sub humanoids.

I had an AP1 and loved it, bought it, it only had 16k miles on it.. and honestly, i still think it was one of the best cars I've ever owned, i thought it was fun to drive, loved having the top down, it was super easy to work on.. it was actually hard handing over the keys to the infiniti dealer.

The s2k has its perks, but it just wasn't my cup of tea. Probably one of the worst financial decisions I have made, as I was heavily upside down at the time of trading and carried over to my 350Z and took me a while before I was even, but I just wasn't happy with it. The tipping point for me was when multiple random people kept saying "Nice miata!".

Take your pick lol. Doing a random search on cars.com and autotrader, there's quite a few out there.

EDIT: Honda's sure do hold their values, and there is an '01 with 38k miles and going for $19k. I just can't justify spending that much on a 20-year old car. The banks won't even typically finance anything that's over 10 years old.

i never got that, thank goodness.

to each their own, i guess.. the only reason I had to get rid of it is because i was in michigan, and I had that and my Z, and michigan snows a ton, I wouldnt have been able to get around in my s2000, so I had to trade it in for my QX.

Yeah, you would like that POS. No Thanks....

LMAO I just saw the tag and I made it in there. And damn right I'm a TP hoarder. Aside from COVID-19, I'm also prepping for FL hurricane season, which is right around the corner.
