Welcome to the board!

I've driven the S2000, but I've never been impressed by it and I just couldn't appreciate it very much. Perhaps I'm missing the "it" factor and may be some one can point it out for me. It sure does handle well, but for me personally, that's as far as it gets (simply expressing my experience).

Also, one major thing that really does not make sense for me is its price (new or used). Sheesh!!

<---- Another former s2k owner. 06 gpw black on black. The best thing I miss about it is the handling and that awesome precise shifter.

Welcome to the forums. I have never owned S2000 but I really like that car. It's precise handling and amazingly short (OEM) shifting gearbox tempted me to buy the car. I did drive it once and I personally think even the 09 370Z shift knob isn't as short or precise as the S2000 one.
