My phone has a tendency to auto-wrong words from time to time.

corrected:

The MSRP for a New S2K wasn't nearly 40K if I remember correctly...

Honda was selling them for ~ 32-34K I believe which was a steal all things considered. A nice low mileage CPO S2K can be had for under 25K now which is really a steal.

You'd have to spend A LOT more to get a comparable drivers car with the exception being the MX-5.

But yeah I think an effort should be made in educating people what makes a good drivers car.

As mentioned there is far too much emphasis on HP / test track #'s. Many of the funnest cars to drive are not amongst the quickest.

Your phone does that because "funnest" is not a word



Back on topic: Steve, post pics when you get it done I would like to see this!

But the S2k is not a fun car, at all. It's a very serious car. Ergo, S2000, as in Serious 2000. Duh.

50% sides and 30% rear. 50% is the legal limit in VA for the side windows and I've been pulled over before for 35% so I decided to keep it legal.

Kind of a wacky day. Tint shop was way behind and they took FOREVER on GM_Traitor3.5's Maxima. So we did what any responsible adults would do to pass the time and played on the rail road tracks.





Back to tint news, the state House passed a bill to change the legal tint limit to 35% this month. It needs to pass the Senate yet. If it does, the 5.0 is going in to get 35% on the side windows again and I'll probably have the S redone. Will do the Benz while I'm at it. Fingers crossed.
