So far... what are the little things you have learned to love about the S2000. Disregarding, speed, handling, etc.... things a prospective buyer might not think about.
Obviously its not the CD player.....
Hmm...excluding the speed, handling, and so on...
Well, I've already come up with some pros and cons..
Pros:
Handling. Sorry, i just have to mention how damn well it handles.
Engine note. Once it hits 6000 RPM the F20 just sings beautifully.
Aftermarket. Tons of high quality parts available for it.
Power top. The top is so easy to use, there's no excuse to not put the top down on a nice day.
RWD. Oh how I have forgotten the joy of power oversteer...
Drivability. The car is a sports car through and through, but it is surprisingly easy to drive on a daily basis.
Cons:
Torque. Down low, the power leaves a little to be desired.
Cargo space. If you are the kind of person that hauls stuff around alot, you'll need to quickly learn the fine art of space management.
Aftermarket. While yes, there's a lot of quality parts available...you gotta pay to play. A decent exhaust is going to run you around $700-$800 new and go up from there.
Stereo. The sound system is of course a huge step down from the MSP. And the placement of the door speakers means if you rest your leg against the inside of the door when driving, the sound seems unbalanced because you're covering the speaker.
Looking at that list, only the torque thing is really a problem in my eyes. And even then, the car defenitely has enough umph to make sure you know it means business.
Also, it's no joke that chicks dig the S. I seriously have gotten so many comments from lady folk, that I lost count. My ex-girlfriend even stopped me the other day to ask for a ride. It's THAT powerful of a chick magnet.
Another thing I've noticed. You notice a lot more of the world around you when you're in a convertable. I never knew what the bottom of a stoplight looked like until now.
