    Default I bought a CIVIC!................................

    I mean S2000. Always wanted one, found a good deal on one up north. Sold my TSX , had to find something, decided to have a 1/3 life crisis and pick up a convertible.

    Just have to fly out and pick it up this weekend!

    lol @ all the questions about plans for it. Nice daily with A/C and reliability, why bother? Looks nice with the drop and the wheels compliment the color of the car/top. The absolute most I'd do is a lip, but with the high likelyhood of it being busted up right away, understandable to not do that.

    You're on a car enthusiast forum, talking about a Honda. Why is it so unlikely that someone would modify it. For God sakes, you have what a lot of people would consider a classic European car, yet it has been LSx swapped. Talk about the black man calling the kettle a pothead. Or something along those lines...

    I could never have a car and not mod it, it doesnt matter what it is from a sentra to a an aventador.

    Nice pickup though. S2000's are good cars and a good bang for the buck.

    I think the lip is still worth the risk. Looks like you picked up a clean car though, congratulations.

    Aww, I got excited. I saw the MD tag, and thought you lived up here.

    I almost thought that was osnap's old S, but his interior was red.

    Not sure if you were joking about this or not but K24 swaps into s2000s are becoming more and more common. The s2000's gearing doesn't make much of the torque gains around town though. You'll still need to drive the balls out of it to get going anywhere.

    Clean car man, But If you're not goin to do anything to it seems kind of pointless to buy especially when you have to fly to go get it. Just my opinion though.

    Since when do you have to modify a car if you buy it LOL

    I've always wanted to own one, finally found one in good shape with 46k miles! Lightly modded, adult owned.

    Trip up north to get it

    My bad I didn't really explain my point very well, The reason I say i don't see the point is because you said you're going to drive it until you sell it which seems like you don't plan on keeping it long, although would make since to not mod it so never mind my point makes no sense. Lol I guess I'm saying I couldn't buy an s2000 and not do anything to it.
