I think you are definitely going in the right direction. My s2k is my daily beater, and I couldn't be more happy. I had 1 civic, and then I went through 2 preludes, and ended up here. Its fun, but still practical. There are some things that would take some getting used to though... From having a Prelude, I had no usable back seat, so going to a 2 seater is not that big a deal for me. If you like lugging stuff around with you- you better get used to rentals or asking a friend with a truck to help you out. But really- how many times do u need to move a sofa? lol.
Its cool having a real limited production/import car. So many imports are actually built in the US nowadays.
But the #1 thing you need to do is take one for a real test drive. For some- this is the straw tha tbreaks the camel's back. Alot of people think it looks great or sounds good on paper, but when they drive it, they hate it. Some say it's too peaky, or high strung. I would have to say I disagree with someone who said its smooth, IMO its not. If you can deal with a super hyper car, go for it. I love mine... but wait.... don't get it...I like being exclusive....
