Sold my EP3 last week and collected this AP2 yesterday! Always wanted one! :WOOT

It's completely standard with the added extra which is the headrest speakers which are great! And much needed with the roof down!

Not really comparable tbf, feels completely different to the ep3! Seems to hold the road better, sharper steering better low down torque and with the roof down and the sun out its :cool: although the rains put a halt to that at the mo! :bad-words: and I'm not brave enough to take it out in this dam weather just yet!! :lol:

haha same curiousity also. If I could fit i'd own one tomorrow, but I know for a fact I won't be able to. I couldn't fit in a 350Z so S2000 looks slim chance.

Very nice car mate, have to let us know how it compares to the EP.

I'm 6ft and its a perfect fit for me, thankyou yh I haven't seen many s2k's in this colour! No plans as yet, need to sort out alignment, standard exhaust system sounds good so may just look into a good air intake. Nothing much just enjoying it for what it is :-D saving for a house deposit so available funds for modding are scarce! :lol:

Haha quality!! Thanks mate, yh will do haven't driven it enough to know what it's truly like but first thoughts, like I said above, are that it feels totally different to the EP.

Very nice S2000.
Really like these car's and if I was ever in the market for a convertible I think it would be one of these. :cooldude:

You don't want to be too much over 6ft however, mines on the last latch back on the drivers seat.

Need to take it out in the rain mate! Only way you'll learn! Ignoring will leave you shocked and in difficulty when it does go!

Also note pointless extra 700rpm to red line, does nothing beyond 8200rpm

Also in answer to mid life crisis.

There are worse things. Anything mx5 newer than a mk1. Think the 350z conv is pretty gay imo also, coupe all the way

No you're right there, only for one more latch left hopefully I'm fully grown now! :lol:

Yh I will defo take it out in the rain soon, new rear tyres first though! Haha.

Haven't really noticed the lack of power at the end of the rev range yet but haven't driven it "properly" yet!

Is your s2k modded? Don't suppose you've ever had a leak under the bottom corners of the rear window have you!?
