    Smile WANTING TO BUY A S2k!!!

    hey everyone this is my first time posting.. im currently im a dilemma dunno wheather to get a S2k or not i really want one, ive asked some ppl who own one and 80% of them told me not to get one, and why does it seem like everyone who gets one ,gets rid of it after a couple of months..

    what i really need to know is all of ur opinions, the cons about this car and any other useful tips/facts..

    cheers!!

    I had mine for 6 months now i believe.

    I have 01 model but only done 47,000kms when i got it. Condition was great, it looks as if hasn't been taken out much, my plastic rear window was still crystal clear with the exception of a crease...

    Really depends on previous owners and condition. If $ ain't a problem, buy a 2004+ AP2 facelifted versions.

    I have noise problem with roof but swapped the strikers around, solved the problem temporary but can buy new one easily for about 50-100buks (i believe?)

    everything else is still perfect for me... except clutch noise (only bothers a handful of people - not me) - or maybe haven't done enough K's yet.


    But it's just little things that may build up and cost u a lot at the end (if ur a P plater - big problem)... otherwise it drives GREAT.... dont know about your friends who owns one and doesn't recommend it... but i certainly do recommend it!

    people wont see you fly in a s2k thats forsure they are slow.
    most of the time people will sell them because its only a 2 seater with a tiny boot.

    yes s2ks are slow, but torque wise they go hard =P

    probably within the A Class that honda has to offer.

    but yeah dude, you'll get over it when u buy it the 1st month will be the best.

    sold mine cos i kinda got over it. it was a bit of a "been there done that" kinda thing

    but everyones different. i believe auss2000 bought his brand new in 99 and still has it today

    another reason was that there were too many sick kients with them now. kinda ruined the image. at the beginning when i got mine it was like "oh wow. s2k how sexy"

    now its like "oh s2k. does it have 20" chromes on it like every hectic kient on the road?"

    got put into the hoon catagory and it didnt suit me.

    Yea, too many people getting s2k's now its becoming the new P plater car. I had my s2k for about 1 month on my P's hehe :P
    But yeap, alot of people without taste are getting them, s2k attracts the wrong kind of attention in aust.

    Haha i'm talking about in terms of money... but i guess any p-plater who has a S2k is loaded with cash? I dunno... i def can't afford 1 when i was a P-Plater even if the value was around $30-40k back in 2001...

    I'm just middle-class citizen, did my studies, did my uni, got a job, got my toy

    Sorry off topic...
