Hey Jamesbe, I was curious how much you pay per month to own such an incredible ride? -and how much down initially?
No worries if you'd rather not answer. |

Hey Jamesbe; Top Gear Just rated your S2000 at #1 car for 2004 - 94% http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/survey/top_10.shtml Then I looked at Buy this car again? Wow guess what! Top 10 who said 'Yes, I'd buy this car again!' Jaguar XJ (100%) Honda S2000 (99%) http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/survey/buy_again.shtml Just thought you may want to know. I guess to this will be great info for all of you who are getting read to go to the US & buy one  Make mine Black & Black.. Cheers! |

I gave the guy like $2k and buyout is $25k. Buyout is close to what retail is, it's a little bit lower even. That's why I'm thinking of buying and flipping it.
But now my bumper is cracked so it's no longer mint, which will make it more difficult to offload. My hardtop is worth $5000 as well which is a huge chunk of change. |

Red seats would look nicer and I agree I don't like the wing. That's the new 04 spoiler I like the lip spoiler I have.
2.2L supercharge, probably putting down 300whp if not more. |

Agree with you both I prefer the spoiler on your S2000 Jamsbe.
Yes Red seats would have been much better...
300HP Oh YEEEEES!
I also really like them wheels & Brakes |

Jamesbe; Check out this video http://nikita.hro.nl/downloads/movies/nsx-s2000-ctr/s2000.mpeg S2000 gets up to 281km before it starts to slow it down... Great clip, comes with audio so you get to listen to the wind noise overtaking the sound of the engine... Also for anyone who has not seen the digital rpm meter very nice as the speed increases... Wow who ever driving really likes to red line it allot.. |

Yeah... but what would his topspeed have been if he was travelling on a flat surface instead of downhill. 175mph can't be safe in a car designed to top out at... what about 155-160? |

Ummm.... technically leasing does not mean you own the car. It doesn't belong to you Jamesbe.  now that u're leasing it and paying monthly payments for a car that's really a rental, wouldn't it not make better sense to make use of it rather than having it sit in a garage during winter? I mean u're basically paying a company for a car that's not yours and letting it sit in a garage? You must really like the leasing company eh? (Message edited by ghost on November 26, 2004) |
