This past weekend I sold my '05 S2000. I bought it new and put about 50k miles on it. It was babied (looks and drives like new) so I got top dollar for it (above retail value), hence why I sold it. It was a good deal for the buyer too because it still had warranty and was never modified. Not a single accident either.

Now a few days later I find myself filled with regret. I love my Z so don't get me wrong, but I miss the S a lot. I ride sport bikes but only on weekends. The S was like riding a sportbike during the week. Truly an amazing experience!

So now I'm hunting for a used S2000. My budget is fairly low because I want to build more of a track car with it this time but there will be one sitting in my garage again soon.

I'll have my Z for a long time, but I'll probably always have an S.
I'm kinda on the exact same boat.

I never owned S2k but every single time I saw a White S2k, part of wanted that car badly. One of my friend (a previous supermod here) had a White s2000. I drove that thing here and there when I had my 350Z. It's basically a street legal kart. It handled like a kart. It was a lot of fun driving. Yes it was basically a Civic pre 4000 rpm but from 6000 to 9000, it screamed! If I somehow get a hold of a nice taken care of white S2000 (like the one you sold 11thumper ) , I don't think I'll let it go . I def get it. . I am hoping that Honda will bring back a similar car soon. I think they killed s2k in 2008. So, 3-5 year R&D and maybe something new in 2013 or 2014? who knows
