When did you get it and how much did you pay(if you don't mind)? Any more info on it, like what was done and miles n such?

Also, I've heard a few people who went from s2000 to NSX and went back to the s2000.. Have you driven an S.. Thoughts on both?

I think I bought it back in 06'. It was all stock and I paid 24k for it. I've since added (from front to back)
Cc carbon front lip
Sos short shift stalk w short shift adapter and mugen knob + nsx r boot
Carbing strut brace
Cc headers (taitec knockoff)
Punched cats
Cc gt light exhaust (taitec knockoff)
Rc 250cc injectors
Taitec rear diffuser (dumb people think my bumper is missing)
Buddy club 10k/12k coilovers

In this state its dyno'ed 270hp 210tq and run a best of 13.1 @ 108 @ atco

It gets attention, but not as much as you think. Lot of people think its a camaro (black roof) handling is excellent and she's very well balanced. Only real fault is the american spec five speeds have a crazy long second gear.

Former roomate had an ap2 and we used to swap cars once in a while. Handling is almost as good, little more confidant being an fr vs an mr. Doesn't sound as cool. Nowhere near as fast or as torquey. Engine always felt like it was being held back by something. Maybe flywheel weight, idk. Cool car but I wouldn't swap

Guess I could add that all of mine are 5 speeds too, which surprises most people.

Prior to the Legacy, my daily driver was 1995 Ford Probe SE. Now this is the spare family car.

Our Legacy is also a 5-speed - we had to get the dealership to look all over the northeast for one. What a PITA but we didn't want it in auto! It's really fun to drive

Crazy isn't it.

The Malibu lease expired and I needed a new cheap lease. Wanted the Cruze, but it was 6 months too late. Prolly get a Camaro next year if I can swing it. Maybe I can get the 3500 cash for clunkers pseudo deal for the Trooper. lol Thing is cool as shit though...tuff little SUV. When Japan made full frame tuff trucks with tough suspensions.
