Hello. I'm going to need ya'alls help here with the S2000.

I test drove one today. Needless to say, I am madly in love with the
S2000. Honestly, every S2000 should already have the deck lid spoiler
as stock since it seriously improves the look.

The thing that I need help with is that the only problem is that I'm
poor. I'm not dirt poor and disadvantaged in any way physically but
I'm not exactly a CEO. No I'm not asking for money ;-)

I need help with deciding if I can afford this car or not. I want an
S2000 plus 2 motorcycles. Right now I already have a car that I am
borrowing.

Here's my financial situation.

US Air Force service-member. I get paid somewhere over $1,500 monthly.
Rent, Food, Health, Dental, and Retirement, are already included. So
the monthly checks aren't needed for the bare essentials, I can use it
as I wish.

The S2000 is a $34,000 car new. For that price its still a bargain
considering that the car is a rocket and that only 5,000 are sold in
the states annually.

Obviously this car retains it's value pretty well considering. But
still, I should consider buying used. I haven't checked the used
market for such a car so I don't know what it's all about. Is there
any reason why I shouldn't buy used? I'm going to get a carfax report
and have the car checked out for sure.

What is the insurance going to be like?

Honda is one of the makers that don't give extra incentives to Veterans
or anyone in Active-Duty.

Again, I'm in love with this car. I want one in metallic blue. When I
sat in the car it fit me perfectly like a glove. Almost as if we were
ment to be. The seat is perfect, it cradles my body type just right.
I've never sat in any other car that fit me better than an S2000. The
car felt very comfortable.

I love the instrument cluster. And I also love the start button. Just
put the key in, press down on the clutch and push. Every car should
start like that since the system will save a lot of starters from
needless wear when someone tries to start a car that is already
running. It's fool proof.

And to think that such a car with just a 4 cylinder without turbo can
perform like a much larger V8. It's just amazing what VETEC and modern
technology can do.

The car has the Honda badge to back it up with gauranteed reliability
so I shouldn't have to worry about that aspect of the car.


TIA
