See that bulge on the right? That's for the spare tire - if you take out the spare tire and leave that panel off, suddenly you gain a lot more space. I put all my groceries in there. =)

Also, if you look at the bottom of that picture, that's where your emergency toolkit goes. Take that out and you get a bunch more space too.

And finally if you really need the space, you gain a LOT by taking out the trunk lining. I almost fit my entire snowboard in there; I was maybe two inches off with my 156mm board.

^ That first time it snowed here last year I was actually excited to go to school early in the morning just to be able to use my snow tires. I have the same ones as you and they're awesome in snow.

Good tip on the trunk linings. I haven't tried that one yet!

I've DD an s2k for 3 years, close to 4 now. Few things that may entertain/bother you:

1.) Road noise, wind, or just general noise
2.) 2 Seater
3.) Not much room in the cabin, BUT the trunk has been more than enough for my daily needs
4.) Cheap to maintain, the past 3/4 years i've only had to change the rear wheels bearings on one of the s2k and the clutch. Gas is very comparable to an RSX, so its pretty decent for a sports roadster
5.) Stock s2k is a monster truck, you'll have plenty of ground clearance to commute around town.
6.) Snow shouldn't not even be an issue. Look at this year, it was supposed to snow a lot, and it only snowed hard for about a week or two in total. Either you take the transit or use other methods of transportation during those time periods, and you'll be fine. If you have the money, go for hardtop, if not, softtop will do just fine.
7. Regardless if you get AP1/AP2, its a car you have to finesse, from simple as shifting and how the car handles.

All this talk about the s2000 makes me wanna hop into a 2 seater again. But I'm addicted to the space in my hatchback.

eh just my personal opinion to always have emergency tools/spare tire on the car.

With Japanese cars you don't need them

Heck I took out my spare and all tools In my is after bagging it have not needed it

Heck the spare was still brand new same with all tools after 5 years

+1 but does anyone actually check their spare to make sure it's still road worthy?

My spare has been used once in 9 years, I would rather have BCAA tow me to a tire shop than risk driving on it.

You can fit 2 golf bags in the trunk.

If you need more space, then you shouldn't be looking at a roadster.

I don't think you should worry about the 'snowy days' in your choice. If it's really bad out just take public transit.

You can fit a lot...just need to be creative :D

Here are some funnies, good luck with your purchase.

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm looking to pick one up some time after summer, in Sept or Oct. Crappy thing is now I want to try driving one, but it's kind of hard to find one.

Levitron,go down to the U.S and buy one,they are alot cheaper than the ones locally.

You will save alot of $$$$.

Larry Chu should be able to charm in, in this forum. Try giving him a PM :troll:

:fullofwin:

'07 NFR at Campus Honda in Victoria..., although I just drove by and it appears to have 08 wheels.

That's what I'm leaning towards. I think I end up saving around $1-2g after import duties, taxes, and fees.

I'm currently searching for one stateside, hopefully I will find the right car before summer!!!! Priced out a set of 17x9 RPF1 in SBC finish today :D

If you guys are looking for one, my friend is thinking about selling his 2006 grand prix white (low mileage) with red interior, canadian car.

PM me if you want contact info.

How can you beat that... GPW, red interior, and its a Canadian car too! Perfect s2k.

...only if the price is right ;)

Yeah too bad it's lame shit DBW, soft suspension, low reving AP2.

Who cares if a car is Canadian or American? They are the exact same.

Though GPW on red is a decent combo.

I really encourage you to drive both ap1 and ap2 before you buy.

What colour are you looking for? I really need to go try them out for sure. Just need to find one available for me to do so.

Levitron I'm thinking the same.

Are you going to sell the MS3?

I'd think MS3 + S2K would be best of both worlds for me.

Kev

It takes a week (at most) to get used to the cramped interior, but after that initial shock, nothing else beats it. I'm selling mine now but I have no doubt that I'll be looking for another one in the future.

The dbw isn't even an issue I've driven every year of the s2k and my 06 with dbw and vsa feels just great...wish summer was here so I can take it out of hiatus
