[ThisIs50.com]

[kc1337]

Is that an Ap1 or AP2, wonder if anyone is going to do a rebuild on that car and sell it at some shady dealership.

[shenmecar]

wow that was a nice car before whatever happened happened. =(

[the_darkside]

Rumor has it, Dickson was an AJ employee at the time. Ben (Owner) told him he doesn't need to buy storage insurance and he can park at the shop. At that time, there was a break in and the crooks drove right in the garage door. His car was f-ed and Ben wasn't willing to pay out of his garage policy after.

[Bender Unit]

if that's true
cheap out $30 per month for storage insurance
can't blame anyone

[buddy]

no f-ing way .. ouch!

[TypeRNammer]

i could sure use that virgin del sol trunk in the background!

drive through a garage door maybe 10km max? = total loss? for a $40k car
unbelievable

[Gtrr33]

That's shaddy

[Shun Izaki]

LOL... who wants T1R coilovers anyways? not I dear sir....

But that being said... sad day to see an s2k get scrapped :(

[Synapz]

True story. Ben is sucks and t1r blows

Rumor also has it that someone was slipping money under the table, and got caught.

[Gtrr33]

2 years ago a staff member at ajr offered me half the price as long as I buy more that $10,000 retail. Not going to details but some shaddy shit going down. Now I know how some of these kids afford those crap. And I wonder if the owner "ben" knows about it.

[Feint*]

So many haters in this thread. If you can manage to outsource crummy decade old design and rebrand it because you know 90% of the car fans out there are cheap and retarded - you should make boatloads of money from crummy coilovers copied from Teins but spraypainted a different color.

Let's be realistic here, CRA won't be knocking on AJR's doors anytime about their cash sales. May as well bust all the nearby sushi restaurant first, ROFL

Nice S2K, sucks to see it in scraps.

[RabidRat]

top looks to be in good condition, wonder why they didn't part that out

[!Aznboi128]

damn such a nice car

x2. Sell what people will buy. Simple.

[vo_hantu]

=*( such a beauty!

[FatalCloud]

what happened to the black s2k at espot? i'm interested to hear about that...it was vandalized/burned??

[maxxxboost]

Interesting, seems like there is more behind this story.

[ericthehalfbee]

There is real judgement problem there too to park a car in a commercial garage without insurance...

like....wat?Lots of our customers leave cars with us that don't have insurance. Pretty hard to insure a car that doesn't exist yet (like a restoration of a classic that isn't even in one piece yet). One customer dropped off a car that was literally a bunch of boxes of parts.

Our garage policy covers these vehicles. In 4 years I only remember one claim being made, and it was a doozy. $100K+ fully custom hot rod had a sticky throttle and was driven into the back of another car. Expensive repair bill (about $20K) and we used our policy to pay for it.

As far as I'm concerned, any shop with the sign up "not responsible for damages" is not worth dealing with. Or perhaps there's a reason they won't cover damages (like not having/unable to get proper insurance).

If you don't have a bunch of yahoos working for you, then accidents are very rare, and therefore, claims are rare too.

[Mashimaro]

lol, i don't know who would want to pick up those $1600+ Taiwanese made coilovers ;)

but yes, poor S2K nonetheless.

ps - i thought Dixon's S2K is sitting behind G5 on cinder blocks?

[Bender Unit]

Dickson...Dixon...?

[Mashimaro]

Dickson...Dixon...?

yah that dood, sorry, didn't care much for the spelling.

[viper11885]

Sad to see such a nice car in that condition.

you're rite i totally forgot but yes, let's keep that story out of it. :)

[Hondaracer]

arent all those A&J S2K's just stock with some suspension mods and stickers?

[razy]

yes...that's why ben's s2k AND fit won the super street time attack 1st place for its class right? :rolleyes:
and if t1r is as crappy as you guys make it sound, then it must NOT be functional, but then how can they shave off laptime using t1r?? omGAWD!!?

out of curiousity, who was driving those cars anyways?

[razy]

robert walker, and he can fucking drive

[Mashimaro]

robert walker, and he can fucking drive

no doubt about that!

however, to clarify, here it is from the horse's mouth as they say (back in 2006 btw):

"AJ-Racing S2000 in 2nd place in the “Limited” FR class which requires street registration vehicle with DOT approved tires of 100 UTQ or more. AJ-Racing S2000, running on Nitto NT01 tires had the 18th fastest time of the day (overall) at 1:56.773 which was an improvement of over two seconds from last year. This lap time also makes AJ-Racing S2000 the fastest street registered S2000 to ever lap around Buttonwillow Raceway."

Hater. Just because you don't know don't assume.

It's called markups. Obviously, if you spend a significant amount of money, anyone would be willing to cut you a much better deal. Hell you can talk to a manager at a retail store to give you a deal for buying a large quantity of merchandise ie: christmas gift baskets.

[cococly]

so, some ppl broke into the garage and took away all the expensive parts off that S2000?
