Hey guys. Long time lurker, first time poster
I know this is Club ITR but I know some members here own S2000's. I've went on youtube and checked out S2Ki as well for answers. I have an opportunity to purchase an S2000 but there's still a few things I'm confused about so I'd thought i'd ask some people here what they think about it all.
- For those that own AP1's, would you buy an AP2 if you could do it again provided everything was all okay? (price was within budget, body, colour, etc)
- Is there much of a difference aside from exterior cosmetics, wheels, glass roof from MY02, different style seats and dash cluster when comparing AP1 and AP2? I think the rear subframe on AP2 is different, but anything else? As in, can the changes be noted as a "facelift" more than anything? AFAIK, the AP1 and AP2 are still the F20C and not the F22C that the US got with their AP2's?
- If we have an AP1 and AP2 for sale, both travelled same amount of kms, both stock and both well maintained with regular servicing intervals, is the AP2 worth the extra money simply because it's "newer" and a "facelift"?
- How is the S2K as a daily? I know it doesn't have much low down torque and have been told that if you were to short shift, it doesn't feel any different than driving something like an EK Civic for example....
- Have you regretted buying your S2K? If so, why?
- What is it about your S2K that you love?
- What is some things you dislike about the S2K?
- Any major problems in owning one, whether it be maintenance
- What are some things to look out for when buying one second hand from your experience?
Sorry for the long first post guys. I'll intro myself properly in the newbies section soon
CHeers and thanks in advance!
