Why do you think so?

Interesting comment...............here is just one of a pretty good thread to read and keep up on if you are questioning power gains and mods.

A lot of people, in my experiences w/selling electronics & experience w/friends researching their cars, don't do enough background research & compare enough things. A lot of people seem to impulse buy, w/o shopping around for the best deal. These people would have buyers remorse.

Thankfully, some of us aren't interested in owning a dyno queen.

I love the car and have no regrets about getting it, I wish I didn't have to trade in the S2000 to get it, but I am happy with the performance and looks of the car. My only complaint is the interior is pretty cheap looking (wasn't a major concern of mine though )

The only second thoughts for me would have been to ditch the factory Aero kit and get Navi instead.

I'm glad I did that the first time around

My one regret was not waiting 2 or 3 more months and getting the 0% financing.

Oh well, what's a couple hundred bucks for a few more smiles!

From time to time I wish i had a roadster like an s2k, but overall I'm really happy with the car and if I got an s2k, I'm sure I would be itching even more so for an Evo.

I guess I could've waited a month and get 0% financing which would've been a sweet deal than 1.9%.

Why is this in the show & shine section?

my only regret would be not trying harder to find an SSS WW X without the aero kit and the stock navi instead. Don't get me wrong the aero kit is nice, but I would rather spend that same money on the stock navi.


This is a very small complaint though.

Only second thought, shouldn't have paid so much.....could've waited and got the car cheaper -would've had to travel (without a car - kinda hard) to shop around, but with the money I could've saved (and used on upgrades) I'd be further along in my tuning process....i.e. FP red, some Jun Cams and the like.......all in all its an awesome car. Oh I had, mine for about a year almost......this April.
