My advice is to establish a dedicated $5k war chest for major repairs. Let it sit and grow in the Bank until and if needed. Withdraw the earnings annually to help offset minor repairs and maintenance.
Today's earnings on 5k are more like offsetting one oil change, but, hey, that covers 10k miles and look at the fun you'll have in 10k in your Box.
Go for an S and forget the Honda. That 3.2 S motor will pull an S2000 right out it's own ass.
Besides, you wanna be a ricer? You could get one of those tomato can mufflers......
