[KRZTACO]

I wanted to see if I was missing anything...................so I test drove a 2004 S2000 with 30,000 miles on it.

While sitting down in the car, noticing all the controls and digital tach, it reminded me of my mom's Accord, a pretty far stretch to the claimed "track ready sport car". Fit and finish was very dissappointing, and not far off from the Civic's of yester-year. You definitely feel you paid $30,000 for a $12,000 civic interior. From the door sills, to the rubber around the windshield it felt and looked cheap.

I 've heard the shifter and motor are awesome, however on the test drive here's what I noticed:

--NO 2nd gear chirp, in fact the clutch kept slipping to catch the drive train up to the motor.
--you only have 2,000 RPM from 7,000-9,000 to get ANY power out of the thing, COMPLETELY useless which inclueded getting on a long decreasing radius turn to the freeway.
--Shifter was VERY easy to shift, however felt very long, and disconnected to the motor.
--Clutch was featherly light, good in my mind.

Just my thoughts....... and was VERY happy to drive home in my Boxster S
