She doesn't know what she is missing!

Plus 1 on that! My 2000 S had 28K miles on it when I bought it 2.5 years ago, was slippery in the round about and the tires look nearly new. Finally decided they must been original because the previous owner only did the IMS and a short shifter and regular maintenance. Went and put full set of Pilot Sports on the car, WOW totally different experience. The old tires had gotten hard with age.
