pic at last

Joined back in April right after picking this beauty up. Bet you didn't know you could get these at Walmart.
Sorry so long for the pic my father fell in April when I was trying to close the deal. It almost didn't happen, there's more on that. I have been taking care of Dad, during recovery and having a blast driving this car.
I found this new 2008 at a dealer in GA that was in a hurry to unload it. They had it listed at a price that was lower than many of the used cars I had looking at. I called to inquire on the details and they lowered the price more to seal the deal. Picked it up for $26300 it had 50 miles on it.
The other thing that happened was trying to get there. I live in upstate NY the car Milledgeville GA. I couldn't get there with out spending a bunch, so I loaded up the truck and drove down and got it.
Needless to say I am very happy with the car, it's amazing!
Love this forum have been doing more reading than posting.

Hey that's MY car! Looking very nice of course...you picked the right color.

Does that thing still have the suspension risers in it? The wheel wells look a little big, especially up front. Maybe it's just my eyes playing tricks on me.

Well good luck with it...but I don't think you're gonna get much more top-down time in this weather

Hope your Pop is better. Did you find the secret compartment?

BTW, great deal on the S. Unless you actually did pay 263k for it. Then you got ripped off.

Yeah Ray, they wanted 27300, I got them down another grand.
Joechy, That pic was the next day we(wife went with me) had a 900 mi. ride. One of the salesmen at the dealer said, to spray Pam on the front to protect it from dirt and bugs. It worked great, but you need bug remover to get the pam off.
The car has about 4800 miles on it now. We had a really bad summer up here.
Thanks guys
Bill

Congrats on the new car. Sounds like you made a great deal on it.

I know for a FACT that the last year of production of the S2000 is 2003!!!!!
After that, it will be the S2200 under an assumed name.

Thanks all.
This is a great group, I've learned a lot reading the different post.
It will be a real shame to have to store the S for the winter.
