Introduction

I am new to this forum. I recently purchased a 2003 S-2000. It is red and only had 8,900 miles on it. I am 60 years old and this is my first sports car. In the last year I have driven many S2000's and feel in love with them. I just could not find the one that I wanted. There are not that many on the roads in Virginia Beach. Everytime I go out everyone has to ask what kinda of car is that. I am so proud to be a S-2000 owner. I was told the other day that 2008 will be the last year of production. My car did not have any scratches or dings in the body. I guess who ever owned it before treated very good. I just retired after working for 34 years and I seem to be busier than when I was working. Of course this gives me more time to drive my new Car.

Congrats GG from one old fart to another.
I'm 70 and I run the dragon every chance I get.
Enjoy the car. It's a fine ride.

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.

A western from back in the late 50's maybe early 60's. Funny how I can't remember what I had for breakfast this morning, but I remember things from when I was a kid. Maybe the "Gray Ghost" is a good name for my brain.

Ummmm-m-m-m-m . . golly Don. Don't have any idea whu'cha talkin' about.
Right. N' if you'll swallow that one, I'll break out a flatfish.
Know all too well of what you speak. Maybe it was kind'uv a local show as I thought that I knew most all'a the cowboy shows.
The site impropriety police'll be after me (Again) for this, but do any'a you guys remember Stony Brook from slightly earlier than that Ghost fella?
(N' I don't wanna hear one peep oud'a you young fellers either. Don't make me come down there!)
Be well.

You might be thinking of Stoney Burke. Played by Jack Lord, who was also in Hawaii 5-0.

Sorry to hijack your greeting GG. I think we need a new thread for us "old timers". Pull up your rockin chair and stop complainin about the aches and pains..........
