After just 3 days? Give it time; I'm sure it will sell. I like how you did the clear bra; I will do the same on my car.

My buddy just had his 08 Black RS ship from Germany.
It should be here in Ohio about 2/3 weeks.

Great car. I'd consider if decided to move my current GT2. This is in process. O/T, but I notice that you have an S2000 that you are keeping. I was considering one as well. Can you provide your perspective on it. Seems like a fun ride. Thanks.

prg

re the S2000. Fun car.
(+) Nicely balanced ( doesn't push like modern porsche). Great steering feel (in the same ballpark as a porsche). The gearbox is the next best thing to a race dog box (best I've ever felt in a street car). Very short precise throws. Very close ratios let you keep the motor up in the rev range. Not geared overly tall like the GT3RS. The biggest + is my 3 year boy loves to ride with the top down on a nice day. XM radio for a few hundred $.

(-) If your used to a GT2, you may not be satisfied with the modest power to weight ratio and lack of torque. The newer 2.2 liter cars have a much better powerband for street use than the old 2.0 liter cars, but no one ever called an s2000 torquey. Lacks the tremendous grip of a modern 911. Brakes (while very adequate) aren't in the same league with the PCCB's.

Around town I think its more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. I get a lot of smiles from the S2000. It is my primary daily driver. (Bear in mind, my daily commute is about 3 miles)

Thanks for your insights on your S2k. My sentiments exactly regarding driving a slow car fast. To really enjoy my modded GT2, I need to be on a track or faster than appropriate on the street. Good luck with your RS sale.

Can you post some pics?

Why are you selling so soon?

prg

I'd bought it with the idea of tracking it, but I've just bought a pro formula mazda (and I race a spec miata) which are going to consume all of the race/track time and budget (and probably a bit more!)

Pics as requested.

Those tires look as if they have a few fun miles on them. I have a lot of practice checking tire wear after two kids.

prg

I ran 2 fifteen minute sessions on the track at a weekend I was racing a spec miata and a standard formula mazda. I just didn't find driving this car with DE passing rules very fun after racing for 4 years. For someone who loves DE/Track days, this is a great car. I've realized I just don't need a compromise car. I have some other good street cars and I just bought a much more satisfying race car.

That's Di Leo's old car, you bought his helmet too?
