Congratulations, that is a beautiful car.
After Friday and Saturday being so sunny and warm, today was such a reversal.
March will be here soon and hopefully better weather as well.

I did get my lift moved with the help of a buddy this weekend so I'm excited about that. I need to get a side mount garage opener and have the door open towards the ceiling more before I can use it though

Local to where? You’re posting in the N Georgia thread and the location in your signature is Santa Monica…

The car (and owner) is local to the Atlanta area😉

Anyone heading down to the Amelia Island Concours/Werks Reunion 29 Feb - 3 Mar? Have also posted in 991 and General Discussion forum. Figured I would post here as well. Wife and I are heading down and are going to the Brumos museum on Thursday, Werks Reunion on Friday, Hangar Amelia on Saturday and the Concours on Sunday. Would love to connect if anyone else is attending!

Just did 420 miles on Thursday on a trip to the Tail of the Dragon and Skyway!!

I say it every time but these S2K's are just something special to drive and enjoy!! Esp. with the extra power / torque of the supercharger, it just is a individual experience I can't get from my other cars.

If you've never driven one, you should.

I know it’s last minute, but a friend of mine and I are headed up to North Georgia via 575 and headed to the tail of the dragon area and pigeon Forge to have all you can eat crab legs at Captain Jim’s. Anybody that happens to be off and wants to join and meet us somewhere up north Reply to this thread or p.m. me.

Man, sounds like a great time. Thanks for the invite but can't today. I'm hoping to make it out for a weekend drive sometime.

Also, nice S2000. Hadn't heard of the SOS kits, only the kraftwerks which is what I had on my 8th Gen SI.

I think that’s what the guy who used to own this one had on it, but it was evidently widely known that they were not as reliable and the best kit out was the science of speed kit, so he went ahead and swapped over to this. It’s been absolutely trouble free for me so far. We are both in the S2K’s again today. Too nice not to have the convertibles out.

We did about 320 miles yesterday!! My 3rd time to the mountains in about a week and a half. 1300 miles in that time. Two trips to the Tail of the Dragon. Both in the S2K though.


Few pics from yesterday.
