Thanks for looking!

Up for sale is my 3rd s2000 (these cars are great)! 

I bought it from the original owner -- he was very meticulous about this car for many years. I have a very thick folder with maintenance and parts records. I've put only about 2000 miles on the car since I bought it.  Clear NY title. Has 122k miles on it now and is located in Westchester NY.  Please note car does NOT come with a hardtop, it comes with a newer glass soft top installed.  

In the last 2 months, it has received some love and care from the s2000 communities best mechanic, Billman250 (http://www.billman250.com/services/).

Valve Adjustment
Oil change (Mobil 1, and has been every 3,750 miles)
Differential Fluid

Super Blue Race Brake fluid with brake flush
New Spark Plugs
New belt and pulleys
Clutch pedal adjustment
General once over

Condition:

Exterior: Car has been professionally repainted and overall the paint is very good - thorough job and all jams, trunk, engine bay (although some is flaking there). The car has a genuine Veilside body kit - front bumper, side skirts (molded), rear fender flares (molded), and rear bumper. The fit and molding are very good. There are chips on the front bumper and hood as you can see in the pictures. Front bumper also has some spider web cracking near headlights, although hard to see unless you are up close. I backed into a rock and there is a quarter sized section of paint missing on the side of the rear bumper.  I don't think there are any dents or dings.  When I bought the car the driver's side mirror was damaged so I bought another mirror (Red). Both mirrors were then plasti-dipped black, as well as area above the windshield.  It has a new glass window soft top, no tears.

Interior: The interior is in excellent condition. The seats are in great condition for their age with no rips, tears, or discoloration. There are the usual leather stress cracks but you probably won't ever see seats with 120k miles that look this good. The rest of the interior is clear with no holes or damage. Trim pieces were painted the same color as exterior and were done very well. See interior/stereo mods below.  Electronics all work.  

Engine/General Mechanical: Very strong - I've had 3 s2000s and test drove a lot of them before I picked up this last one - it has been the strongest of the bunch. Very mechanically sound and has great acceleration. It has been maintained very well. Acceleration is smooth, No CELs, hesitation, or weird engine noises. No visible leaks. Throttle body was replaced at about 60k miles. 

Transmission: Smooth as butter. Better than my 2002 that had 30k miles. No grinds or issues. Clutch is very strong, no signs of slippage. The clutch plate was replaced (per buzzing/ringing TSB, not due to abuse) right at 36k miles, so it has <100k miles.

Suspension/Wheels: Great handling with the buddy club coil-overs. The Buddy Clubs were rebuilt at around the 100k mark, though they were only on the car starting around the 50k mark). Preventative maintenance was done over the years, such as swapping the CV cups on the rear end around 100k miles... no significant wear was noticed, but they were swapped anyway. Alignment is great (UK Alignment), no shaking - very stable. Traklite wheels are light and great for the track. Tires are Bridgestone Potenza's with decent life left in them. 

Brakes: Drilled/Slotted rotors with pads 80-90% life. Calipers were rebuilt by previous owner.  There is some squeaking from the pads even though they have about 80% life left on them.  I will include also have a full set extra set of rotors and pads to include with the car. Brakes are very strong with Super Blue race fluid - just flushed/bled. Stainless steel brake lines. Hawk Performance HPS Low-Dust Brake Pads

Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes also under diesel emissions scrutiny

Sat, Oct 10 2015

The controversy over Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal isn't limited to the US. In Europe, where diesel engines are far more popular, the issue is shining a harsh light on the NEDC emissions test. As already known, the evaluation does a poor job of reflecting real-world production of NOx, and it appears a significant number of automakers are affected. The Guardian in the UK has been reporting on real-world test results from a company called Emissions Analytics. After the latest round of checks, vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi were found to generate far more NOx than they should. The newspaper also published similar results for Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroen, VW, and Audi. On average, the figures are about four times over the limit of producing the pollutant. Unlike VW and its defeat device, these automakers aren't actually breaking the rules. The vehicles perform up to the NEDC lab test for emissions, but those results simply aren't translated to the street. "The VW issue in the US was purely the trigger which threw light on a slightly different problem in the EU - widespread legal over-emissions," Nick Molden from Emissions Analytics said to The Guardian. A big fight to decide the future of this issue appears to be on the horizon. Automakers claim that they can't meet the next round of tightening emissions regulations and are asking for compromises. Although, spokespeople for Mercedes and Honda told The Guardian that the brands would be in favor of the stricter rules. Meanwhile, some European governments began backtracking their support of diesels well before this scandal came to light. The added scrutiny certain hasn't helped the future of the oil-burner.

Google's new Android Autos OS unveiled, will be in cars this year [w/video]

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Connected cars are coming en-masse. We know this much. How, though, remains something of an open question, especially as two of the world's largest tech companies are preparing to battle for control of your car's dashboard. On the one hand, we have Apple and its CarPlay system. And now, we know what Google has been working on with Auto Link.
Its new name is Android Auto, and yes, it's based off the Android architecture that is the primary challenger to Apple's iOS mobile operating system. Announced at Google's I/O conference today, Android Auto functions similarly to CarPlay - owners will need to plug their smartphones into their cars to access the full breadth of capability.
In Android Auto's case, that means a wealth of voice controls to limit distracted driving. Google's marquee apps will be available when the interface arrives in production models later this year, including Google Play Music, Google Maps and voice-activated texting and text playback. Meanwhile, developers will be able to begin designing custom apps for the new system via an upcoming software development kit.

2016 Civic, Sonata, Lexus RX, and Altima earn TSP+ from IIHS [w/videos]

Thu, Jan 14 2016

The 2016 Honda Civic sedan, Hyundai Sonata, Lexus RX, and Nissan Altima started the year with a bang by earning Top Safety Pick+ honors from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. They join 48 other 2016 model year vehicles that IIHS already tested that received the agency's top safety marks. These four models met the IIHS' latest requirement, scoring the agency's best possible score in all five of its crash tests – front, side, rear, rollover, and the difficult small-overlap – to be eligible for the safety accolade. Hyundai improved the 2016 Sonata's structure after the sedan's production began, so this rating only applied to examples produced after October. To get the TSP+ honor, a vehicle's crash prevention tech needs to earn least two points on the IIHS' scale. The lower Top Safety Pick designation can go to model with a "basic" version of these systems like a front collision warning. The Civic, Sonata, and RX scored the maximum six points to get "superior" scores for their optional crash prevention tech because they avoided collisions at up to 25 miles per hour. The Altima was successful in a 12-mph test, but the system slowed the sedan by 10 mph in the 25-mph test rather than completely stopping it. Therefore, the agency awarded the Nissan five points, which was still a "superior" score. You can watch the small-overlap tests for the Civic, RX, Altima, and Sonata respectively below.

Four more vehicles earn the 2016 TOP SAFETY PICK+ award ARLINGTON, Va. — The Honda Civic 4-door, Hyundai Sonata, Lexus RX and Nissan Altima are the latest vehicles to earn the top award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The four vehicles join the 2016 winner's circle just one month after the initial crop of 48 TOP SAFETY PICK+ winners was announced. The requirements for TOP SAFETY PICK+ were tightened for 2016. To qualify, winners must earn good ratings in each of the Institute's five crashworthiness tests and have an available front crash prevention system earning an advanced or superior rating.
