Thanks for looking!

Up for sale is my 3rd s2000 (these cars are great)!  Having two cars in Manhattan is not fun or smart so I want her to go to a better home.

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 1500 miles on the car since I bought it.  Clear NY title. Has 122k miles on it now and is located in Westchester NY / Manhattan NY.  

In the last 2 months, it has received some love and care from the s2000 communities best mechanic, Billman250 (Google him if you don't know him).

Valve Adjustment
Oil change (Mobil 1, and has been every 3,750 miles)
Differential Fluid
Transmission 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. 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. The car doesn't have rust on the panels, although it does have some surface rust on the underside (some bolts/brackets/springs, merely cosmetic). 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. I just noticed a crack (few inches long) in the windshield in the corner - the bottom driver's side corner. Not sure what this is from, either something fell on it while it was in my driveway or possibly the cold weather change but it wasn't there during my last drive. When I run my nail along it I can't feel the crack either on the inside or outside. I will try to get this replaced before the sale anyhow but either way it should be stable and safe to drive. Forbidden Mugen Vacuum Infused FRP Hardtop - fits great but the trim wasn't installed perfectly - I am including a full new set of trim with the sale of the car.  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 some life left in them. 

Brakes: Drilled/Slotted rotors with pads 80-90% life. Calipers were rebuilt by previous owner. After going to the track (first track day the car has ever seen) there is some noise from the pads, even though they're 80% I believe the pads probably got pretty hot and caused this (common occurrence after track and should go away after some normal driving). I 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.

McLaren collaborating with Honda future road cars?

Fri, 02 Aug 2013

McLaren and Honda may expand their alliance beyond the world of Formula 1, according a report from the UK's Autocar, which quotes McLaren CEO Martin Whitmarsh.
Citing the multi-year deal, Whitmarsh remarked at last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, "It's a pure Formula 1 contract, but we've already been looking at automotive technology and we're sharing that very openly. Our road car strategy at the moment has no other automotive partner and Honda would be a good place to collaborate."
Still, we wouldn't count on seeing a McLaren-Honda road car in the near future. According to Autocar, McLaren's road-car division is already tied up working on a rival for the Porsche 911, called the P13.

New Odyssey ads feature Honda Vac, star power

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

Honda has released a string of new ads highlighting its refreshed, 2014 Odyssey minivan. While the Japanese brand hasn't started bragging about attaining the first Top Safety Pick+ for minivans, it's all too happy to brag about another first - the world's first van with a built-in vacuum cleaner.
In three spots, anthropomorphic children's rubbish discusses the merits of the new minivan, only to be sucked up by the built-in vacuum, which is only available in the top-end Touring Elite model. There's also quite a bit of star power floating around for those that watch a lot of TV. Neil Patrick Harris from Doogie Howser, MD and How I Met Your Mother voices a character in one of the spots, while Rainn Wilson from The Office stars in another. Take a look below for all three ads from Honda.

Honda Gear concept explored at Montreal Auto Show

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

Our friends at Autoblog Canada have just come away with a closer look at Honda's surprise Gear Concept at the Montreal Auto Show. The little three-door hatchback is arguably the automaker's first real shot at the North American city car market (the Gear is much smaller than the Fit) and may be an indication that Honda is getting serious about going after Scion on this side of the world after the CR-Z hybrid failed to deliver. Honda says the Gear Concept takes its inspiration from the fixed-gear bicycle scene, and should allow buyers an unprecedented level of customization. Designers also wanted to show that a car can be both fun and practical.
We're all for a compact stylish three door with functional room inside, but given Honda's propensity for draining the personality from its concepts on the way to production (at least the ones that don't look showroom ready), we don't hold much hope for the Gear. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
