*Cough Cough* REAL CARS ARE BUILT, NOT BOUGHT!

And on that note, s2000's are sexy. =P I love how they look just as much as the other guy. You'll have more lady attention and hondafanboys lusting at your car if you get the s2000.
But doing a Dseries build will get you more respect, and will make your car a real car.


OR - what I'D do.. get the s2k AND turbo build the ol civic!

if i got an s2k, i would probably only do simple mods

custom interior like headliner and armrests
wiretuck
relocate battery
shave engine bay
maybe add some performance **** for the hell of it

you could still get the s2k and do a mild turbo build. Try to get a good deal on the s2k, then with the money you thought you would be spending on the s2k but saved by getting a good deal, use on turboing the civic. Remember you can turbo the civic and get around 200hp for 2k if you try hard enough.

The point of me posting that? A suggestion for if the OP decides to get the s2k.

The point of doing it? Aesthetics and slight heat extraction.

^not liking that hood at all, maybe because its on a yellow car and sticks out so much. I think it would look better if it was on a black car since it wouldnt stand out.

I mostly like it because it's different but still clean. Actually, I've seen two cars with it done so far, and both were students at Wyotech. Actually, the car I posted a pic of was one of the two cars (I mean it was literally the student in question's car); the other was my friend Jared's car.
