So I was in Miami last week for the Lowrider Car Show... A friend of my friends pulls up in his brand new Honda S2000. They told me to use it since I wanted to buy one for my bday this year... and well, I didn't fit. I just got to sit down and that's it. The damn car is to little for me, or i'm too big for the car.

So then my friend says, get in the passenger seat, I barely fit there also... I did get in though. We were racing down the parking lot and HOLY SHIT!!! I never knew the s2000 was that damn fast.... now imagine it with the vortech supercharger, that car is a killer... GRRRR

I guess i'm destined to just have an RSX or another civic

Being tall sucks sometimes. I knocked myself out for a few seconds on a low hanging tree branch, once.

damn, one day I drove my sisters eclipse to cal state long beach and knocked the hell out of my head while going into the damn car... I was seeing stars like heck haha. Very true, sometimes it sucks being too tall.

i'm 6'1 and was like 240 ish when i was in an s2k last... and i didn't fit either. ihad to throw my right leg OVER the steering wheel. it wouldn't fit between the wheel and the seat.

i could NEVER drive one of those. ever. and that was with the roof off.
i think if the top was on, i would have had my head on the cieling hunched over. more so, i wasn't impressed with it's performance. it was ok, but IMO, you can do sooooooooooo much better for 32k. fuck that car.

I had bid 8000 on a 1957 international panel but the guy backed out on it on ebay... WTF... I was going to rebuild it and basically get a new truck chassis and put a 383 engine with a supercharger for my dad... To bad he backed out... but yes, 50's cars are good when solid.

Want a 1940's car for less than a G?
