In 2006 I was driving a Boxster S. I'd had it 3 years and it was about 5 years old. I'd had a few issues with it that were compounded by the woefulness of the local Porsche main dealer. As I passed a Honda garage I saw a black Honda S2000 on some of those raised ramps outside. 2005 with 17K on the clock, it was immaculate. I did the deal there and then. I drove that car for 140K miles and loved every minute of it. Uber reliable, hood down in 6 seconds, looked the part and a whole heap of fun. Traded it back to Honda for a Civic Type R in 2012. Best car i ever owned and for me a much better ownership experience than the Porsche. You have to drive it as it's been designed and that is what catches most peoplemout. If you're looking for a lazy big power delivery cruiser the S2000 is not for you. It only really gets going around 6500rpm. Best gear change I have ever owned though. Makes constantly changing gear (that you need to do to keep it on song) a complete pleasure.
That’s a very nice car. My recent car purchase was also bought on a whim. I bought a year old Mini Convertible John Cooper Works which has around 230bhp and is an absolute blast to drive.
