Scarsdale, New York, United States

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. Hawk Performance HPS Low-Dust Brake Pads. MODS and items to note: Exterior Cosmetics : • Forbidden Mugen Rep.

Honda gets weirdly R-Rated with new Civic Type-R launch video
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Honda is still about a year away from bringing back the Civic Type R to challenge Europe's hot hatch ranks, but the wait isn't stopping the brand from starting its promotion in the UK with a truly strange ad campaign.
Titled R-Rated, the marketing plays with the idea of Honda's Type R badge not being something for every driver, and its 60-second short film Disruption definitely isn't for everyone. The teaser video is meant to personify the spirit of the hot Civic by combining aggressively weird imagery with a glimpse of the new model. It cycles through things like a pack of wolves, androgynous models, a lady with a samurai sword and a flaming speed camera before getting to what we all want to see - the car. It's a weird, by turns creepy, video that feels like it's trying to be outlandish without always showing there's much thought behind the madness.
Perhaps the most frightening thing about the Civic Type R is that there are still major doubts about whether its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with an estimated 280 horsepower will make it to North Ameircan showrooms. We understand the business case may be tough, especially when the CTR's hatchback bodystyle isn't sold in America at all, but we think Honda's North American showrooms could use a bit more performance edge, and an affordable halo car like the Type R could do just that.
Honda gunning for world's longest Rose Parade float
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Honda has participated in the annual Rose Parade for the past 53 years and returns this year as the presenting sponsor for the fourth time running. But it's not satisfied merely putting its name on the event; Honda intends to lead from the front with what promises to be the longest float in the parade's long history.
The float, previewed in the rendering above, will measure 274 feet long, as tall as 30 feet high, as wide as 18 feet and weighing a whopping 50 tons with 8,980 flowers covering its surface. The train will be led by a locomotive designed to mimic the Acura NSX, with Asimo at the wheel. The second car in the train showcases a Honda engine, followed by a robotic arm, and, for the first time in the parade's history, a pair of 30-foot LED monitors displaying images of spectators lining the parade route. A caboose inspired by the Honda Jet will pick up the rear.
Oh, and in case you're wondering just who Honda will be knocking off the record books with its 274-foot train of roses, that would be... also Honda. The Japanese company set the record in 2005 with a 207-foot float. Scope out the details in the press release below and click the image above to view in high resolution.
Honda recalls 2012-13 Fit Sport models over stability control issue
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Honda is recalling 43,782 examples of the 2012 and 2013 Fit Sport in the US and close to 2,000 more in Canada. During federal compliance testing it was discovered that the software for the Vehicle Stability Assist allows an excessive tilt angle before applying the brakes to prevent a crash. The issue only affects Fit Sports equipped with a certain kind of tire.
Honda will notify owners in mid-May, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers to have the stability control software updated free of charge. There's a press release from Honda below with more details.
