What about Sunbeam Tigers? I've always wanted one after seeing a mint example in the flesh. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunbeam_Tiger

Just out of curiosity I checked craigslist for Sunbeams: http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/cto/3504769973.html Needs a restoration but looks good. I have no idea if that's a fair price however.

Good luck with the rebuild dude, but I gotta say there's no way I'd buy an S2000 with a DIY rebuild. You should just keep it and drive the drat thing, all those old cars you're looking at are going to drive like utter poo poo in comparison.

Yeah, don't get rid of a very capable sports car just because you got a motorcycle. Apples and oranges.

Hmmmm, tough choice. Civic or S2k? It's a no brainer dude.

Galler posted:I've got a rather quick bike (BMW K1200RS) and as fun as it is to be able to hit triple digit speeds in an instant I would still very much like a fun car as well. There are plenty of times where the weather isn't right or I just don't feel like putting on all my gear or whatever. A roadster is actually a great compromise to a bike. Great handling convertible, and although the acceleration doesn't come close, it's the closest thing to a bike on four wheels imo. Since I've stopped riding I've been through four miatas

Adiabatic posted:and a 38k mile motor is a pretty good selling point with 95k on the chassis. Not to be a downer, but not really. Especially when a potential buyer asks who replaced the motor. You can be a completely competent backyard mechanic but most people are going to pass on it for the simple fact they can find another S2k that has an original motor installed by the factory. If you're confident with your install of the new motor I wouldn't say poo poo because it wont help you sell it imo.

Apparently they don't like angry outbursts that sounds like someone with tourette syndrome on crack.

Haha, we should have an AI Awards Thread at the end of the year, winners get an appropriate custom title or some sort of lovely prize.
