Smile [1013MM] Presents: My Journey To Join The S2000 Family Ended Up Pretty Freaking GOOD!

Recently I had a chance to fly cross-country from Los Angeles to Georgia to pick up the love of my life. I flew in on a Friday and got back home to California in 3 days with sleep in between in some shady areas, hotels and weather. The car was still slammed on BC Racing coils during the trip in sun, rain AND snow. How the car made it to California in one piece? I don't know... Everyone said the journey would be tiresome and boring, but I think it was pretty good and a once in a lifetime experience.

The car before pick up....



Car during transport....






Yes... snow....



Video of said snow....




Some of the views...









Some of the ridiculous shiz....

Very cool! Must have been a great drive and great way to learn your new car. Please get the hard top! S2K's and hardtops look epic.
