[FONT=&]Hey CivicWagon, my name is Kevin and I'm glad to be a part of the forum. A little about myself below...[/FONT]
[FONT=&]- I'm 26 years old[/FONT]
[FONT=&]- I'm in my last semester of university[/FONT]
[FONT=&]- I've almost exclusively driven FF cars, but an S2000 is in the [near] future[/FONT]
[FONT=&]- I love driving up in the mountains[/FONT]
[FONT=&]I currently drive a 2013 Honda Fit with some basic modifications/upgrades to make spirited driving more enjoyable. Some notable upgrades include Integra Type R brake calipers, Bridgestone Potenza RE-71Rs, Tein Flex Z dampers, and a Mugen short shifter. For what it is, the Fit is very fun to drive, but I've longed for an S2000 for the past few years now and I'm hoping to make that dream a reality soon.[/FONT]
[FONT=&]Thanks for having me!

Thanks, @SoulEngineering! I was considering a K24 swap, but ultimately, I decided to go for an S2000 instead as it has been my dream car for quite some time now. Stock power is okay and the car is really fun on windy sections of road with some sticky tires. It is very capable on the downhill thanks to its light weight and small wheelbase.
My daily is a 2016 Fit and I have no complaints at all. I do wish they had come out with a sport option right away as I would have liked the little aero difference. Have you been over to fitfreak.net? Decent Fit forum if you're ever looking for something fit specific.
I actually used to own a 2017 before I switched to this Fit! Yeah, I'm a member of FitFreak.net as well; check out my threads below (if you'd like).
I'm currently in the process of prepping the car to list it up for sale. After she's sold, the hunt for an S2000 begins.
13,000 mile AP1 on BaT right now. ;)
That thing is way too clean for my intended usage! I forgot to update y'all, but I sold my Fit and I found an S2000. I made a thread over on S2KI to document my journey with her. She's a MY04 finished in one of my favorite colors, Sebring Silver. First course of action is to address any and all maintenance-related items.

Jelly, it looks great!
