Q: For Christmas I'm buying a 2006 Honda Roadster. What color should I get?
I was thinking of black - It will have a hard and rag top.

A: Black is a really hard color to keep clean, you might also look at the Red and Midnight Blue for the s2000, these colors also look awesome on the roadster!

Q: want to get a good sound on my 2007 honda s2000 roadster?


A: Are you talking about mods or a sound system??

Q: Which car would you prefer your date would be driving BMW Z3(M Roadster) or Honda S2000?
I am trying to decide between Honda S2000, BMW Z3 M Roadster. I believe Honda S2000 might be a little bit more fun to drive but I keep hearing about ladies attention to BMW's and Z3 M Roadster looks good(drives good too). I am a single guy mid twenties and I would have no problem with more attention from the girls. From one point of view one of them is Honda and the other is BMW. From a driver's stand point they are both good cars. I am kind of leaning towards Honda S2000 but the BMW brand name recognition makes me struggle between those cars. Basically specifically comparing the appeal of Honda S2000 and BMW Z3 M Roadster what do you think which would you prefer your date to drive? Do you think there is a significant difference between those cars from female attraction stand point? (Marketing proffesionals should know something, cars, clothing, etc. should be making some difference, even if it is more for the initial attraction and I agree that girls aren't dating cars)

A: up to u... it doesnt matter which one u use, coz the important is the one who drive dat car

Q: 350Z roadster or honda S2000?
any one who owns any of these cars. please tell me your likes or dislikes also i would like to know how the condition of the convertible top has aged over the years

A: The two cars are rag tops honda's plastic window will turn brown in 4 years and Nissan Z will develop holes in the top in 4 years. Either way you loose. Roadsters are only nice one or two months a year down here in Texas then the A/C gets turned on or heat gets turned on top stays up the rest of the time. Roadsters you hear every car around you and roll over accidents are not nice with cloth over head. There are some 2004 z car tops still un affected by wear and tear (because they never get folded) and kept clean. I don't know why Honda decided to go with clear plastic weight might be why. Any way convertible tops are expensive to replace. Honda's manual top is less expensive. Nissan uses 6 motors and 12 micro switches and just the cloth costs over $450 and about $1,000 to have it properly installed it also needs the 4 head roll bar covers replaced each time to remove the top stack.

Q: whats the better roadster? bmw z3/z4 or honda s2000?
i prefer the s2000..though i almost bought a 98 z3

A: I'd go with the S2000. Not that the Z3/Z4 are bad cars, but the S2000 is more of a purist's sports car. High-revving engine, razor sharp (though difficult handling, especially the early cars) few things to get in the way of actually driving it. It's basic-ness is one of its greatest characteristics

Q: is it possible to insure a Bmw Z4 or a Audi TT or a Honda S2000 all 2.0litre engines at aged 22years old?
also could i insure a Mazda Mx 5 Roadster coupe 1.8i or Mazda Rx 8 2.0litre Only one of those cars i want to insure.

A: anyone can insure any of them its just how much its gonna cost you!

Q: What do YOU think is the fuel of the future and why?
Personally I think it will be Hydrogen and electric power that fuel the cars of tomorrow. There has been major buzz about the Honda FCX Clarity, Tesla Roadster, and Chevy Volt.

A: I agree...everything seems to be going "green" these days...these companies seem to be finding a way to do anything and everything with cars...isnt the prius run on some sort of earth friendly fuel....saw an electric car on top gear last year too....so who knows....lets just hope its cheaper than what we have to fork out for now!!!

Q: What car or truck should I purchase to be a future collectible?
I plan on purchasing a vehicle that is fun and will most likely be collectible. I would just drive it in nice weather and would put little mileage on it. I would be able to spend up to around $25,000. Whatever I purchase, it needs to be reliable/easily serviced, somewhat comfortable (able to fit in at 6'2" tall), under 35,000 miles (approx.), and fairly fast. I would prefer a convertible, but it is not a necessity. I have been considering the following: Honda s2000 BMW Z4 3.0 Audi TT Quattro Roadster Dodge Ram SRT-10 Chrysler Crossfire (coupe and roadster) Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 Coupe Subaru WRX STi 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO 2001-2003 Corvette Z06 Chevrolet SSR Mazda RX-8 Nissan 350Z Toyota MR2 Spyder Porsche Boxster and Boxster S BMW M Roadster (Z3) Mazdaspeed MX-5 If anyone has any personal experience with any of these, please let me know. Think you know what will be a wise investment? Let me know. Advice of any kind is appreciated.

A: For best bang for the buck, consider these, The Mustang SVO 84-86, and Cobra SVT are and will be collectibles :) also, T-Bird SuperCoupe 89 -97 (supercharged) Mercur XR4TI 84-88 (turbocharged SVO motor)

Q: If the max speed limit on most US highways is 65, why are American cars built to go as fast as 130 mph-plus?
Just wondering since I hear people brag about getting their M2 Roadsters up to some ridiculous speed, yet I get nailed by the po-po for going 85 in my humble Honda Civic. What gives?

A: I use Rader Detector.... 360* I drive what I want til I see 5.O then when past I look for the 2nd 1 then I'm off... If there is one there will be another I've learned.. 5.0, cops, pigs, po-po, City Kitty's

Q: CMS Roadster Touring Moped 250cc Water Cooled ... Thinking of buying?
does anyone know anything about CMS http://countrymotorsports.com/inc/sdetail/3587 thats the website .. are parts easy to get? can you use name brand parts like honda etc...??? or are there any other scooters in that price range? in the 250cc range.

A: Cheap Chinese -- looks pretty -- won't run long.

Q: Honda S2000 or Mazda Miata?
Or any other one... What is the best roadster for the money

A: Miata. The Honda is a great, sporty car. But the Miata was built as a sports car from the ground up. Both good cars. The Miata has been a Car and Driver "10 Best Cars" 9 times. The S2000 - 4 times. Drive them and it should be an easy choice.

Q: Which car is the best based on speed,reliability & gas?
I would also love to customize the car later by adding speed to it, sound system(i already have a 15's),body kit, rims & so on. Which car would be the best to do all that in & which one is still gonna be good without doing all this to it.... 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt LT1 Coupe 2007 Pontiac G5 Coupe 2007 Scion tC Sport Coupe 2007 Honda Civic Coupe LX 5-Spd MT 2008 Dodge Avenger SE 2007 Pontiac G6 Sedan 2007 Mazda MAZDA6 i Sports Sedan Sport 2006 Acura RSX 5-Spd MT 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe 2.5 S 2008 Saturn VUE FWD 4-Cylinder XE 2007 Honda Civic Si Coupe 6-Spd MT 2007 Dodge Charger SE 2007 Chrysler 300 Base 2007 Saturn SKY Roadster 2007 Nissan Murano S 2WD 2008 Dodge Challenger 2008 Smart ForTwo 2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C230 Sport Sedan 2007 Infiniti G35 Sedan Base

A: the infiniti g35 sedan, absolutely. They have great reliability, performance, and class. The customer service at infinity is awsome. If you walk into a dodge, ford or chevy dealership then walk into an infinity dealership you'll know what im talking about. I have seen 2 g35s in magazines that were customized and they were jaw dropping awazing. Another nice perk of infinity, anytime you take your car in to get some work done, they give you another infinity to drive for free until your car is ready. The best part of the g35, even if you dont do a thing to it, it is still one sweet looking and performing car.

Q: Ladies please help me on car buying?
I am trying to decide between Honda S2000, BMW Z3 M Roadster. I believe Honda S2000 might be a little bit more fun to drive but I keep hearing about ladies attention to BMW's and Z3 M Roadster looks good(drives good too). I am a single guy mid twenties and I would have no problem with more attention from the girls. From one point of view one of them is Honda and the other is BMW. From a driver's stand point they are both good cars. I am kind of leaning towards Honda S2000 but the BMW brand name recognition makes me struggle between those cars. Basically specifically comparing the appeal of Honda S2000 and BMW Z3 M Roadster what do you think which would you prefer your date to drive? Do you think there is a significant difference between those cars from female attraction stand point? (Marketing proffesionals should know something cars. clothing, etc should be making some difference, even if it is more for the initial part)

A: I personally recognize the Honda S2000 name but some females may not know that it's a high end sports car. What if the lady doesn't see you in the car and you tell her what you drive? Would you rather say Honda or a Z3 Roadster?? Point being she's going to be impressed when she hears Roadster. When it comes to which is more attractive to the ladies I think that the woman is going to be more concerned with the color than whether or not the S2000 is better than the Roadster. All we are going to recognize is that it's an expensive sports car. Forget the rest. But really, don't rest your whole decision on what's going to bring you the most women. If all of your choices are expensive cars, just pick the one you personally prefer.

Q: Best way to get car insurance?
I have heard that it may be better to get car insurance from a broker rather than online. I am 18, and I want to get my own policy. I am currently a named driver on my dads policy, as it is much cheaper to do it that way but I want to buy a car in my name and start earning my own ncb. I currently drive a Jaguar X Type and the insurance costs £2100 from Tesco (with my dad as the main driver). It would cost me about £3200 to insure it myself with Tesco. I want to get a smaller car that is easier on petrol and road tax, but I am having trouble finding a realistic quote. I am thinking about either a Smart Roadster coupe, a honda civic or ford fiesta. With Tesco, I dont get 1 year ncb as I would have done with Direct Line, and the insurance would be OK if I did. Its tempting me to lie on the insurance if I cant find a decent quote (under £2000), although I wouldn't want to. Can anyone offer me any advice on how to find cheaper car insurance or recommend any companies ?

A: Have you tried http://www.confused.com http://www.gocompare.com and http://www.comparethemarket.com - you only have to fill in your details once on each website and they will get quotes from loads of brokers and insurance companies. I have found Quinn Direct (http://www.quinn-direct.co.uk ) best for young drivers, especially if you are a named driver on your parents policy. If you decide to be the policy holder they will give you a big discount for being a named driver on last years insurance (I would still try adding your dad as a named driver on your policy as this often lowers the price further). If you use the comparison sites above they will get a quote from Quinn Direct for you and save you filling in yet more forms. I wouldn't lie about having a no claims bonus as most (if not all) companies ask for you to send proof and will cancel you policy if they don't receive it within 14 days. It's worth changing your details to see the difference in price (annual mileage etc.). Once I found fully comprehensive was the same price as third party fire and theft, so it's worth checking all levels of cover. Good luck ;)
