Hello all,

I wanted to introduce myself, as I just moved to Lockport from the Washington, DC area. While I am the suit and tie type by day, my evenings and weekends revolve around cars. Thus, I would love to meet some people in the area interested in cars.

My primary whip is a heavily modified 2004 Honda S2000, while my other car is a BMW 325xi.

Additionally, in my spare time I work on S2000’s, as it is well known Honda techs are incompetent to work on the car (anyone who owns an S2k will tell you the horror stories). Thus, if you need work done to your S2k (i.e. routine maintenance, installation of mods, other general repairs) feel free to shoot me a PM. I guarantee I will charge you MUCH less than the dealer. If you need references, I can supply you with some.

I hope to meet some of you in the near future.

-Will

Hey, saw your post on s2ki as well. Welcome to the area. If you’re in Rochester sometime, look me up!

Actually, you should come out for a Rochester D&D meetup. Doug puts on about one a month and they’re always a good time. Usually 5-10 S2k guys.

Welcome, I have a LOT of Lotus friends in the DC area. You should be stabbed for leaving there to come here, haha. I love DC man. Glad to see we got another cool car guy here. PM me sometime if you ever want to drive. LOVE S2000’s!

To respond to those as to why I moved here:

1. I was laid off by the lobbying firm for which I worked and am tired of the extreme stress of working in politics in DC.
2. My fiance is from two of the most prominent families in Upstate NY, thus their many connections should help me find a job easily.
3. My fiance’s parents have a guest house and offered to let us live there for free. It sure beats the $1500+ a month rent I was paying to live in a gated community in the DC area!
