I'd be more leary then at $21,500 that's cheap. Autotrader is a little wacked, people asking WAY more than it's worth. IMO $25,000 is high for that much mileage.

I have 40k Km's on my car '01 and probably could barely get $30,000 now.

Where are you located? Check out the toronto/ottawa section or the prairie redliners for the west of Canada.

I did my search based on "All of Ontario" location.

I'm located in the GTA. Does the KBB apply to
Canadian vehicles? Can I just convert the price
range with the current exchange rate and expect
that to be the Canadian market price as well?

I sold my 2001 with 59000 miles for $15500 -- I don't see any reason to doubt that price. Could just be that that guy's more realistic than most.

I've seen lots of S2000's come and go on autotrader.ca for $24000-27000, even with low mileage (like around 40k kms). I've been watching the market for about 2 yrs.
This time of year, if you want a quick sale, with that kind of mileage, then $21K doesn't seem out of line.

16,500 isn't the lowest I've heard. A friend of mine saw a couple recently around $15k US he said.

Wow. That's really strange.

In Canada here, year model 2000+ similar mileage
white ITRs are selling for around the same price
(give or take $1500).

I guess buyers of ITRs and S2ks don't cross shop?
Or is it because of ITRs rarity?
