Default Good deal??

Hello Everyone,

The S2000 has been my dream car for as long as I can remember. Question on the table is this. I found a red 2006 S2000 with 26,xxx miles two owners, clean title history and all vin tags present. I can buy it for 21,000.... is this a good deal???? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Novotz

I would say thats a pretty good deal assume the car is in good condition when you see it in person. Thats low miles and a good color. Is it stock? Any signs it has been modded?

Bone stock, older couple owns It, supposedly no accidents but of course I will verify for myself on that one. I know there are a bunch of vin tags to look for just don't know exactly where to look. I am researching that here as we speak.

Total of 10 tags, one on each panel. Look for overspray if anything has had to have been painted and proper maintenance records will help.

If you are really worried have an inspection done. Ask lots of questions. Sounds quite a lot like mine when I bought it. See if they have service records.

UPDATE:

Met the seller today, he couldn't have been a nicer guy, He bought the car for his wife as a 60th birthday present. The car was as advertised, all vin tags present, no corrosion of any sort, no evidence of any body work. I AM AN OWNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
