Default Looking at buying s2k, please help

Okay I've always wanted an s2000, currently I cant afford to pay the used price for them (they range around 25k here in toronto)

I found this one:
http://plazek.com/long_entry.php?car_id=38

How much would you guys estimate it would cost to get it fixed up? What should i watch out for? Why do you think the airbags didnt go off?

I can probably lowball this price down..let me know what u guys think

Cheers!

I think you would be better off buying something else.

Why even bother? Everything but 2 panels is junk. You'll spend more on parts/repairs than it would cost just to buy a older model with high miles. I say wait until you can actually afford the car, don't forget about the high cost of insurance once that thing actually gets on the road.

In response to your questions:
1) More than its worth
2) A smashed up salavage title car
3) Probably b/c it wasn't a head-on collision.
