Hello all, or y’all where I’m from..

ive wanted one of these cars since they first came out but definitely couldn’t afford one back then. I’m looking at a couple right now ,2006 and 2007 and the prices are both in the low thirties. I was just wondering what these cars sold for new? Any info would be appreciated.

 

I think it was around $35k for a 2008: https://www.kbb.com/honda/s2000/2008/

Wow, CR was only $3k more! Sounds like a steal

 

Don't forget inflation.

$1.00 in 2008 is $1.43 in 2023. $35,000 would be $50,050 today -- still a bargain?

There's a rumor that a new S2000 will come out in 2024, all electric, $50-60k

 

Perhaps, but people have been saying that for how long now?

I will say this sounds more convincing than in the past, since it came from within Honda leadership.

 

S2000s were 50K when they were introduced in Canada in 1999.

 

$47,800 in Canuck-bucks to be technical. They were about $32K US when released down south.

 

Plus Freight and PDI...and all the overpriced accessories that could be bolted on!

 

Canada/US exchange rate has been horrible for Canucks for years. Dollars ain't dollars. CAD$1.36 to USD$1.00 this morning so a USD$50,000 S2000 would be CAD$68,000 .

Many years ago I administered compensation rates for a major US company and we paid nearly the same salaries in both countries but the buying power power of the Canadian dollar was much lower.
