Default New guy from Phoenix!

I do not own a S2000 yet, but will soon be shopping for one after I sell my current car. I want to ask s2000 owners, what things do I need to be aware of when buying these cars? Looking forward to being part of this community.
Thanks

Ive been looking at s2000s in craigslist and autotrader and concluded that the car is out of my price range. Can anyone tell me if the s2000 is a more reliable car than the rsx? I wouldn't mind getting a small loan to purchase the s2000, if it means that I won't spend much keeping it maintained than the rsx.

What intrigues me about the s2000 is the wide selection of aftermarket parts, but that won't come until I'm done with school
