Hello,

I'm not really much of a forum person and it's been a while since I last posted on a forum. I joined here because I had some quick questions about s2k's. I hope you can help me!

Some background info/introduction: I don't own a s2k just yet, but I am currently looking around to buy one. I've never owned a sports car, but I've had an '02 s40 1.9 for a while now- which in my opinion- isn't fast compared to what I've driven.

After driving my friend's sporty porsche, my s40 seemed boring... So I'm looking to buy a more sporty car. Some reviews I've read claim that s2000's are better than Boxsters?

Anyways, my question is this: what do you guys consider is a "steal" or a good buy for a 2001 s2000?? I found one on the web for $10,900 and it has 76,000 miles. Naturally, I'm not sure where to begin negotiating with dealers. I can also pay in cash/whole without financing, so take that into consideration as well..

Here's a link: http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?t...05&aff=national

It doesn't necessarily have to be this particular s2k, I can buy whichever- but my budget/family won't allow anything more than $12,000 for a weekend toy.

Thanks for your help!

 

I forgot to mention: I found a link online- should I use this as a general guideline?
