Default S2000 as Second Car

Hello,

I really want to get a s2000 for my second car. Don't want to spend too much upfront so I can add a really good set of coilovers and rims on it.

What do you guys think about this one?

Too many miles?

Looks to be pretty good. I'd try to talk him down below $8K.

You wouldn't be concerned with that kind of mileage? How do I know compression isn't shot?

Take it for a test drive and then decide if its the right one.

Skip it and spend a little more for a better car.

Well I would definately have to drive it. If it was me, I'd also do a compression test on myself. You can definately get something better for that kind of money. Look around and get what you can afford. I've looked a couple and finally think I've found one in my price range and in the color I want.
