The warranty depends on who its from and what warranty they bought. It'd be best to ask the owner. A HondaCare extended warranty is usually bumper to bumper but with certain exceptions. A Certified Pre-Owned Honda Warranty could be a powertrain only warranty or it could be a bumper to bumper with exceptions. I don't think HondaCare offers an 8 year, 80k mile warranty though, so it could be from another company and then it could be entirely different.

yep, the S2000 comes with a 3 year, 36,000mi warranty, and that's it. any after-market warranty be careful, because there may be big co-pays and deductibles, may not be transferrable, etc. and they are right, tires and insurance!

insurance is'nt a problem at all to my suprise. $215 a month and thats it. And this is in Florida. Once I get stationed in Virginia it will be alot cheaper because I am taking off personal injury because I am in the military. And I am going to cancel the property damage. My rates should be significantly lower. Note I am 19 years old and this is cheap to me compared to paying $380 a month on a 98 Eclipse in New Jersey.

Also thanks for the replies I"ll be sure to give him a call again about the warranty information i am very excited about this.

look at a few cars, get to know the differences first hand and what clean cars look like...soon you can tell if the cars you see have been take care of or not, body damage or not, need this and that...but by all means drive a few examples...it will take time but you will have the knowledge and experience in the end that will aid in a correct choice for you...done by you....and you will be living with it...

SQS,

Make sure to read the Introduction forum FAQ thread at the top of the Introductions page. There's lots of answers to your original questions, though not all of them.

Good hunting.
