Default S2000 for $8000? Fixable?
There are 2 S2000s on EBay. 1 with clear title, the other with salvage title. The salvage one is still driveable claims the owner. But I don't think you could fix and sell it right??? Then there is this red one. How much do you think it would cost to fix up?

Wouldn't the engine, tranny, top and wheels (3), as well as other misc. parts be worth at least $9K?

The engine, tranny, top and seats probably add up to over $9k, not to mention the dash and interior. The ad claims that the fram is NOT damaged, in which case the car would still cost a fortune to fix. Clean title means that it can be sold w/o a SALVAGE title...hmmm, a body shop may want to take that on, but not me.

$20k is definitely too much.
