Someone I know is looking for an s2000 and I was curious if anyone knows anything about this car or dealership.
http://orlando.craigslist.org/ctd/3225350391.html
There are several s's in the private market that I would like to recommend, but due to trade in / financing it must be purchased from a dealer.
All I can really tell from the pictures is that the center console needs a door (or replaced), it is missing the plastic pieces that cover the hardtop brackets, and the shift knob looks like it is from an early 90's accord.
Or if any of you know of one not listed online at a dealer (under 17k) that would be better please let me know.
Thanks,
Joshua

Dealer is super sketchy. Don't buy from them. They get their cars from auction fix them and sell them also beating on them in the process. One of their salesmen told me about the auction thing face to face.

That car in particular has a cracked rear window on the hardtop as well as tons of dents all over it. They also have a black one that's beat to hell and the mechanic in the back was driving it like he stole it 'testing' out the clutch. I'd say look elsewhere for a better deal if you don't want to be ripped off.

If they still decide to consider the car, just drop by the place and you'll see exactly why you should stay away from them.

Not sure if your friend wants an ap1 or ap2 but I'm looking for an ap2 otherwise I'd pick that car up in a heartbeat.

I know the guy selling that car, but like I said, it needs to be from a dealer due to trade-in and financing.
Thanks for the heads up on the car in Orlando, I had a feeling there was something wrong with it (mainly due to the fact it is still available)

Sorry, I completely skipped over that one line of the post. lol but yea, there's not many around that aren't beat to hell which is why I've been looking for close to half a year for the right one.

Well she picked up the 08 nfr from Coggin Honda of Orlando. Does anyone happen to know who owned it? It has clear side markers, led interior lights and a fabric (possibly alcantara- not too sure) shift boot. The girl that was looking was the gf, she didn't want anyone to know she was in the market for one. Only took about four years to convert her from a honda hater to an owner. She traded her 2011 mustang for it.

Oh, and we went by that dealership- that place was very sketch. Every car they had was messed up. The place smelt like stale cigarettes.
