i am trying to get out of my 2004 Acura TSX and into something a little more focused - i.e. the S2000.

the best i have seen on a 2005 at this point is $33.5 and on a 2004, $32.3.

i was naively hoping that rolling into a rainy Puget Sound winter i'd either be able to get an '05 for under MSRP or a 2004 for not much above invoice.

if there is a more appropriate sub-forum to test this - please let me know.

if not would love to get some insights from folks who have recently purchased...

cheers

I have an '04. I got my mine back on 10/14/03 for $32.5K Are there any changes w/ the '05?

 

a) where are you actually located?

b) the seattle area is a great place to find expensive S's

 

in seattle.

no change from 04 to 05. given that i can get an '05 for MSRP though, i think a fair price for an 04 has to be $31 or under at this point...

You may want to try Olympic - they quoted me 32950 for a MY05.

 

FastD,
Remember this is an internet quote. Thanks.

 

My local dealership is at $33,465 for '05......and they said they could find me a 'New' 04 in my color (Red) @ $33,290. I told them 'No' on both counts.....and an even bigger NO at the '04 price...... I am focusing my looking on finding an older model (cherry + low mileage) for a whole bunch less. In fact, I am looking real hard at a '00 Red with 4,024 miles. It's only a little over 4,000 miles away, so I am getting shipping bids to see if it's worth my while. I have already had a friend view, drive & critique this car.......he said he spent an hour on hands and knees + driving it, desperately trying to find any kind of a flaw, no matter how minor. The word is FLAWLESS and not a single scratch.....even underneath like it just came from the factory. If the dealership was more reasonable on the '04.....say like about $31,000, I may have been more interested (and alot of that interest is spelled...w.a.r.r.a.n.t.y

 

the best i have now is $32,465 for a 2005 which is $1000 under MSRP.

i have not yet recieved a sensible offer for a "new" 2004 - it would have to be $30k or even less now i am thinking to make this worthwhile.

thanks for the input all

S2000s are expensive up here, new or used. You can order one in CA for under invoice, and spend the difference on a nice vacation as you drive back up. There was a guy in the Bay Area offering '04s for under $31K, I think I recall.

 

I have a 2004 S2000 black/black w/1700+ miles. Thinking of selling it for a more pratical car.

Let me know if you are serious in buying a S2000.

Located in Port Orchard, WA

Thanks,
