Default 2002 s2k deal?
Do you guys think this deal is worth it. 2002 blue s2k with 22,570 miles for $17,995 from a dealer?

Is it a salvage title? Seems too good from a dealer....check it out for title accidents,etc....carfax mechanics inspection are desired.

Nope it's in its original condition, no salvaged title. Also has remaining warranty left.

Might be wrong, but something doesn't sound right.
Edmunds: Dealer retail=$23,499. Certified=$25,626. I used my zip for NY.
I would do a complete check.

Is the dealer a Ford dealer in Batavia, NY? If so, I think I looked at this car last summer. Does it have Blizzak snow tires on all 4 wheels?

I ran a Carfax and found out that the car was stolen in Texas, and recovered in NY. The dealer played stupid, and said they bought it at auction and didn't know the history.

Something is definitaly wrong with this deal..

yea, something IS wrong here.

21K would be an awesome dealer. With the car being at a dealer AND it being that low, something is wrong. $18K is the normal asking price for 02s that have salvage titles.

remember carfax does not catch everything. make sure all the body panel VIN labels match, too. Honda puts the VIN on all removable body panels.
