Reminds me of my story back a couple years ago
I saw this really clean Honda civic so I went to test drive. The owner sat in the passenger seat, my friend who came with me sat in the back.
During the test drive, I started off reverse out of this guy's driveway, shift into one, and starts hearing stuff grinding. Neutral and back into first again, same thing happened. Shift into second instead of one, same grinding noise. Then the guy started saying how I broke his transmission and demands $5000 for repair.
Glad my friend was taking random videos in the backseat and caught everything on tape. Cops came, my friend showed the video to the cops, and the guy almost got charged with fraud

Miami is full of shady dealers. I'm confused why you wasted time driving it with the crappy condition it was in. I would have just turned around and went home.
Pm me if you want an s2000 I can find you whatever you want salvage or clean. I have a bb 02 with 35k original miles beyond mint.
