Buying an S2000 this week. Help me decide~please~~
I narrowed it down to 5 cars.
1. 2002 S2000 with 77,000miles for $13,500 ish
2. 2000 S2000 with 65,000miles for $14,000-$14,200 ish (with glass window)
3. 2000 S2000 with 58,000miles for $15,000 (with glass window)
4. 2001 S2000 with 49,000miles for $15,000ish
5. 2000 S2000 with 72,000miles for $12,500ish
------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't care about the color anymore and I can't go check out each car because they are all 3-4 hours from me. I'm just gonna pick one, go check it out, and buy it on the spot.
#3 and 4 are unlikely because those would leave me with no money. #5, I can't buy it until the owner comes back this weekend but I'm planning on buying a car this week ASAP so I don't think I can wait that long.
Which one is the best deal???
please help me decide..I am very indecisive..help quick~!!

i honestly would not buy it on the spot. that's not the best idea... do you not have friends in the area to check it out for you? pictures are deceiving. also i wouldn't buy a car i haven't driven. just choose one to check it out dude, the one you feel would be most worth it! then decide there if its worth buying or not. there will be more cars 
personally i'd go 2002.

The best deal is going to be the car in the best condition with a documented maintenance history. A few thousand miles or dollars here or there is not as important as the condition and history of the car.
That said, the glass window 2002 is preferred, all else being equal.

The mileage differences mean less as long as the car has been properly maintained and serviced as recommended.
You can also always offer slightly less and see if they go for it.
Choice #1 would be mine assuming that the car is in good shape and was maintained well.
As others have said, the maintenance history is key.
Just look at all five cars and find out as much inf on their history as possible (previous owners, accidents, maintenance, etc).
Good luck,
Craig
