It's a red '00 private sale with 28,000 kms on the odo. A For Sale sign been in the window for over 6 months (saw it in the fall and again this spring - no winters). Guy bought it 3 yrs ago from Florida and has since put 12K on it. Paint is a mess - even the swirl marks have swirl marks. Back window looks like it's never been properly cleaned. Original back tires need to be replaced.

Here the bottom line: $29,500 Canadian

I figure even with the low mileage it's worth $25K tops.

 

waaay too much... try about $22k-$24k... its an import (so technically it *should* be cheaper than domestically bought behicles) AND it isn't mint

 

From the way you described the owner's care for the car I don't even want to look at it. Obviously this is the reason why the For Sale sign has been on it for 6 months already.

 

Yeah, the same thing has been going through my mind. What else could be wrong with the car. (But those swirl marks can be buffed out, right ) If I'm serious about this, Honda will be hoisting it up to get a peek.

OSC: I thought that price might be high. I was really suprised to see such a beauty of a car with sucky paint.

 

i suggest to get a mechanic to check it out for piece of mind... on autotrader.. 00s are going for about 26k-28k (canadian S2000s)

are the service records available as well?

 

When I asked him about maintenance, he said he didn't have to do anything to the car. I said, 'What about oil?!?' he reply, 'I get that done at an oil and lube shop.' Ummmm, yeah.

What work does the maintenance schedule call out for between 10K and 23K?

 

Too much!

 

no way

 

waaay too much.. don't investigate further until he/she lowers the price to at least $25k .

 

Thanks for replies everyone. I'll post back after my test drive (it'll be my 1st time driving/riding in an S).

BTW: this site is alright.
