Alright, My friend Todd just traded his 2001 s2000 for a 2000 Civic SI. Even Trade!
Car specs:

s2000:
2001
160k
Silvertone w/ Red & Back interior
100% stock
softop in rough shape
everything working fine

Civis SI:
2000
SI Blue w/ base model interior, back seat and flooring stripped out.
175k body/80k motor
Slammed
Rims
Stock engine+intake and unknown exhaust

Now, Todd was trying to tell me what a smart trade he made, how much more this car was worth, and how quickly he could get rid of it if he wanted.

Then I asked him how he gets that information based off of the fact that he just traded basically the #1 Honda in Demand (the s2000), for the most common one ever produced.

Anything you wanna say, go for it.

Doesn't seem like a great trade unless the S2k was beat, and the Em1 was mint. However the Em1 is hardly the most common "one" ever produced. They are fairly sought after, and for a clean, clean title, car, they pull in some decent cash.

s2k was perfect other than the softop was looking alittle rough and the driver seat had average driver wear. I ment the civic in general as being the most common honda, not the Em1. It in and of it self looks very clean. but no rear interior and has an engine swap as well as the civic body has 15,000 more miles on the body than the s2k.
