Default Going to purchase a s2000...

Hey everyone, so at the end of this month I've decided I'm going to purchase a used ap2 s2000, but there are some questions and concerns that I have. I've decided to purchase a used one because I've found some 2004 and over models priced around low 20's to mid 20's which seems pretty reasonable to me. I know that Honda's are reliable, and owners of a s2000 would want to keep their car in good condition, but then I take into account that the previous owner probably beat the sh!t out of it on the road or track. Do you think that is somethign to be concerned about?

Also here are two links of s2000's I found on autotrader

Link 1

Link 2

Is it me or is the s2000 in the first link dropped?

Thanks again everybody!

Both of those cars are nice.
If I were spending that kind of coin, I would want a Honda Certified Car,
which come with a fat factory warranty, like 5 years or 100K miles.

You probably can get an aftermarket warranty with either of these two cars, but I would stick w/factory warr, so you can service it at any Honda dship.

By the way, both of those are nice cars. It's hard to beat 9kmiles! Personally, I prefer the silver over silverstone, and they both have the killer red int!

Looks like fun to me!!!!

Lastly, have you considered looking for a leftover 2007 new from a dealer? I hear they can be had for approx. 26.5K. Better interest rate, NEW car!!!!

You only live once, so enjoy the ride

I would think that both of those cars that you linked are a little overpriced. My '07 with 16k miles on it is for sale for $25.8k, slightly less than that 2006 that you listed. I would recommend either looking for a leftover '07, or looking for a better price on the used ones.
