Hello guys, I've been a BMW guy ever since i was a teenager and now in the market for used s2000.

My cousin is selling his 02' with 57000 miles for 13000 dollars, is this a reasonable deal? the car is in good working condition

and is the driveshaft noise common in s2000?
is that mean the transmission is troubled?

thanks!

 

Yea thats a really good price, and yes the s2000 is a VERY noisy car. get used to it

 

Can you explain it to further detail. Is it a whine, hum....

 

It sounds like "kahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

it doesn't whine or knock or anything like that..
just a constant "kahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

so the price is good?

thanks for responses guys. appreciated deeply.

 

are you sure that isnt just the engine at WOT?

more like "KAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Price sounds very good to me. I wouldnt sell my 02 with 59k miles for that. But that's because I'm not ready to give it up yet.

 

hahaha i heard the vtec alright and it definitely wasn't "kahhhhh"

vtec so addicting, yea?

 

from a text description its really hard to say what it is. have it checked by a good mechanic.

and the price sounds good.

 

Between what revs does this "kaaaahhhhh"? Or is it constant?

 

any mods to the car?

 

It's a constant sound that doesn't stop.

it's like the car has been stripped like a racing car and actually sounds just like one. the gearbox whine.

and it has intake and exhaust.
