I don't think so...not for a 05. 61k miles is not that high.

This is the s2k I'm looking to buy. I was wondering what a reasonable price other than that already stated would be (15.9k). Also, 61k miles okay to go with? I know that Honda's are really reliable but I wanted to get some other opinions. Thanks.
I paid the exact same for the same mileage and model year. I got it through Carmax though, and they do a thorough check and give you a history report for free. Check all the basics and history of the car, and you should be ok as long as there are no red flags.

Prices vary widely due to season, location, and market demand.

i would look for one with lower miles, under 20k/mi preferred....you can find it. trouble is, you're just coming into your convertible season up in jers, and prices are up. the seats! the top! the tires! these are pricey, so make sure they are in top condition...

I actually test drove this car the other day. It's only a few blocks from my apartment, so I figured why not.

A few things to be known...
This car has been on their lot for a while now, I'd say about 6 months. I drive past this dealer almost every day, and I can recall the car being there a long time.

Also, the paint is pretty bad. Not only does it have tons of swirlmarks, but there are scratches all over it. A bunch of scratches on the trunk lid.

Aside from that, the car drove pretty well, though it definitely feels like it needs new brakes.

Either way, if my car sells in the next few days, I might pick that car up, though I don't know if I can deal with another black car.

My wifes G35 is black. Love it when it is clean, hate it when it's not.
