Well first buy the car and do research for the wheels. Goodluck and congrats if you get the car.

I can go take out a loan on my car and it will be reported as a lien, does not mean there is a problem. Just do a good job going over it and MAKE The dealer give you a WE OWE allowing you 1 week to drive the car for Discovery of any possible issues. I worked at a Honda dealer 7 years. Just do a good thorough inspection and have it looked over by a local S2000 shop as not many Honda dealers have techs that know anything about this car.

Being bone stock does not mean it was always bone stock so check the bolts and nuts under the hood to see if they are marred from taking stuff off and on.

An aftermarket exhaust is going to void your certified warranty unless its a shady dealership and doesnt report it to hondat. The tires not being stock bridgestones isnt a big deal with certification but all 4 have to match... but the wheels have to be stock. S2ks dont come with chrome wheels as you mentioned before. Can you post a link for this car somewhere? I'll check it out and see whats up

I dont know why they would do the when the stock ap2 wheels look so much better and are bigger lmaooo ohhh well That cars suspension is setup for an inch taller n wider wheel than whats on it lol Dumbb move by the previous 5 owners lol The car isnt supposed to be certified with that exhaust at all. I doubt theyre going to call you back considering the car is advertised for $22300 and youre offering $19k. They havent had the car on their property too long so will probably hold off and wait for another buyer thats willing to pay more than you are but thats upto them. At my store we advertise aggressively online with low prices to make sure you contact us vs other stores and we dont budge off advertised prices more than a couple hundred and thats about it.
