Hi y'all,

I been wanting a S2k since 2001 or so, when ever it is when I joined S2ki. Haven't had the chance in the past due to overseas assignments, deployments, or just not financially ready.

Now I am living back in the states and financially sound. Plus, my wife and I are looking to start trying for our first baby next month. Therefore, I want to get the S2k in the next few months. I think it'll be really hard for me to find the funding after doing all of my investments/rent/utilities to buy another toy after having a kid. Currently have 8 vehicles, all paid off.

This car has been on craigslist since Nov. Started out at $14k or above. Been at $13.2k for the past 7 weeks. There isn't a huge market for convertibles here in Ohio since there is lots of snow.

I really want a 2003 GPW, but I guess 2002 works as long as the plastic window isn't messed up. It will be mainly for trackdays (maybe future race car) and for canyon carving. May drive it for DD in the summer.

What do you guys think? Price to high? Wanted to get some inputs before driving an hour or so to check it out. What would be a good price and what would be a bargain price? There are other S2k in the 50 mile radius with similar mileage and price but they aren't what.

Thanks,
Frank

From craigslist:

"The white with red leather S2000 is the rarest color combo to see on the road and trust me, it turns heads! Only 67k. Mint condition. Stock as Wallstreet, never been toyed with at all. The car has always been garaged. Never been in any accidents, in fact there are only a couple rock chips on the car. $13,200, no low balling please, ive had enough of that already. The car is beautiful and in flawless shape."
