Ok, cool thanks for the help. It's a one owner and not auctioned. They are asking $28,990, assuming all is well what would be a fair offer to start with and where should I stop?
The time it's been sitting on the lot and your geographic location will play a part, especially this time of year. Kelly, Edmunds and NADA are close in their numbers, which are a bit higher than what the dealership is asking. Certification typically adds $1K give or take. I highly doubt they will let it go for $26K unless they're desperate.

Jeez, S2000 prices are all over the place. I have an 02 with maybe ~70k I'm going to sell. Any suggestions? I was thinking $12k to start? 11k realistically?

I was looking at an 02 suzuka blue with 129k miles. Two owners but the last owner was an older guy (in his 60s i was told) that works at a dealership's body shop. They want about 9000. I think the mileage is a bit high and so is the price. I drove the car and it's nice...only thing i could notice was the notchy feeling while shifting to 2nd or 3rd. Maybe i need to get used to the gearbox? Anyways...what do you guys think? I'd appreciate your opinions!

How about an 08 with salvage title but with only 13k miles? A rear quarter panel and the rear suspension assembly was replace. Claims no frame damage.

that is for sure the OEM sat antenna and it will for sure leave 2 holes in your trunk lid if you take if off. Open the trunk and look in the center, do you see that big brass Nut, yep! thats how its mounted.

I missed out on a GPW but found a black one. I'm going to go check it out tomorrow.

2000
42K miles
The seller is asking $13.5k
Rear tires were replaced 8K miles ago, unknown the front.
The front end was backed up into but seller told me it was repaired.

The seller says he is the third owner, but when I pull up a carfax report, it shows 5 owners. Can you guys help me decipher the carfax reading on this since I'm wondering now if i need to be careful since the seller said he was the third owner.

What would be the fair price? $12K?

I would rather have a newer year for around 12-13K. Heck, I think i'd rather have newer year with similar mileage than a older year with a lower yearly average.

Anyone deal with auctions much? I was wondering what the going average for a AP1 was right now. Looking to buy my S here in the next month and planning on getting it from an auction.

Thanks
