Anyway, LOL, find out about that car and see if he can shoot a short walk a round video of it and then LMK.
Agreed...I too wanted GPW at one point but you're right, the color is not worth the premium that they are asking. I will let you know as soon as he responds.

Thanks again!

2002-2003 are EXACTLY the same.

Found an 02 with about 63k on it. Carfax shows up clean, 2 personal owners both drove it about 7k miles a year. Limited pictures but seems clean and all stock. Has a factory hardtop. Priced at about $13k. Calling on it tomorrow. Too good to be true?!

I found a 2004 S2000 with 94XXX miles. Dealer is asking 15,500, but has no service records. Just from my first look I know it needs a battery, 90,000 mile service, front and rear rotors/pads. I am thinking with 94xxx I should also have the front and rear suspension done. I am getting a PPI and compression test to see if anything else comes up. I think $15,500 is fair if they do all the work or around $13,000 without it. Does that sound reasonable?

These are general values but they give you an idea of what I've been finding in the area, I do live in Tampa however..
Take a look at this one bro, 2004 NFR with 69k miles for $13k

That sounds pretty horrible and I dunno if you like the AP1's but there are a few in Miami with under 50,000 miles for $14k

And noogin, don't tell him that, I am looking at that one lol

I'm having trouble finding the color and price range for me... I never wanted a blue one but what do you guys think of this?

It's in my price range easily and it doesn't look half bad

2008 Grand Prix White Honda S2000
70k Miles
Few rock chips and small scuffs/scratches
Red/Black Interior w/ minor wear
One Owner w/ clean title
New Tires
Bone stock

Asking for $20,000, should I bite? I am a bit worried that it has a lot of miles, but I know Honda has a reputation for running a long time. Thanks for input!
