I test drove an 04 two nights ago with only 28k miles. The owner is letting it go for me for $15.5k. Honestly, the car looks brand new and it doesn't even look like it's been seated on. Does it sound like a nice deal?

Saw this on Ebay. Looks like a good deal. Any thoughts?

Yes that is the car.

Based on what folks are saying it should be closer to $12k. I guess I can throw that at them and stick to my guns. It is February after all. I know more and more cars will become available the closer I get to April.
That is very high. I got a steal, but in September I bought a 2001 with 107K miles, in overall excellent condition. It just needed a good interior detailing, wash plus it has a small rip in the top in the usual place and the plastic window is cracked/yellow BUT I only paid $7000 for it. And that included a warranty until 130K. You can find deals out there just keep searching.

That might be tough, but look on Craigslist or autotrader for sale by owner as they will ALWAYS be cheaper than a dealer. Also, the classified adds here have some fantastic deals in it right now.

Hi guys I just picked up an S2000 for $7500. It is black/black with 97k mileages. I drove the car for 200 miles already and everything so far so good. The car in pretty "ok" condition except for the top have some tears and the plastic rear window is faded will most likely need to replaced. There also rock chips on the front bumper but nothing major. The car engine pull very strong. I will try to take some pictures and post it later cuz it dark outside. Was $7500 a good price for it? By the way the car have clean tittle and clean carfax. However the right hand side fender and bumper and headlight were replaced in 2002. Work done by honda dealer and it cost $2000 i have all the paper works. The 2nd owner had the car since 2001 until now so i am going to be the 3rd owner (this is what i like about this car). I am pretty happy with the car so far. I just curious if it was an "ok" deal.

And hi from Houston to every s2k drivers. Great car!!

That is an extremely good deal. I haven't been able to find an 06 let alone an 07 with that low of miles at that price.
