It is an 07 Silver, all black interior with 53,301 miles (had I should say it came with dual tip Greddy ti system, alpine deck, cd changer, custom black 7? spoke rims I haven't checked the brand yet but they are definitely not stock and they have Potenza RE760 Sport tires, Spoon rear view mirror, K&N Intake, black S2000 emblems, spoon engine torque damper that's all I can think of right now for 16,980 but after warranty and taxes closer to 20k, I hope to keep the car forever and hope the value goes up instead of down at some point.
You didn't get the deal of the century by any means but after taxes and everything you paid about what most people would ask for your car if they were selling it so I'd say you did well.

For anyone in the detroit area. I sold my S2K to Honda of Grand Blanc. If you have any questions, feel free to message me. They're asking $16,000. Trust me, they can budge a bit. Just have a garage ready as there's no roof included.

Come on man, you should've parted out the cr parts and sold it with a soft top! You probably would've gotten close the the 15k you were asking when all was said and done!

I had no parts to replaced the parts I'd sell. Even if I did sell the CR front/Tonneau/Wing. I'd have to source out an AP1 bumper, full soft top assembly, new vinyl top, new center console. I'd only have an extra $1000 after it's all said and done. Plus weeks/months trying to find these parts at a reasonable price. I don't live near any S2K owners so most likely I'd have to drive 3-5hrs to bigger cities or pay for shipping. So perhaps less than $1,000. The $15k price was a bit of a stretch. Realistic, I'd should get $13k for it given it's history and setup. The $12k I got from the dealer wasn't too bad. And I got a good deal on a new 2016 Civic EX-T. The S2K was fun, but I can always come back to it later and find a real CR that holds value to look for a well priced Lotus/NSX.

2008 Berlina Black | Black (1 of 327 for MY 2008)
136,000 miles
1 owner Florida car serviced at original Honda dealership
Solid service history including 20 factory oil changes (every 4 months...6,000-7,000 miles)
New brakes and rotors - 96,500 miles
New transmission - 123,000 miles

The owner clearly enjoyed driving the S2K logging 20,000 each year. The photos look great. I've read the "high mileage S2K" threads here...no worries buying a high mileage S2K. It is being offered at $15,995. What do you think? Thanks, all.

New tranny? or tranny fluid? not sure why it would need a new tranny at 123,000 miles. but price isnt too bad, maybe a little lower due to mileage but not getting ripped off at $15k

the carfax history noted a NEW transmission...the first transmission had a lot of service completed before they punted and put a new one in. Yes, looks really good.

That's awesome that they're storing it in their showroom (probably because it has no roof ). I bet it's their coolest car too, I mean what do they make now as exciting...nothing (new NSX would be at the Acura dealership). Also for ap2v1's, the best looking stock wheels imo. That's what I'm probably going to be selling my ap1 with shortly when I finally list it.
