Black cars are way too difficult to maintain, my OCD makes it where it drives me nuts. They look great clean and detailed, but in my experience that only lasts one drive.

i think both cars are overpriced, personally I do not like the '08 wheels as much as the AP2 either.

 

I'm going to see this car on Saturday looks basically brand new, had my mind set on an AP2 but I might consider this. Anything special to look for? Thoughts on the price?

thanks!

 

provided the valve retainers are all good and compression checks out and it isn't a salvage, then, giddyup!

Look for a late model year production in '02.

Could be a great find, I hope everything meets your expectations.

$20k? What.

 

20k is kinda steep, but it looks like a good buy.

 

Its priced right id say. where else are you going to find one? I mean, that little of mileage will eventually be unheard of and you will pay considerably more in the future. There is an 05 for sale someone is looking at in the forums with 63k miles I believe asking $27! Now that is overpriced.

 

It could use a good detail, but looks clean from the pictures (of course they can lie). Worth checking out.

 

I agree.
The 08'
Curbed wheels is no big deal either - can get repaired cheap. The new soft top alone is worth going with the 08'.
I personally don't think the 05 is all that over priced though.

 

Really? The more im looking, the 05's around the same mileage are going in the range of $19-$22k.
Some S2KIs users have shared buying a like condition and color scheme S2K for around $19k. "How Much did you pay for your USED S2000?" - Cartalk thread.

Mr. Funk, mind sharing what are some of your factors that contribute to the fair value of the 05 S2?

Thanks again everyone for all your insight and comments. Already learning a bunch here.
