the suspension must be totaly screwed... look at the front tires... the one on the drivers side is slightly turned out and the one on the pass side is stright. I would guess something under there is bent badly or broken.

If it could have been repaired at a cost effective price, it would have been. I suspect frame/suspension damage would total out an s2k fairly quickly.

but it stills consider a frame. s2000 has a excellent x-frame monocoupe.
I would be carefull about using this engine because I suspect it has frame damage. look at the images bellow. most of the $$$ you are paying for the s2000 are the engine and transmission. I would have a qualify mechanic/mechanical engineer to look at the car prior purchase. This crashed mights cause some unwanted vibrations/damage to some parts of the engine. Buyers beware.

Id take it just for spare parts. Then Id just rev mine to 9k and not worry about blowing the motor since Ill have a backup
but what you didnt know is that an over rev is what caused the crash
