After a few weeks of shopping around I found my S. It's a 2002 Sebring Silver on lovely red leather. The owner had it for 6 months and only put 1400 miles on it. Garage kept, never been rained on, showroom mint! Beautiful! I can't wait to pick it up next week. I paid $28,600. That was more than I had intended to pay when I started looking, but local '00 models were asking $25,800, so I figured it was worth the extra cash for an '02. Can't wait! Thanks Dave!

The owner was very cautious with it, and broke it in properly too. It's like I'm buying one from the dealership, but it's already broken in for me! The owner was encouraging me to get it on the big cam on our test drive. I happily obliged. The sad thing is the S is slower than the car I'm selling to get it... my 2000 supercharged Civic Si. Anyone looking for a blown Si in the VA area?

Your supercharged Si does low 14s?

No, it doesn't do low 14's... geesh. It does high 13's. I've saddened many a S2000 owner. Now I'll be the sad one. No more racing the local street kids, because I'll be the one losing... well, probably not. But there's a few turbo hatches around that I'd hate to run up against.

Sounds like a good deal, 6 months and only 1400 miles, something must have been wrong with current owner.

It may not be as quick as your SC'ed SI, but you will have 10 times the enjoyment in the S2K! RWD feels so good on the curves. You will become a much better driver.
