in the usa, calif.... i paid for a 04 model in November 03 close to $32,000 plus tax and license which is about 9% on top of that. I had a trade so I had to negociate that in to the deal..and i had seen S2000's for $5,000 over sticker, mine had a $4998 "dealer pak" on top of the sticker price, which I did not even discuss, it was just not in the deal...
I paid about $1250 less than sticker and I felt like i got a good deal at that time. Prior to that time you could not negociate on S2000's as each dealer only received a few of them and they were the most expensive car Honda sold at the time.

I got my 2007 with 4800 miles on it for $21,300. Though OTD with registration, tax and the 100k mile extended warranty I purchased brought it up to $24,100.

I was in Israel last year and I asked my cousins that live there what my car would cost. Their reply was easily 240k sheckles which converted into dollars would be around 70k(that's freakin' Z06 money over here). That's more than double than here in the states. They think I'm rich by owning that car...They need to come to the US to see what rich people in So Cal really drive...
I'm in So Cal and the price of the S is a little more than in some of the midwestern and/or northeastern states would offer since it's nice and sunny most of the year here. I went in there knowing what I wanted to pay...32k on the dot(which is invoice). After tax and registration it would be 35K more or less. Bargained with the salesman for nearly a week and came down to 35,500 total OTD. I figured I'd give him the $500 extra above invoice because he was actually a good salesman(I've recently come across and very bad salesman in another dealership that did business in a dirty way on top of that he was the sales manager and was severely disappointed by his methods). So I paid $500 over invoice by choice for my S.
