[B]good luck on selling that car...

 

Thank you all for your insightful responses. This has to be one of the best online communities around.

I have now dropped my price down a bit but still no action.

I did however take my car down to Carmax this weekend and they're offering me more than blue book trade in for my car. Actually about $1500.00 more than kbb trade in value. They said due to the super clean condition, crystal clear window w/no scratches, and over 75% tread left on my S02's they can offer a bit more because they know the car was cared for and they wouldn't have to do much for resale.

I will sadly be taking my car to Carmax this Saturday if no private parties are interested.

Thanks again for all the help.

Unless you really need to unload it now, why not ask Carmax if they would guarantee the price for at least another week. Sometimes it takes a few days before any bites occur.

Mama should have told you cars make shitty investments. I hope you bought it for fun and not for profit.

A reasonable price is what one is willing to pay. Right now I'm guessing mine's worth $20K tops. It will settle out at about $15-16 in another couple of years and not drop down much below that level. That's the "true value".

 

Not only for S2000's, but I've seen Corvettes and BMW Z roadsters going for rock-bottom prices. I just looked at an '02 Corvette convertible with 4K miles, and they were only asking for $32K. That is absolutely low!

 

as previously mentioned it's a good time to buy a used car for anyone with cash on hand...just check out what 25k or so will buy in the ferrari market...or a pretty damn good lambo espada....i'd almost rather have a 308 for a while for the same money as an s2000...

 

This is an interesting post as I am in the exact OPPOSITE position as you; I'm in the market to BUY an S2000, but unfortunately there doesn't seem to be too many white s2000's around.

 

Same here. And the best price I've found around here is an '01 with 30k for $24,998. It's in great condition and has the front/rear spoilers and strakes and does still list for $2k less than KBB used retail in this area but from reading this it sounds way high.

 

the rear glass window alone is worth 2g IMO, and plus the minor upgrades 03 offers, it will be more than 3500

drop your asking price a bit and it might help...Good luck!
