Well, the title says it all. I wonder - from your experience guys - what would be the price difference if I waited selling my S2000 until spring? The car is garaged and I drive my other car anyways. On the other hand if I wait I will have to pay insurance and registration for a few more months. Opinions? Thank you!

 

In my opinion, just post it up now for the price you want. If nobody bites for a while, who cares, someone will eventually come along. Craigslist is free anyway

 

Cancel all but comprehensive insurance, turn in the plates, and sell it in the spring.

 

It depends on your location.

Well, it may be too late. I listed it on ebay last week - 2005 NFR near mint with hardtop. I have had a number of cars in the past: BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Porsche etc. S 2000 still feels special to me - not the fastest, but extremely reliable, honest, maybe the last "analog" sports car, it makes me feel younger and they don't make them anymore. Too bad...

 

Oh, and if most my cars in the past felt like an appliance, I understand why some people call S2000 "my baby".

 

Why are you selling it ? It sounds like you really love the car.!

Many are the ones in the. . . "I regret ever selling my S2000" category.

 

Agreed. Horrible idea, you'll see . Sold my first S, bought another one, hated it and sold it within 40 days (not it's fault), and bought another stock mint low-mileage 01. Keeping it. Bought and sold a GPW right after buying my Silverstone . Hated to move it but it was bought to flip and not quite as clean as my 01 (but still a very clean GPW/Black interior with 39k miles on it...

If you still have it, keep it or waste time buying another later. You'll wish you had it back within a week...

 

The S2000 has been my "fun car" for the last 2 years. Then I bought a used, Porsche Carrera this spring. It was an impulse buy followed by buyers remorse.
Yes, the P-car may be a little better, but twice as expensive and overall I would say that the fun factor is about equal esp. with the top down. The P-car is faster, but the shifter feels rubbery with long, deliberate throws and I run into several maintenance problems, on top on possible RMS leak and IMS bearing failure which may make the engine explode. On the other hand my S2000 is absolutely trouble-free and still under extended warranty. Anyhow, after a few months of meditation I decided to sell my S2000 and pay off the P-car. After all I don't need 3 cars - my DD is MB C63AMG.
