would you buy an S2K w/100k miles?
Hi,
First post...for those of you who have done this or have a lot of miles on your S2000, is it worth it to buy a 2000 S2000 with 100k miles? Honda's Honda, I know, but I don't know many people who have done this since the car hasn't been out that long. I currently have an 05' black RSX Type-S with 19k miles (yeah, stupid, I know). I want a speed upgrade, but am not sure if it will be considerable enough to justify trading up/down depending on how you look at it.
I live in Louisiana, how much, if at all would you pay for a used S2K with 100,000 miles?
Thanks for the input.

And no I wouldn't buy an s2k with that many miles. I wouldn't buy any car with that many miles unless it was a beater.

With that said, you should keep the RSX for a while.

And of course whenever you look at a used car you should always ask to see the maintence records.
If I had the choice of a car with 100k properly maintained and one that was 30k properly maintained. I'd pick the 30k, everytime.
But I'm sure a properly maintained f20c would last a long time, 200k+. I would just want that extra 70k for myself.
