Ebay says it's one of those electric-powered S2000s

So I'm confused, it looks like a theft recovery, based on the door damage, then someone in Canada bought it, installed an engine, and repaired all the damage?

I'd report the seller here to whomever you can. Private or dealer, I feel like authorities should be made aware that this person is knowingly attempting to defraud somebody.

 

I believe he's back within the next 2 weeks. But don't hold me to that.

I do know he's here before the end of November.

 

here's the original post from the first owner...

At least he should of said he replaced the motor....he told me 59km all original and the body got repainted because of the scratches from shipping from new york...lie etc. lie ect.

 

I did nothing wrong and can't stand internet smartasses....

That car has it's original powertrain and original cluster with original mileage (as far as I know from the cluster that was in the car when I got it)... the ebay ad for the mileage was apparently a typo as per the seller... do a carfax and see that the last reported mileage was 6800 miles in September of 2002.

I worked out a deal with the ebay seller and gave him a powertrain so I can keep the original in the car... all VIN tags are on the motor and tranny...

The car was never claimed to have been damaged in shipping... I declared that the car was painted, that's all that was ever mentioned... all that was replaced was the outer door skin and the trunk lid which I SHOULD HAVE declared but didn't.... because to me this possible buyer was just wasting my time... he wasn't serious at all... and then I added the rims and lip....

"type-j" was upset because he wanted to trade in his "IRREPAIRABLE/Parts only" Integra GSR towards it, and was expecting $8000 for it... and that's where our arguments started...

I have sold 20+ Canadian and American S2000s in the past two years and have lots and lots of happy buyers with no problems....I have purchased 169 cars from the USA and have had no problems... EVER!!! Everything is declared... ALWAYS!!

I sold that S2000 to that dealer and assure everyone that there is no "fraud" involved.... Every sticker is present on every panel of the car except for the trunk. It was declared to be painted... It has a clean carfax, no accidents, and is as straight as possible...

Just trying to clear things up....

"type-j", good luck on your purchase, and I have no hard feelings... just know the whole story before posting nonsense....

If you still want to sell your GSR for what it's really worth, let me know

Thanks

 

Good rebuttal! Sounds like a classic case of internet miscommunication and confusion.

 

Should have known it wasn't mint by the price.

As everyone says, you get what you pay for.

An '02 priced under $25k is bound to have issues.

 

It's a 2001 and the only issue for some people would be that it was repainted...

 

^^ The only thing that got me upset was the difference in the mileage....if what you say is true then i apologize for posting this thread....i just thought it was kind of fishy when you said there is no history(which there isn't on the carfax)....anyways, moderator you can delete this thread if you want.

 

yes, please delete... all is well...

 

If you have his #, give him a call Mon or Tues next week. He's back then.
