I vote you get an AP1. I might be a bias though..

I might be selling mine in spring. It is in storage now.
It's a 2000 with 32 000 km. I'm the second owner, bought the car 3 years ago with 16 000km. The first owner was an older gentlemen. The car has never seen snow and very rarely rain.

FWD eh? I agree stay away from this one.

While I was shopping for mine last summer I found a few sketchy ones, and I just check autotrader, and saw one that is still up.

Stay away from this one, it had to be in a bad accident, over spray and dents everywhere.

Yeah I thought it was sketchy. kordunas, that's insanely low KMs! I need to start making a list of potential candidates! Maybe February might turn out to be a good time to buy if the right car's there!

yah i know. When I was buying it I couldn't believe it had only 16 000km, but when I checked the history I was assured. Also the local dealer knew the first owner which he traded in the car.

I will possibly sell my 2007 GPW AP2 (black interior) with approx. 40K in the next month or two. I had it shipped over from the states 2 years ago and it's in mint condition. I love this car to death and will miss it dearly.

I need to sell because I might move back to Hong Kong if my job interview is successful in February and will not come back to Canada. Price will be approx $27,500.

PM me if interested. I can send you some recent pics of the car after washing it before storage approx. 3 weeks ago.

Stay away from this one... Last year when I was shopping around for my S in Feb I went and checked this one out....Those guys are a bunch of thiefs at this dealer...it was pretty evident that some paint work was done cause I noticed over spray and the hood colour didn't even match with the rest of the body...yet the guy assured me there was no body work done at all....

Wow and I though my S2K had low km for the year wow! Mine has 33k but its an 03.

I always liked NFR. Looks great.

i dont think there's a good or bad time to buy -- the problem is finding the perfect flawless car (if that's what you want) -- when you see it ... you have to scoop it up.

in the winter you have a little less selection but prices are a little lower too ---- in the summer the other way around ...... but again most s2000's are ones you dont want with a questionable history.

especially if you're looking for a late model year -- i heard that they are less than 50 2007's in Ontario
