You have to becareful if you are buying that one, might be imported
White wasn't offered in Canada until 2003.

A '00 GPW will DEFINITELY be a US car.

BTW, I sold my S2K and bought an '02 WRX wagon (needed a cheaper car). Worse thing I ever had to do.

I miss the S every day.

Nothing wrong with importing, you just lose warranty but since it's 00 there isn't one anyways

Just do a carfax on it

^ Agreed.

I'd NEVER buy a used/imported car from Quebec.

Carfax doesn't tell you shit. It only pulls info that has been reported.

If it's not reported how is carfax going to know?

Hi toosteeley !! I saw you on TSC !!

The white S2000 is a car imported from the US as an accidented car but I am not buying it. It is a friend that owns it and he wanted to trade but I don't really want to do a straight trade for mine. I will wait a little bit and look for good opportunity.

I think I would go with a red one, or yellow... or white !! I like them all !

They pull from different sources, yes the owner can lie when they register the car but if someone down the road writes down the truth then it will stick out.

If I smash up my car at the track then fix it myself where would they get that info?
