Default How hard is it to find....

a 2005 New Formula Red S2 right now?

Im actually planning to buy one in April/May--But Ive heard from a few people that a NFR S2K is near impossible to find and that I may have to be on a waiting list for more than half a year! I talked to a dealership, and all he would tell me was 'Come in and lets talk about it, Im sure that I can find you one.' But we all know dealers are full of BS.

I mean, I HAVE to have a car by April/May or else its bus pass time for me... So just wondering from your experiences, did you have to wait for your S?

None of the dealers around here have one right now... And Ive read stories on other forums about waiting lists. I hope youre right or Im going to be one sad, dumb girl who didnt think ahead.

i know jeff personally. he did some work (differential swap) on my car in pouring rain just to keep his word that it would be done by that night. i have not seen that type of dedication in a long long time. him and his crew get a big from me

good luck on your S search

I found the AP2 I was looking for in one phone call. I am sure you can find yours with a little work.
The easiest way I have found, is to do a search on http://www.autotrader.com
Good luck!
