I'm thinking of trading my Accord for a S2000 soon. So far I found these 2 cars in 2 dealerships.

1. 00 Silver exterior, red interior with 36K miles. price $20K or

2. 03 Black exterior, black interior with 80K miles. price $17K

According to carfax the 03 model has not been at any service at all. Thats all the info I got. Any opinion guys?

 

i would get the silver one. but the price is a little too high. i got mine for 20k with only 12k on it at the dealer + its black interior.

what year do you have and how long have you had it?

 

i believe theres a supercharged 03 with 30k miles going for 19g's on s2ki.com but it mightve been brought already

 

Im looking at a 2000 model today, 37k on the odometer for 16k.

 

thats a great price but i can only afford monthly payments on a dealership

 

humm i would keep looking, but maybe thats what they go for around LA? .. i picked up my silver 04 s2 for 21.7k at an acura dealer in NJ with 14k the week after christmas.

good luck

Huh??? Going to the dealership is the same as going to the bank to get a loan. The only difference is that the dealership is the middle man. You'd be better off selling your accord outright, then go to the bank and find out how much they will loan you to purchase an S2000, and then buy from a private party!

 

i had the car for about a year now. i bought it when it only got like 12.8k on it i believe. and now its about 13.3k

You forgot that prices are higher in CA

 

go for the 1st one but try to haggle the price down

 

yeah i'm leaning on the 00 model because of the mileage. i am going to finance this so by the time i finish my 5 year loan it will be 2012. how bout the 03 model? is 80K miles already to high for it?

i think they are both a rip hell i got ripped on my 2004 with 34,000 miles it was 21k

Approx. trade-in value for that, in excellent shape, is $21,800.

And if you thought it was a rip, then why did you buy it?

yup, why buy a car to put 1k a year, its a joke, unless its a vintage car. waste of money IMO

 

i remember when i bought my MY00. 32k miles, Mint, Triple black, 18.5k. good deal back then. So cal. almost 2 years ago

 

Neither one of those senarios seem like a good deal at all. If you look around, you can probably buy an 04 with 40k on it for $20k. I just traded my 04 with 20k on it for $19k, just to give you an idea. I only paid $23 for a year ago with 13k on it. Certified too....

OMG, you post on here but you wont pick up your phone when I call

 

yeah....neither of those are good deals AT ALL. Keep looking. Why dont you do a nationwide search. Just drive one home from wherever. They're cheap here in illnoise. Look on auto trader or something. There's an 01 with 17k for $19K and there's a 02 with 22k for $17855!!!!!!! For that price...just come get it and drive it home.
