hi everyone .i dont really no about cars so i just wanna ask some question hope ur guys can help

umm a guy wanna sell me his s2k 2002 for $7500
but it has lil over 100k miles on it
but the car look clean n everythin
n i wll trynna get a pic of it to show ur guy
so u guys think it worth to get it or should i just look for anothre car?
thx for the help!

 

sounds good if its just a lil over 2002 and los depending on how many previous owners it had. Just do a compression test and make sure everything is good i mean for 7500 your not going to get a mint car but dont also buy a lemon

 

 

That's not a bad price at all if there is no major defects. Also a car history would be helpful. If you are not somewhat car savvy, get a buddy to go look at it with you. Where you located? there is probably someone nearby to help.

 

i got the pic on there already

 

im from south carlina
and ya i been tryin to get someone but i dont really no fds the no about cars that much
and i think he is the 2nd owner
i look under the hood ..
it clean n everythin tho
but everyone keep tellin me is alot miles prob wont last longer or stuff like that

 

Take it to your mechanic to get it inspected. It's worth the 200$ or so to avoid any major problems that you cannot identify yourself.

Don't be afraid to buy a Honda with 100K. It's all about how it was driven.. On the other hand, my buddy has a '93 Integra LS with 200K HARDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD miles on it and it still runs beastly.

 

true
but i dont wanna spend 200$ end up not gettin the car tho u no
plus uthink i can lower the price?

 

i doubt it you can lower it because thats a good price for it especially when spring is about 4 weeks away

 

100k miles is not very much...the F20C is a very durable engine.

It just depends on how the car was driven and the maintenance done, though.

 

just bought the exact same car with 71000 miles for 10,000$ . Will need a new clutch but runs like a beast. get the vin # and a 20.00 carfax

 

oh yeah i knew nothing about the s2k...and trust me if it runs well....you WILL NOT regret it....lol I'm still shaken from the thrill ride earlier today. LOL

 

true true./
i think imma get someone look at it !!

 

wat u mean by there!!!???
bout the spring

 

Yeah go get the car checked out if you don't know about cars
Carfax is a waste of money and does not tell you EVERYTHING that may be wrong with the car, because only reported issues or maintenance info is given. Not fully dependable or reliable for something you would pay for. So i would say, take it to a friend or trusted reputable mechanic.

 

these cars go up in value around that time of the year since these are spring summer cars

 

just drive it, with him in the passenger seat. get his permission to safely redline the car, and if nothing blows up you're golden. that's a great price btw, i got my my01 salvage around this time last year for 7500, but it did only have 40k miles.

 

I got my 02 8 months ago for 13K with 72,000 miles. that was when they blue booked for $17,500 but now it went down much more than that. That is a good deal there

 

Seems like a good deal.

 

so do u think a s2k is a good car n it last long?
n do it cost alot to fix if sth wrong wit the car??
if only one no pls help!!!

 

would a s2k cost alot to fix up ?
and wat can i do if the car alrady got alot mileage on it!!

 

If you don't buy it, Let me know where and whos selling it and I'll buy it.. I need a 2nd S as a beater anyway..

 

yes they are not cheap to fix. An S2000 is somewhat of a luxury car. The Insurance is high, no one makes OEM style replacement parts because of the limited run it had. So most of the parts are going to be OEM and pretty expensive. Tries are expensive. Most if not all aftermarket performance parts a very expensive. This car isn't a civic or a accord.

 

sc greenville!!

 

i been lookin at a 2004 rx8 too
wat u think abou thtat car???
