I'd be worried about a Honda rebuilt by Nissan fursonally.

S2000's are not rare enough you have to deal with something like that

The S2000 is the best car I've ever owned. I first fell in love with it test driving a used one at an Audi dealership. I went there thinking I wanted an S4 and left knowing I wanted an S2000. I soon after bought a 2006 Laguna Blue Pearl S2000 with 6k miles on it from a Ford dealer. Some old guy traded it in on a Bullitt Mustang. It looked brand new. I drove it home from North Carolina to Kentucky with the top down the whole way and got the worst sunburn of my life. The car turned my commute through a bunch of winding horse country roads into the highlight of my day. In 2009, Science of Speed announced their supercharger kit and I was one of their first customers. While I was waiting for the kit to arrive, I saw a S2000 CR still sitting new on the lot at a dealer in Indianapolis. Given that it had been sitting there for a year, they were very motivated to sell. With visions of a new road track opening nearby, I ended up trading in the S2000 and buying the CR and supercharging it instead. The car's a loving rocket and a blast to drive, but the recession killed the track, and for a daily driver I really miss the light stock clutch and the soft top. Now I live in CA and the SOS supercharger isn't CARB legal. The car's been sitting in my garage undriven for the past year. It only has 13,000 miles on it. I live near a bunch of good tracks, and I have a trailer and a truck to tow it with, but the reputable organizations running track days require a roll cage for convertibles and my heart's just not in tearing the thing apart. I've been thinking about selling it. If I could trade it and get my non-supercharged, CA-legal '06 LBP back I think I would in a heartbeat. All the ones I've seen have been badly molested. There's my somewhat sad S2000 story. Convertibles rock. Buy them and drive them every day. gently caress hard tops. And I realized that in the two years I owned the '06 I apparently took no pictures of it. What the hell. I have one lovely cell phone pic at the dealer the day I did the trade, and I didn't even get it fully in frame.

I went there thinking I wanted an S4 and left knowing I wanted an S2000. You'd be surprised how quickly you get used to the extra power once you boost the S. Mine just became my daily driver again and hit 100k (last 50k under 10 psi), two days later my supercharger started making noise. I pulled it off and having it worked on now. But man, it feels sooooo slow. I can't wait to get the blower back.

It seemed like they just needed that last little push (and funding for it) and it would be a cool track. I was excited for this back when I lived in Cincinnati and Mid Ohio was 3 hours away.

That suxxx. I'd think really hard about buying the membership if they were open. I'm pretty sure living in Louisville I am the furthest away from any road courses you can be pretty much anywhere in the US.

You're probably right and that's why I'm leaning towards selling it, but clearly the real solution is to just move out of California... Elwood P.

What are AP1s worth these days? There's a black one in reasonably good shape with 82k miles near me for 12 grand. I hate [keeping] black cars [looking nice] but it seems like a decent value if I could get him to 11. Edit: N< car was advertised as having a clean title; it doesn't. blk fucked around with this message at 19:32 on Jul 1, 2014 |

It wasn't in perfect condition but pretty drat good for the miles. I think 12 grand is pretty close to bluebook, if you care about that.

AP1s are on an upswing in price for near perfect condition, I bought mine for <10k with 99kmi and they're ~13 with 130kmi right now.

Do these increase in price in the summer months (in areas which have a winter) due to a higher demand, or is there actually no difference at all?

Nice. Is that an AP2 with a CR front end? Since the CR didn't come in LBP, I have to ask, did you get it painted yourself? Very cool.

http://eugene.craigslist.org/cto/4701319761.html This is right next door to me. I know the color is rare and a hardtop is nice, but drat, that's Elise territory on pricing. I hate it when people try to pass on the cost of their stupid mods. Edit: Turns out I've met the seller before, he works at the local Subaru dealership and has commented on my 92x. Maybe I can talk him into sanity. blk fucked around with this message at 04:49 on Oct 7, 2014 |
