Current driving a base rsx 5 speed, so I've been looking around for a s2k, I love the car.... But never driven one, finally came across a very clean looking one with low miles and I'm going to go for a test drive this weekend

Wanted some insight on the price and stuff

It's a 2003 ap1, it's red with 25,400 miles on it and they r asking 18,495, one owner clean car fax , serviced at Honda

Gonna try and post the link... What do u guys think?

I think that is a great price for the low miles. Someone on here was saying he saw a jump in price for the older models as they are beginning to be a "collector" car in sense. Also consider that most ap2's or ap1's with under 50k miles will typically go above 20k for a clean car. If its legit is say go for it, 2003 was one of the better years as all the knots were straightened out with little things like plastic hardtop window ect. Either way if you have the funds, or can get a loan I don't see why you shouldn't snag it.

a Few years back I almost bought a 2001 with 40,000 miles, oem matching hardtop and 5zigen wheels. It was detailed to perfection too, looked better than the Ferrari f430 next to it at the dealership. They were selling it for 17,950 so I think that's a fairly good price.

if you're like most of us, the very first time you drive the s2000:

- you will not believe a car can behave this way
- you will not expect the car to be so much fun, and that's before going top down
- you will be giggling like a little kid
- you will most likely take it home the same day

That is a good deal. I know it seems like a lot to pay for a 10+ year old car, but the miles and service record are great. Sometimes you just have to spend a little for a great return and piece of mind.

I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I were in the market.
