Default Goodbye Genesis Hello S2K!

Hi guys, right now im in a 2013 Genesis Coupe 2.0T and im hoping to sell it and put myself in an S2000. Im going to college next year and was hoping it was going to be cheaper than the genesis and a few other reasons but its all going to come down to what its going to cost to insure! But on to my main question right now i have a Black genesis and every time i see a white one i get mad at myself for not getting white so i figured this time around im going to try for white! But ive been looking alot and was wondering if White AP1's are rare or some sort because i cant seem to find ANY!!! So any i just wanted to know if white AP1's are rare? Thanks for your help!!!

Yes all white s2000s are somewhat rare. They are also on high demand these days and require a premium price. Good luck on your search

"A couple GPW's will pull a premium."

What's the general rule on the GPW premium, when I've been to look at them people seem to think it justifies up to 2k in price difference (which seems really high to me)?

U might have to start a thread in S2000 talk about that subject. It depends on the seller. Some aren't aware that it is a rare color and sell it for what its worth. While others are aware that the color.is in high demand and they put a "markup"on the price. I have seen markups as high as $5k!!!

You want to trade your brand new car in for an AP1? I hope you're not going to college for finance or business.
