Default Major Differences between a 00, 01, 02 and 03

I am looking to get a honda s2000.. I had a 2006 Hyundai Tiburon GT however I ended up totalling it a few weeks ago... I was wondering what the major differences were between a 2000 and 2003 s2000 are if any... Basically the price differences between them are only a couple thousand so I was wondering if i should get a 2000 for $18k or spend $23k on a 2003? Any input is appreciated.. Thanks

2000-2001 had plastic rear windows. 2002+ have glass. Not sure if there was also something with tranny problems with the 00, 01? Over all the same car though

this is the third person I've come across on the forums this week who is going from a Tiburon to an S2k, including myself . . .


I'd say you can find an 00-01 for less than 18K, depending on how much mileage you're willing to allow on the car. You can get a 03 for less than 23k too . . . just shop around, you can find some good deals in winter.

From what I've read, there are some minor differences, besides the obvious glass window on the 02+ . . . I believe there is a thread dedicated to this somewhere, do a quick search and you'll find it.

Here's one of those threads: 00-02 year differences

Its up to you to pick the better of the two cars. I would go with the one with lower miles, OR the one thats in better shape. If its beat up, chances are it hasn't been maintained.
