Don't forget you'll have to replace the tyres, They are too old to be fit for use on a performance car,
I paid A$30,000, [cars are a bit more expensive in Oz], for a 2001 S2k, about 20 months ago, because it had only 27,000Km on it, [about 16000 miles]. Most of this was in the first few years, with about 100Km per year for the last 5 years.
I changed all fluids, & the tyres, & have now put a further 15000Km on it. I know I will loose more on this when I sell it, but it is nice to own a near new S2k, & have trouble free motoring.

Depends on the dealer. Service departments vary quite a bit. That's precisely why I skip the 4 closest Honda dealers and only use the 5th closest (when needed).
It is a normal car and you can certainly use the standard pricing guides as a starting point.

Fair price is between $22k-$25k, although, as someone mentioned, the "premium" for a car having 10K less is hardly $1K these days, so do the math.
A 1-owner, well maintained/spotless '04 S2K with 20K miles goes for <$20K, so I'm not sure that I would want to pay $5K+ for the value of a (virtually indestructible) VTEC engine having <1K miles in it.
I feel that $22K-$23K is probably top price for a private buyer.

Miles are one thing, you just add them to a car with time. Its still an 8 year old car and the 06+ models offer improvements for the money.
$20-22k is about where I'd cap myself in an auction.
