I've been lurking around for about a month now and I think I might finally be caving for my own s2000

I might be picking up a used 2005 Silverstone S2000 in the next few days. I'll be trading my 2006 Civic Si for it.

What are some things I should look out for with this particular year/model on the car?

TSB's..
Recalls..
etc...

Thanks in advance!

 

Really, this has been gone over countless times. Try a search, read the FAQs and see if you have some specific questions.

It's kind of a strange thing to try and search for..I tried it..If you can point me in the right direction please do so.

 

"Used Car Buying Tips" yielded a lot of results. If you sift through all the "Car Fax" links you will find many threads with tons of useful information

 

2nd gear synchro gring on ap1

 

2000-2003 are AP1s. A 2005 won't have AP1 specific problems.

2004-2005 are AP2 and very similar. Look for info on these.

2006-2009 are also AP2 but have VSA and drive by wire.

Check the FAQs and other stickys in S2000 Talk and Under the Hood. I read all of it before buying when I was shopping a couple months ago.

 

here, check out this thread, very comprehensive listing of what to look for.

Thanks for all the info!

I'm going to go back to the dealership tomorrow and test drive and inspect the whole thing again.

btw, kwasley...your sig is one of the funniest things I've heard in awhile.
