Model Year : 2005
Purchased New: February 2006
Price : $28,500 (with rear spoiler)
Dealer : Marysville Honda
Mileage on pickup : I think 32. The dealer drove it and two others to a local festival in the fall.
Current mileage :22xxx
I sat in a Rio during the previous summers USGP at the Honda tent and bought mine in the dead of winter while she was covered in snow. I didn't bring her home for about two to three weeks while I waited for the roads to be dry and salt free.
On a different note, I picked up my 2010 Accord coupe from the same dealer with 2 miles on the ODO. The car was build on a Wednesday night, arrived at the dealer Friday afternoon and I drove her home Saturday.

Model Year: 2004
Purchased New: December 2003
Price: $32k
Color: Berlina/Black
Mileage on pickup: 6
Current mileage: 103xxx
Was coming from a 99 Civic Si and was looking for a new car in 2001. Really wanted a S2000 (out of price range for me), but went with a WRX instead. In december of 2003 I saw a Honda commercial with the 04 redesign, loved it, went out and got a black one. I wanted a white one, but was not digging the brown interior. Aside from the soft top ripping, car's been perfect. Still on original clutch too.

Great to see so many other original owners. No plans to sell mine as it will always be worth more to me than anyone else. Brought back great memories to see some pics from the Laguna Seca track day back in 2002. That ended up being the first and only track day for this S2000.
Year: 2002
Purchased: December 2001
Price Paid: $32,400 (refused to pay a penny over MSRP)
Current Mileage: 43K
Mods: AEM CAI, factory front lip, iPod adapter
Other than some bolster wear on the driver's seat and a few small dings courtesy of my wife's Q7, it looks new. My only regret is not modding more before kids as now there is always a better use for the money.

Year: 2001
Color: Spa Yellow
Purchased: 7/01
Price paid: $31,000
Miles driven: 35,000+
Mileage on pickup: 94
Traded in for:
Year: 2006
Color: Rio Yellow
Purchased: 4/06
Price Paid: $30,400
Current Mileage: 11,545
Mileage on pickup: 30
I saw the 06 in the showroom, and the guy asked me if I wanted to take it for a drive while I was getting my 01 inspected and oil changed. I told myself not to, but I did, and I fell in love all over again, this time even more so. Before I knew it, I was negotiating a deal. This year, I added oem front lip spoiler, rear lip spoiler and oem hard top.
Owned an S2000 for 5 years before I found this site. Better late than never.
