Default 2000 model s2000 *Faulty?*

Is there a fault in the clutch or pressure plate with this year? When you downshift the clutch pedal vibrates. I'm looking to buy a s2000 from a private owner with 44,600 and the price is at 18,500. Thanks

I wouldn't call it "faulty".
The clutch is loud and not refined. There's a TSB regarding the springs on the clutch.

Mine does it but doesn't bother me... it is a sports car after all.

Yeah, if you wanted it to act like a passenger car, you should have bought a Z4.
