Default Looking for a s2k to buy

Hey, I'm in the market for a used s2000, but my price range is about $25,000 or under and I'm afraid of buying a lemon. Is there any way that I can check up on car history like carfax, etc for the Ontario area? How accurate are these things? And what things should I be looking for when buying a used S (00 or 01)... Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The best advice I can give would be to buy an S from someone on the board. The majority of members know each other and can vouch for the condition of the cars.

There is one for sale in Atlanta.(see link)
Importing vehicles is done through www.riv.ca
This site will give you all the details. I will have to do this next year.
If you dig into it I would appreciate any info you come up with. I have not found out about tax and duties yet. a daytime Running Light mod will also need to be made.
The Speedo and miles convert to km's with the push of a button.
The title is required to be at the US border for 72 hours so they can check for liens.

I know alot of the Atlanta guys and Alabama guys so if you do find one down here I can have it checked out.

Mine is from the US. For the DRL I recommend adding in actual bulbs. My DRL's are HIDs and this is a major pain as they turn on all the time!
