Ft: Mint s2000

s2kev · 10-10-2009, 04:27 PM

I have a mint condition 2003 Honda S2000 that I would like to trade for something more practical. The car has no issues and the maintenance has been performed regularly. It has never been abused or taken to the track. It rarely even gets driven as it only has 28k miles and is always parked inside a garage. The soft top has no holes whatsoever and the interior looks brand new. Some believe that the 2003 (AP1) is the best year S2k because it has a glass rear window (along with a few other upgrades prior models didn't have) and was the last year that has the 9k rpm redline. An S2000 gives you the experience of owning a sports car without the cost of owning a sports car because it is inexpensive to maintain and extremely reliable. The only modifications I have done are purely cosmetic and they include: wheels (gunmetal 18" Volk LE28N), lowering on Espelir springs, clearing out the headlights (but I changed the bulbs amber to keep it legal), and recently I replaced the front bumper for the newer AP2 version and added an OEM lip. The car has never had any engine modifications. I'd hate to sell my car nor do I need to but it would be nice to have something that I can drive everyday/everywhere as I don't even drive my s2000 into downtown LA or any other areas that will make me paranoid about potholes, steep driveways, theft, vandalism, etc. I'm looking for anything along the lines of a e46 m3, e90/e92, e350, clk350, 525i, 530i, 996 911, 745li, g500, slk55, etc. Just let me know what you have and I'll see if I want it, I prefer something in the same meticulous condition as my car. This is the most recent picture that I have, it was taken about 2 weeks ago. Thanks.

If you're worried about an s2000 being stolen downtown, then why would you get a BMW ///M3? You're not even going to want to leave the parking lot, and with that notion you can forget about the 911.

wait, your info says you've got a 325i as well...why don't you just drive that instead?

I'm more interested in trading than selling the car.

LOL uhm anyone should know that the exclusivity/price of a car has nothing to do with the likeliness of it getting stolen

. Hence why Camrys and Accords are among the most stolen cars while Porsches are one of the least. And for some reason this car seems to draw much more attention than many of the cars I listed.

No pics of the engine but it looks like any other AP1 engine as I have never done anything to it.

I do have a 325i which I drive the most hence the 28k miles on the S2k in my 6 years of ownership . Between the S2k, my 325i, and my S500, the S2000 never gets driven.
