How much is my s2000 worth?

[charlie15]

hey guys,

i was thinking of possibly selling my ap1 for an ap2 (if i can find one) but not necessarily fussed if i dont.

These questions get thrown around a lot on forums but my s2k is extremely clean and id like to hear what you guys have to say.

Paint is pretty much like new. It comes with full books (62,000 kms on clock), no accident history and not listed. Its gunmetal with red leather and comes with an ap2 front bar (along with stock front bar). Also has some wheels on it but comes with standard 16's.

How much would you pay?

[RenzokukenJ]

Pics?

[dc2screama]

What year is it?

[charlie15]

It's a 2000. Can I upload pics with iPhone? Prob not.

[dc2screama]

Yep.^

to answer your question; if it's showroom condition i'd give you 23-24 for it, or lowball to 21-22

I'd personally keep your s2000, not many ap2s out there plus for what your asking for it I don't think many would
Pay your price for a 2000 model.
Yours has low ks, logbooks ect..
End of the day it's upto you..

[connorling]

2000 model s2000 value as per Redbook:
Valuation Prices
* Private Price Guide $16,900 - $20,200
* Trade In Price Guide $13,100 - $16,400
* Average Km 130,000 - 240,000
* Price When New $68,450*
Price Guide (EGC)

since urs has lower kms, but doesnt change the fact that its 2000 model with plastic rear window and no leather centre trim and small speakers on the door.

i would say max 20000 to 22000

[charlie15]

My mate sold his 1999 ap1 black with 98,000km on clock for $23,000. Clean, but not like mine. I'd only sell it if I found an ap2 and bought that first. I wouldn't let it go and then look around. Wouldn't risk it.

End of the day, its your car, your price.

Price it from 25k, if no bites lower it stealthly.

Yes also factor this in.

Maybe check the market in your area and price accordingly


My mate sold his 1999 ap1 black with 98,000km on clock for $23,000. Clean, but not like mine. I'd only sell it if I found an ap2 and bought that first. I wouldn't let it go and then look around. Wouldn't risk it.

how long ago was this?

[integraR]

willing to sell for 23k?

[charlie15]

Mate sold his 6 months ago. 23k a bit too low atm, had an offer of 26 lol. Like I said its not for sale just yet. I've had a few pms already haha. Still a big demand for this car. More than I thought. If I can get an ap2 for around 33 ill do it

good on him.

i still doubt u can sell for more.

even in WA, where there is only handful of s2000 on the market, and 23000 for a 2000 model is about right.

Melbourne would have lot more s2000 in the market, higher supply, lower value?

Maybe not $33k..
But there's one on car sale going for $36k yellow ap2

[charlie15]

Yeah but kms are way too high I wouldn't sell mine for something with higher kms

Someone on here just pmd me with a 26k offer I think I can get at least that

[boodgy]

It's worth however much someone is willing to pay for it. Simple!

[connorling]

Someone on here just pmd me with a 26k offer I think I can get at least that

sell it then???
wow i should sell mine for 30k.

[black8thgen]

man if u can get 26k for it just go 26.5 and sell it thats awesome price i'd say..

i bought my 03 BB with 68k km for 27k last year when the market had more demand

[charlie15]

Yeah but the issue is I don't have an ap2 to go and buy. And I don't wanna risk selling mine without an ap2 in my hands. Thanks for all the replies. At least I know I can get a decent price for it that's all I really wanted to know

[Charles_91]

Keep it mate if u sell it yull end up regretting it.. post some pics up

Hey guys, this is mine and is for sale: http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Honda-S2000-2000/SSE-AD-2217612/?Cr=9

I received an offer of 20,000. What do you guys think?

[drsilliez]

you can probably sell it for more than 20k!!!

take it!
i was seriously considering coming past this weekend to make you an offer, but it would have been definitely less than $20k

[charlie15]

That's one nice looking s. I'd push for 21. But 20 is not bad by any means for the kms

[black8thgen]

just meet in the middle at 20500

[amant02]

10k tonight no fuss's

Not even joking.

[charlie15]

Hahahaha 10k

[QUOTE=charlie15;3775407]That's one nice looking s. I'd push for 21. But 20 is not bad by any means for the kms[/QUOTE

Thanks bro.

And thanks for the advice guys. I also thought it was a little low, but seeing that I haven't looked into prices for almost 4 years i was unsure. I ended up declining the offer.

[pure_na]

Someone on here just pmd me with a 26k offer I think I can get at least that

that's funny, because i was going to say you'd get 25 - 30. the higher end of that and you are getting the better end of the stick :). what hurts you (strictly imo) is the colour of the car, if it wasn't silver you'd easily get 27+. if someone is offering you 26, it may be something to consider. i have slightly less ks than you, 2000 model, but wouldn't let it go for anything less than mid 30s.....but who knows whether anyone would offer that - which is why i don't think i would try selling it.

take it from me though, if your car is as good as you say it is, **** selling it to get another s2k. i had a fair bit of experience in the market a few years back, a little experience a few years prior to that, and i'm always watching - from what i can assume today due to the past, you are certainly better off keeping yours :).

[ALPS]

+1.. no point selling yours. for an AP2.. if you want one so bad, make yours like one.

S2000 for sales
Under 20 grand, needs new gear box and diff, exhaust tips are black from burning oil
Under 23grand, has been respayed and has shit after market wheels
Under 27 grand, car is standard but needs a new roof and interior looks a little shabby
Under 30 grand you should get some nice after market goodies, has new clutch flywheel and suspension, gearbox is good
Under32 grand should get some hot wheels and tyres more after market stuff, looks hot

Just my take on what's out there

I think Km readings would need to be added in there somewhere.

[amant02]

Just a tip to guys who are looking for a s2k. Inspected the 13k one posted on Gum tree by interpendant Motor auctions. They have rose the price to 14k lol they were talkn about it when I was there.

Well back to the car motor sounds trashed. Looks like the previous owner lost control of the vechile recently as well and hit the front.

black with red interior? things got 200+ kms doesnt it?

[MonaroFan]

I think it would affect it quite alot

[flop101]

same goes with the resprayed 03 one, no rego and the clutch slips like a bitch

[Dylaan]

I have my 2001 up for sale for 19k and getting no love :(

[amant02]

Ye Flippit, Inspected nearly all on Gumtree/OzHonda and Car Sales within my budget. Everyone should be well aware if your looking to spend anything less then 23-25k be prepared for disappointment upon inspection. I can grantee the information provided on the online add and what is provided on the phone, is not what the car itself is.

Give u guys another example,

Went to inspect one in the woop woop (it was basically bush area lol)

Advertised the car's body and interior being immaculate, Upon inspection there's rips in carpet holes where the badge should've been. Clutch was on its way. Engine light would randomly turn on. Looked like the last time it was washed, was in the rain lol, and yet owners are asking 20k. Saddest part is nearly all the owners were duck heads and very ignorant, even thou I was professional and never stepped over the line in any of the conversation. Even the sales guy at the auction house weren't sales worthy.

Sorry to hijack your post OP. Just i thought i would guys know from my experience form a 3 month hunt.

This sucks. Here I am ready to negotiate on 23,000 when from the looks of it is alot cleaner than most on the market. Here is the problem, the target market for these cars are young. And some tend not to see past their first drive..

So when you say your negotiable, how negotiable are you? According to an earlier post you knocked back a $20k offer?

[charlie15]

No worries amant02. What you've written is correct. To find a clean one you'll need to spend around 23+

[VeYzZii]

So when you say your negotiable, how negotiable are you? According to an earlier post you knocked back a $20k offer?

I am still negotiable enough for the buyer to get a bargain!

[amant02]

OP if you willing to settle for 20k cash before the end July. PM me. Hassle free. Got the cash to go.

[charlie15]

I'd only sell if I had an ap2 in my hands which I don't! Been offered 26 by someone on here and I've told him that I wouldn't sell to anyone but him if I decide to go down that track.

How about you follow your own advice....

[amant02]

Relax Mate, I just took a stab in the dark. Just an option for him if he see's what he likes, ill be there tmr ready with the cash.

I know I wont be finding a clean s2k for 20k, the only one that I did like was sold within a day and within budget.

That's why I'm in the market for the cleanest dc2r atm.

[black8thgen]

dc2r and s2k markets are fairly similar - hard to find reasonably priced, well taken care of examples - gotta pay to play

[MonaroFan]

Well mines on the market at the moment and i know is not priced well for the km it has but the amount of s2k i test drove before i bought mine from s2000 priced from 16k to 28k i can say price is not a good indicator of the condition or quality of the car. there were those s2000 which are snapped up by first buyer when i was 2nd in line to view them and they were all very reasonablely priced.

[Simonnn]

The s2k market has been very interesting over the last few years, it definitely looks like a simple what you pay is what you get so buyers are willing to fork out a little extra for a clean example.

Now sorry to bring this thread off topic, but are there any s2k drivers out there who may be potentially interested in upgrading to a 135i (black, manual, twin turbo)? I'm thinking about re-joining the Honda scene and have always wanted an s2k (didn't think it was worth posting a new thread just to see if there was any interest out there).. :)

[EKVTIR-T]

why would you want to go from bmw to honda

[Simonnn]

why would you want to go from bmw to honda

Because i love my vtec yo! haha :)

[lolmclol]

why would you want to go from bmw to honda

This.

[charlie15]

S2k + cash your way? How much you looking at? How many kms on your bmw

[Simonnn]

PMed :)

[black8thgen]

could you pm me details too please :)

[MonaroFan]

to behonest guys 135i is much more refined car than the s2k even if its boring and not as fast on the track ill take a 135i if i can afford one

[DreadAngel]

why would you want to go from bmw to honda

Why not?


to behonest guys 135i is much more refined car than the s2k even if its boring and not as fast on the track ill take a 135i if i can afford one

Well reasons I want a S2K include:

A) Its fun
B) Its NOT refined
C) The car is honed from factory to a deadly edge

[MonaroFan]

Well its subjective im just saying in general : )

[DreadAngel]

All good man :p

I know ;)

[Simonnn]

Yep, definitely two entirely different beasts :) Lets not turn this into a 135i vs s2k thread lol!

[VeYzZii]

I don't know the worth of my car is dollar figures, but I know for a fact that its better than most. Just a shame the market is hard for these cars. I still think the price is pretty cheap, and the only reason I would let it go for there-abouts it because i really need a Utility. But I rather wait, and not be robbed.

Hows your search going anyway @flop

[flop101]

so far so good. learnt to sus out what i dont want in an s2k, and also learnt about what the correct steering feel should be like. im not in any rush to buy, im just biding my time for the right one to come along. tossing up if i want to buy one with mods or no mods on it, but ill see when the time comes.
have you had heaps of interest in your car? or just heaps of time wasters?

Yea mate, I tell everybody that calls that they should trust what any buyers, me inclusive say. There is a detailed thread on what to look for. Use that.
Time wasters mate, all time wasters. There has been only 2 people that have inspected the car, in the 1 month its been for sale for. Lots of Texts, emails and people asking about swapping. There are people that haggle over text messages, before even seeing the car.. I am so sick of it to be honest. I don't reply to emails anymore, and unless the text message sounds like it has some thought in it, I won't reply.
