S2000 Purchase / Sale Price

[dciisir]

Hi All,

I am currently looking to buy an S2K and very interested to find out how much people have paid for it recently. I know there is redbook and there is carsales but still wanting to know the final sale price. I have been looking at carsales for the past few months and have seen s2ks that have been there for several months and the price is not overly insane either. They seem hard to sell so maybe I can haggle more.

If you could post the following, it would be much appreciated.

this car in particular, he wouldn't sell it for 24,500. now hes got it at 23000... don't give up when bargaining pay the price you think its worth and always start off lower then what your willing to pay so if he says no way to low, just say your final price then ye..

This thread is great for buyers but horrible for sellers lol. I got 2 gs off mine but it was already at a very reasonable starting price

Thanks for the reply all. Much appreciated. I hope I can find one soon.

I think if the car has been modified, you can haggle the crap out of it because a lot of buyers (myself included) wouldn't by an example that was modified, especially when you are looking at $40k+ for an AP2!

If I was selling my car, I wouldn't budge on my price, Id just tell the buyer to go find another one in the same condition, then wait for him to come back and raise it by 5% just for pissing me around.
