weird, I was getting on here to actually ask you that question.

Everyone is starting jack the damn prices up on S2000's now, it's fucking ridiculous. I sold my 02 with 84,000 for $13,000. It was tastefully modified with K-Sport's, RPF1's, J's Header, and Greddy Ti-C exhaust. Now people want $18,000 for ones with 70,000 miles.

Passed on the car, I just could drive myself to spend $16,800 on an 03 car. If he goes down on the price more I may get it but for now I'm still looking.

So, if anyone runs across an 02+ that's red, black or maybe white S2000, please let me know. I would prefer the car to have 40,000 miles or less and priced close $15,000.


EDIT: Screw it, I'm going to get the car lol.

Before:




After:




When we first put them on, I would be hitting my fender at full lock because they go so low. I'm on un-rolled stock fender, and daily it; so I want to semi-preserve my fenders and front lip. I could lay it on the ground and the coils would probably still go lower. I'm happy with how it drives/sits.

**Don't mind the hole in the top, it is for throwing stuff at tail-gaters**

Is it me or does the rear looks lower than the front? Either way, it looks good.

A couple of mine back when I did the S2000 thang for anyone that cares, good times those were:

Spoon race car #95 Work emotions spun aluminum (One of 3 gold sets- 10 sets total made for Spoon back in 2000, 8 lbs each):





Ap1's with 25mm spacers:




One of the S2000 drives we did in Williamsburg around '07-'08, 25 S2k's showed up:





Gears front lip, 1 of 4 real ones ever made:


Me driving Hannibal King's S at driftwater:
