What to look for in a used S2000?
I'm looking to buy a used 2004-2005 Honda S2000. What are the things to look for that might be a problem? A stock no winter lower miles silver not kiddie beaten is what I am basically looking for. I am in no hurry either, just looking for tips on any issues or hints of abuse. TIA, Reb

Re: 2005 s2000 w10k miles [nomisny]
Edmunds says $20,386 trade, $22,229 private party, and $23,667 dealer retail, and $25,077 certified. I think that last number is WAY too high. KBB says $27,180 - also way too high. You can go here at the Honda CPO page a do a search of all S2000s in your area and what various dealers are asking for them. You could buy mine (NFR 11k with HondaCare warranty until 2012 or something) ... Read More

Test Drive 2007 S2000 - NOW Drove the Boxster& S and base 911
habitat1, Thanks for the heads-up. I appreciate your feedbacks. Since you owned an S2000 and own a 911 cab, you have a lot of hands-on experience. Today I test drove a base 2007 Boxster, a 2007 Boxster S, and a 2005 base 911. What an experience! Boxster- well-balanced, nice engine sound, slick and precise 5-speed shifter, clutch has great feels. The car is quick but does not have very strong accelerations. ... Read More

Re: trading up? [yinzer1]
I did this - traded in my 2001 for a new 2005 2.5 years ago. They gave me what I needed for the 01 and sold me the 05 for invoice (at that time there were no dealer incentives). If Honda brings back cheap S2000 leases again I would try to do the same deal again to get a newer car. Trade in value for a 2004 with 30k in excellent ... Read More

Re: 2007 S2000 Lease Payment [accelerator]
If they bring back the cheap lease deals before mine is up, I will replace my '05 with a new car. If not, then I am planning on buying mine off the end of the lease. I was able to swap my first S (2001) for the 2005 by getting enough out of it to pay off the lease early with no negative equity and get the cheap deal on the ... Read More

Re: Test Drive 2007 S2000 - Great Performance but Too Noisy- So Change of Heart [bf109ace]
I'll look at a Z4 3.0Si, Z4 M roadster, and a Boxster and see how they perform. I agree with fedlawman - if you want a heavier, dulled feel roadster like the Z4, get it. But don't suggest to Honda that they go in that direction with the S2000. You may not like the fact that it is visceral, but that's what makes it great and sets it apart from cars ... Read More

Re: S2000 torque? [tgeen]
"Speaking of which, can anyone comment on driving a pre-2005 Boxster with a more recent S2000" After trading my Honda S2000 for a replacement sedan in 2004, I got back into the "fun car" market in 2005 and test drove and nearly bought a 2005 Boxster S (280 hp version). That car was quicker than the S2000, but not be a huge margin. It also would have been a bit more ... Read More

Re: Z Vs. s2k [habitat1]
Habitat1, Enjoyed your comments about the S2000 and the inclusion of the 911S in the discussion. As you may remember from my participation on this forum several months ago, I own a 2006 997S and have an eye on the S2000. My interest in the S2000 has increased since I learned it's being discontinued. The attractive current price has stimulated my appetite as well. I contacted several dealers last week and ...

Re: Z Vs. s2k [zman27]
"the s2k had some good power in it but, it doesnt compare to the z." I think it's pretty obvious that there are fans of the S2000 and fans of the 350Z. Personally, I think those that say the "like both cars" are trying to be diplomatic. The S2000 and 350Z are about as far apart in their approach to sports car performance as one can get in the $32k+/- price ... Read More

Re: New S2000 Odometer Miles: What is a reasonable number? [donquixote30]
You are smart to be concerned about potential abusive test drivers. That said, it's probably going to be tough to find an S2000 with the minimum 3-4 delivery miles unless you catch one literally coming off the delivery truck. My 2002 S2000 was also off the showroom floor and had 10 miles on the odometer. The sales manager appeared professional and claimed that the only miles the car had been driven ... Read More

Re: good deal? [23109vc]
With the lease you lose the acquisition fee, which I think with AHFC is $595 - you have to factor that in to the lease VS buy numbers. The S2000 HAD strong resale value - so the 2001 I got used for $24,500 brought me $19,500 trade in for my 2005 after 2+ years and 15k miles of driving. You can't count on that type of return NOW - they are ... Read More

"The S2000 is simply too small, has goofy, inappropriate instrumentation for its genre, and lacks adequate torque. "Brilliant" it is not. And I'm not impressed one whit by the fact that you own a 911. Overpriced and unreliable, I regret to say." You are certainly welcome to your opinion, just try stating it as such.

Re: 2004 - 2005 S2000 [prime time]
Have you considered a new 2006? They can be purchased at around $31,000, whereas a used, low mileage 2004/5 will probably sell for $25,000+, at least in our area. For that relatively nominal savings, I'd rather have a new one with a full 3/36 warranty and the ability to break it in properly myself. I do know of someone who bought a low mileage 2003 for $23,800, but he specifically wanted ... Read More

Re: End of the road is GOOD!!! [njexpress]
I think your numbers are a little off. If I am not mistaken, Honda imported roughly 5,000 to 7,000 S2000's per year to the US between late 1999 and now. There are probably close to 50,000 in the US. On the other hand, I believe that Toyota and Honda produce more like 300,000+ Camrys and Accords annually for sale in the US. So the idea of the S2000 being exclusive is ... Read More

S2000 2005 left overs and 2006
I’m from South California and I bought mine last weekend after researching this model for two weeks. Here are some helpful hints :D The MSRP is $34600 but almost all the dealers will sell it at invoice. The interesting stuff is that two dealerships agreed to sell it in $29700, which is $1300 below invoice. If you want to lease and have high credit score you can get the car for ... Read More

Re: S2000: Suitable "only car?" [habitat1]
For the past 9 years, I have owned a set of two cars at a time. Each car fullfiling somewhat different goals. Specifically, the first set was a Corvette C5 and a 33O Ci BMW -- both coupes. The former driven when weather conditions did permit and the latter for all-season driving purposes. Both are drivers cars, but clearly one more versatile albeit less exciting than the other.

Re: S2000: Suitable "only car?" [donquixote30]

I seriously doubt a Honda S2000 in my garage would get much use if the Carrera stayed. The 997 is a better 20 mile daily commuter and neither of them are practical for winter use, even with winter tires. If you ... Read More

Re: Re: Re: 05 Lease special over???
Hi oceanexprt. If you were able to lease a 2005 Honda S2000 at dealer invoice, the dealer that you get it from would make the $750 dealer cash that is available on it right now on your deal.

Closing out the 2005's
If you're looking to get an S2000 on the cheap, you can get great deals now that we are heading into winter. I was offered $29,000 on one, which is a little less than the dealer's cost, even taking into account the holdback. They want to clear them out to make way for the 2006's, which I fear you may not ever be able to get a great deal on, because ... Read More

Re: 05 Lease special over???
Hi ajpbf7. Unfortunately, Honda did not renew its special lease program on the 2005 S2000 for the month of October. It replaced the special money factor that it was providing on this car with $750 dealer cash. That doesn't mean that you can't still lease one, just that the money factor will be higher. If you decide that you still want to lease an '05 S2000, make sure to take this ... Read More

Re: S2000 Special Lease
You're very welcome etomidate. Honda is running a pretty attractive lease program on the 2005 S2000 this month. Its buy rate lease money factor for a 36 month lease of this car is currently only .00053. This is equivalent to an interest rate of around 1.3%. The thing that I do not like about the lease that Honda is advertising on the S2000 right now is the large down payment. Most ... Read More

Re: Discontinued Honda S2000 [vinny1961]
"Improved suspension with softer ride" Some might contend that improved and softer in a sports car are contradictory terms ;) My take on a 2005 S2000 vs. the former 2002 model I owned for 2.5 years is that the ride is slightly rougher over bumps, not softer, probably due to the lower profile 17" wheels. I also think the interior changes are a aesthetic net negative. I thought my 2002 all ... Read More

My husband and I have been wanting to purchase a used convertible for a "fun" third car. After much research, we decided that a 2004 Honda S2000 with low miles would probably be our best bet. However, I have now found out that this model will be discontinued by Honda after 2005. My question for more experienced car buffs is this: is it a good investment (or idea) to purchase a ...

Re: After 2005, what's next?
My sources tell me that the S2000 will be history. Apparently Honda is making more money selling minivans, SUVs and old "stand-bys" than they can with the roadster product. I can only hope that they would reconsider. S2000 is my toy!!

After 2005, what's next?
I've test driven the 2005 S2000 several times and I've heard from the dealer that 2005 is supposedly the last year for the S2000. Is this true? Has there been any talk about what's next? I've checked all over the web and found zip, not even a concept car. The dealer mentioned that Honda likes to change body styles every 5-6 years. If that's true, then the S2000's due for a ...

Rough shift - grinding
Greetings all - I have been following this forum for some time and recently purchased a 2005 S2000. I have noticed in the past couple of days there is a grinding feeling when shifting from first to second; it's consistent occurrence, not present only if I shift much more slowly, letting the RPM's fall significantly (I don't normally shift quickly). It's not a long grinding, only a quick feeling of 2-3 ... Read More

no title
Per some snippets on vtec.net, there are no changes for 2005, not even a new color. I can't vouch for the veracity of this information. I'm not sure where the S2000 is going, nor what this part of the sports car market is going to look like in a few years. The S is no less of a car than it was a few years ago, but the Elise was bound ... Read More

When's the Best Time to Purchase S2000
After looking, test driving, researching various convertibles - the Mazda Miata, Honda S2000, BMW Z4, Toyota MR2, and the Nissan 350, I've finally made the choice of the S2000!!! I'm pretty excited and it was by far the best in looks, and to a woman, what else matters:+)!! Oh, yeah, and my husband mentioned something about "RPMs" and "red lining" and "speeding tickets" when I hit 6th gear cruisin' down I-95 ... Read More

Redesign
Does anyone know if Honda will be completely redesigning the S2000 in 2004 or 2005. I like the S2000, but I am 6'6" and I can barely fit in it. I recently heard that more room will be placed in the redesign. I hope that also comes with a telescopic/tilt steering wheel.
