Are high mileage S2ks a bad idea? Price aint bad for what I have heard is an awesome car. Ignore the ghetto wing and wheels but I followed one of these in the same color and interior combo back from ATL this week and it made it move a little:

Drive one first. They may not be your character. Great cars, but I ended up not liking them at all after lusting on them for years. I think you will find power anemic the way it delivers power is not how I enjoyed it. Not that you will ever get there, but handling at the limit is non-progressive; a car that rewards a tidy line and punishes you if not.

If you like them. Go towards an AP2, 2004+. 2004-2006 is best for making power based on available software tuning, and has some nice creature comforts (aside from the 2.2L upgrade vs the 2.0L). If you go looking, make sure to look for smoke out the back as they have blow-by issues, as well as check the upper front control arms for separation from the unibody. Don't expect smokey nice burnouts, or be prepared to constantly replace differentials.

Taking it easy? Not beating up on it? Superb Honda reliability :thumbup:

That one is way too much money for the mileage and condition.


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Mike - 04-03-2015

They can be very hit or miss. Do not buy one that has been modified. That kind of goes for every car, but especially things made of rice and revving to the moon. As DJ said, look for smoke and leaks (check their driveway). Also inspect the top as they aren't known to last forever.

I haven't followed the market, but my guess is that one is about $5k more than ballpark.


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Gordonovski - 04-15-2015

Anyone got $50k?

Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - SlimKlim - 04-15-2015

There's a special edition one of those for sale in NOVA right now for $47k. Its cool, but if I had that kind of money for a shockingly unreliable exotic, I think I'd get an F355 instead because its a 355.

Also found this for sale about 4 miles north of Harrisonburg on 11. Not supa troopa cool, but figured someone here might be looking (besides Taylor). It's a 5 speed with ~150k miles

Did you get a peak at the mileage? Maybe I can talk them down a couple... thousand.


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Gordonovski - 04-16-2015

Yeah, forgot to mention that, owner said ~150k when I talked to him on the phone.


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Evan - 04-16-2015

yikes thats about double what it should be.

at least it isnt a short nose crank


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Senor_Taylor - 04-16-2015

Have you looked at Miata prices recently, Evan? Shit's crazy yo'.


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Evan - 04-16-2015

So...spec E30 donor car?


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - SlimKlim - 04-16-2015

Even saying that made my heart skip a beat. Cry


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - Gordonovski - 04-16-2015

Sorry, didn't mean to cause undue trauma.

That would be a hilarious "Don't Even Reply" type CL conversation though, you gotta admit

You'd freak the seller out so much about what the next owner might do to the thing he'd pull it off the market. :lol:


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - WRXtranceformed - 04-17-2015

Would be an awesome upgrade if I haven't read so much about the suspension on these being punishingly harsh...which surprises me when you consider what this car is "about"
