well... i've got my fingers crossed. my mom has finally decided to get a new car. the car she's driving now is a RAV4, and its pretty beat up. she's decided to use the rav4 for the business and get a new car for her personal use . i got her leaning towards the s2000. and if she gets it, i'll be get to drive it . i wanted to know what a good price was for a new s2000, and how much some have paid for this car. and anything else i'll need to know when going in to negotiate. thanks in advance.

Well, yahoo says the MSRP is around 34k, but I'm sure you could get one for around 32 because it is the winter time. they prolly dont sell as many this time of year.

well the reason why the rav4 is so beat up is cuz of the business. we own a restaurant so she picks up supplys and stuff in it. and its part of the reason i wanted her to get the s2000... that way she cant use it for business cuz its too small . anyways, im not gonna let her absue this one .

I wouldn't buy a 06 s2000. The new seats look ugly, so do the wheels, and just seems to be a bit more tame with the tcs. You can find a good ap1 or ap2 for under $25k. I saw a blk/red 01' with 30k for $18,000. IMO the ap1 looks more subtle with the OEM and its blk rear diffuser, whereas the ap2 looks more aggresive. Along with the 9k modding the ap1 would be easier all you need is 4.56 gears. Ap2s have a 4.10 ratio stock but with a 4.56 ratio they would be limited to 135mph. I've hit 150 at 7500rpm once.

any ap1 ur looking at getting probably will have the warranty running out soon, or already done with. if your gonna go with the ap1 i would get either the 02 or 03 for the fact that the 2 previous year has the plastic rear window. i have an 05, and personally i love the new look that came with the ap2, i am perfectly happy with the 8k redline, and like the little extra tq. i don't know how the weather is by u but the 06 comes with the vsa, which could be helpful. u don't know how many people crash their s2k in the rain or on a turn. plus u also get the drl, and the speakers behind the seat, and a couple new colors. no matter which one u get ur not gonna go worng, cause it is such an amazing car

you should be able to get a good deal at the dealership right now. You could also wait awhile for the 2007 and then get a better deal or just buy a used one. Good luck and keep us updated
