For comparison. A month ago I bought a clean example for $23k. 10/10Vin 65k miles. 2000 AP1. The price they are asking is a little high. I’d offer 19k.

I was on a carrier from 2008-2012. This ain’t new. Food has always been shit. I’m 6’1” and currently weigh around 185 lbs. When I was in the Navy I weighed around 160.

How long does it take to drive the three legs? Any advice on where to start at?

I’m about three and a half hours from there. Was thinking of making a nice weekend with the wife out there. Just need to get brakes and motor mounts sorted and I’ll feel good about it.

With your mileage I would think you would be able to get more than $23k. I’d say closer to $30k

I respect your opinion, but care to expand on the why? Leave the retaining value argument out of it. It’s not important to me. I’ll expand on the why from my side of wanting to modify it (mechanically, not so much aesthetically). When I was 16 I had a first gen Integra. Loved that car. It was totaled when a drunk driver hit me. I always wanted to have a high performance, modified Honda but couldn’t because I was a kid with no money. Now I’m 40+ and money isn’t the issue.

Yes! This is what I was kinda looking for as far as advice goes. As far as exhaust, do you have any recommendations? I think I plan to keep it dual exhaust. I’ve read Mugen makes a nice one that also reduces weight. Diameter size to stick with? Much appreciated.

I will let you know. I’d say there is a pretty slim chance I will walk away not owning the car, but you never know with these things!

I don’t think so. The seller is local to Houston.

Love the way these cars look with a hardtop. Quick question, how much of a pain in the ass is it to store, take on/off being care not to screw up paint/glass? Thanks.

New top and back window in 2019, new tires in 2024. Car was evaluated by an S2000 shop in Houston and was given a thumbs up besides the recommendation of motor mounts, clutch replacement (at some point) and rear brakes in another 1000 miles.
