I assume people's priorities changed in life.. they get married, have kids, need to carry crap. The S2000 just can't do that, they're probably selling it and getting a civic

Totally agree with you. I think you hit the nail on the head with this.

How can there be too many now? If anything there are less S2000's on the road.

Think about it, they stopped producing it so there are no more new ones. Its getting a bit more affordable so people with no talent buy them and then wreck them. There are no more new ones to replace the one's being written off.

And people who buy an S2000 just because they think its cool... well those are the ones wrecking them

Ok that might be a little extreme but you get the point.

6-7-8 yo car is nothing.

Go check the price EVEN in the US on Supra, NSX, etc... they are still selling for 30k + for a decent one.

The S2k is a 2 seated coupe, 2 doors are not good once you grown out of them and get a family or have other obligations in life. I was seriously considering trading my TL for one here on RS (the white one that JDMStylo had posted up). But after thinking about how much I use my trunk and the rear seats, I decided to keep my TL.

Oh yeah, and after a while, who dosen't want a change?

Yup, 13,000 would most likely be a rebuilt title.

S2k is fine . Fun to drive and affordable. What else do you expect for price value as it is nowadays. Stop crying and move on your life.
