So, funny story as to how I sold my DC5R:
Went to a dealer to test drive a pre-loved s2000 they had. Was in quite good condition and only needed a couple of minor things fixed before I would consider buying. You guys all know how dealers are. Always trying to close a deal. As such, this sales rep in particular, lets call him Joseph, asked me
"What's stopping you from buying this car today?"
and I responded
"My folks won't let me have two cars at home, let alone sports cars so I have to sell mine first".
"That's your car in the parking lot out there right?" Joseph pointed out.
"Yeah"
"Well how's this, I'll take it for a quick drive, if I think it's in good condition, I'll give you your asking price"
I was quite skeptical as I always so sure dealers would lowball me if I tried to trade in my ride. Nevertheless, I let him flog the car down the street and before I knew it, I was signing the paperwork for my new car:
Thar she blows:
Quite happy with the red leather interior. Car is 100% stock and even includes the 8 stacker cd player with the stock honda tape casette deck. As for plans, I really want to maintain this car and keep it as OEM looking as possible. Hah. Good joke right?
I want to get some money together for a hardtop (Will need to do some research as to what's worth the coin). Seeing as how this is virtually clubs2k, what are the opinions of the resident s2000 owners?
I look forward to seeing how this beast grows.
