Hey all looking to get into an evo in the next month or two. I currently drive an 04 s2000 but need something bigger now. Going to look at an 03 with 32k on it today and i was wondering what are somethings i should look out for? Will be sad to see the s2000 go but excited for awd and turbo .

 

how many miles are on your 04?

 

look at the radiator for bent fans, that means someone played with the turbo.

 

Best money spent is to take it to KevinD and have him do a pre-purchase inspection. I bet he probably already knows the car.

+1, don't make a costly mistake.. Have Kevin check it out.

 

whos selling it?

 

I sold my S2k to get an Evo too. I miss the S

'03's are notorious for rust spots and clear-coat peeling on the brake calipers and wing blade. For the most part though check it over like you would any used car and make sure the previous owner stayed current with maintenance and all the fluids.

Is it or was it ever modded? If it is or was you'll definitely want to check things over that much closer to make sure its not a hack-job.

 

I miss my S as well. Funny, but I was talking to one of my co-workers walking from the garage into the office building this morning, and he purchased a S2000 3 years ago, and now he is looking to supercharge it. I recommended the Kraftwerks supercharger kit.

Man with the amount of money I have spent on my Evo, I could have one badass supercharged S2000.

But to the OP, definately have Kevin look at it.

 

i live in denton....what SK2 do you drive? ive seen a few around. and if dont mind me asking where you live cause there are a couple where i live...

 

For me to came down to either buying the Evo or getting a GReddy turbo kit for the S. I liked Comptech's supercharger a lot too.

 

JJ, your daugher can't ride in the backseat of the S

 

sorry it took so long for me to reply. i work nights and dont have internet at my apartment yet. i drive a sebring silver with 34k on it. i stay in the woodhill apartments. the evo is located at david mcdavid honda in frisco. i didnt get a chance to look at it today. the asking price is 16999. i will definitely take it to kevin to have it looked at. i appreciate all the advice.

 

I live not to far from there, let me know if you want another set of eyes when you go check it out.

 

Thats why momma has the 4 door honda accord. Jessica liked the S2000 more than the my Evo, She says it was more fun, sporty, and the big one.....the top goes down, but yet she would always complain about the lack of space to put her purse anywhere in the cabin.

But lately she has been wanting a Cadillac CTS-V, yes, the new ones with 500+ horsepower. I'm like WTF! Where did this come from? But I think she would settle on the new Cadillac SRX.

Take that back...........She will have to settle for the SRX!

 

ew id never turbo an s2k! unless the motor was built. ive never owned one, but i hear the bottem end power is TERRIBLE! now a s/c s2k would be badass!

JD new CTS COUPE FTW! but thats not a kid carrier
