- A little different than my usual interviews because.. I'm the owner this time! I just bought this S2000. Come with me to go through it and why I chose this one, and what's next with the car!

I'll just keep my 03 s2k that I've owned since new, pretty sure the market will play in my favor, but since I've had it for 21 years don't think I'm selling or modding it any time soon😂. I like the color combo
Keep that thing forever!
Wow that's awesome bro. Your a true S2000 owner. 👍 2003 is probably that best year to own it. AP1 last year and honda fixed those small issues with the motor. I have a 2005 with 24K miles on it bought it in 2019 I'm 4th owner and probably that last but we see. Hopefully by 2030 the prices will sky rocket on these beautiful cars.
@@paulrakis I'm hoping they stay relatively the same so I can buy an AP1!
@mccgarage haha I highly dought it. Try to buy one now when they are low. Your probably not gonna see these prices in a couple years fron now
I didnt realize it then but now i see the muddlaps are a rare accessory
Are really?! They are?
I love it! Bring it out to autocross sometime to get comfortable handling it near the limit, there's a few S2000s usually out and some very good drivers who are happy to help folks learn!
That's my goal! Want to get a 4 point roll bar installed before I do too much though!
Glad the wheels are back to silver after this video. Made a huge difference bro!
5:12 I almost spit out my lunch bro lmao
8:00 I've heard it put that the AP1 is the better S2000 but the AP2 is the better car
9:30 yeah, having a low mileage example of any car will always make you feel somewhat guilty about driving. Having something with a few miles is great, cause you don't have to worry about the occasional ding and scratch!
Glad you became part of the club brother (damn shame it's an AP2 tho). Can't wait to get all of us out to do a run or 2.
🤙
Ap1= 99-03
Ap2= 04-09
04-05 no driveby wire
06-09 had traction control/driveby wire.
Hopefully this helps
Congrats on your S2000.
Also the Rev limit is reduced to reduce risk of oil pump failure on AP2
@@ciaranmccormack4434 true since they opted for more torque.
Thanks for the input and thanks for the support!
Looks sweet! This will be one for the ages...
Cheers on your AP2 S2K. I got my 2002, AP1 with 60,000 mi 12 years ago. Paid $11,000. Still feel it is the finest pure sportscar ever built. Even a non-mechanic like myself can change all the fluids, filters and even the plugs. I've kept it 100% stock and never felt it really lacked anything. Given the ultra reliability, and very unique driving experience, I would expect clean, low millage cars to continue to rise. Get that girl into the mountains and let me know how she feels at V-tech!!!
Thank you! It's been so fun to own and the mountain VTEC experience is unreal!
@@mccgarage YEEE HAAA Giddy up
Nicest car in the world. Let me get it bro.
100k 😂

Look up what S2Ks are listing for in Florida…marketplace is chalk full of 150,xxx plus mile ones for well over 20k.
I said sell, not sit on marketplace for months! But I get it each region is a little different. I still think they will come down.
They’ve already come down. I don’t think they will come down any further. Now is definitely the right time to buy.
Very informative video, thank you.
No thank you!
Nice video. I have an extremely well maintained 10/10 tags 2001 AP1 that is worth much more now than what I paid for it 15 years ago. Sort of getting money just to drive it if one thinks about it, minus gas and maintenance of course. More importantly, your S2K will give you more smiles per miles than pretty much any other car out there, without all the headaches. Happy motoring!
Drive it and enjoy it! It's not a rare car.
Thank you for the support! I am definitely going to enjoy it!
Normalise your audio, man. The music is EXTREMELY loud and your voice is pretty quiet.
Oof, then you get in the car and the volume jumps big time..
@@mccgarage Bring 'em.
But seriously though, great video. I don't think I'll ever own am S2K but I enjoy learning about them
Thank you! I’m doing an update video next month, stay tuned for some more facts and my experience so far!
How much did you buy this for? On the FB Marketplace?
Feel free to hit me up on instagram (realmccgarage) for the answer
I’m never selling my 07
Good!
“Upgrades”
??
@@mccgarage I’m just a snob who likes a bone stock S2000. lol
Don’t mind me. 👍🏻🔧
@@mikeyerke3920 haha I love it! That's why I'm going for an OEM+ look for now I am starting to love it mostly stock. Make sure you're subscribed I'm doing an update episode in a few weeks with some updates.
@@mccgarage Awesome check out my car too!
Most overpriced, overrated and overhyped car in automotive industry. Shitty torque and slow as cow below 5k rpm. Avoid this shit box if you are driving in areas that has a busy traffic. Sold it after 1 year!
Let me guess you bought a Corvette to replace it? Did you ever even get this thing in a corner?
Are you salty because the miata guys were outhandling you on track? Lmao.
