Don't forget, the S2000 cost around $40K in 2000 while the 86 is around $25K in 2013. Far superior accessibility and price performance ratio. When it was new I personally found it rather fat and overpriced for a roadster.

I'm not into comparing used versus new cars myself. If you want to compared used cars, why stop at Honda? Porsche and others have used cars too. The S2000 isn't the Holy Grail or anything.
A 2009 CR, the highest trim, with EVERY factory option MSRP'd for 37.9k.

Get your facts straight.

A current model used BRZ is worth less than my (now) 6 year old s2000. There must be a reason why the S2000 is holding value.
