Want to trade for an s2000?
 

So I know this is a long shot but please read this before you go any farther:

-I bought this S2000 a year and a half ago. I bought the cleanest, nicest, lowest mile car I could find, and have loved it ever since because I thought I -was going to keep it forever.
-Fast forward a year and a few months. I get accepted into medical school. I'm at the stage in my life where I realize I need to have a car with at least 4 seats, some more trunk space, and NEEDS to be A/T (so the lady can drive; S2000 is my only car). I was going to sell the S2K and buy a BRZ limited, but that would require paying taxes, etc. I thought I would try to find the perfect deal just in case someone finds this.

I am only interested in 1 car: Subaru BRZ A/T transmission in white.

Here is my S2000. I know people will start making low ball offers, but to put it in perspective, I saw an identical S sell for 26.9 last week.
-MY 2007 - has traction control if wanted. It's an AP2 obviously and will come stock
-Has an AP1 lighter flywheel and brand new clutch added while the tranny was off: installed by Honda master mechanic.:confused0068:
-only 21,500 miles (18 documented oil changes, fresh tranny fluid, and running AMSoil in the diff)
-Previous owner was an old man in St. Louis who never beat on it, cars never been tracked, launched, raced etc.

nice s2k, and wrong forum section i think

BRZ is a 2+2. Unless you're short, fitting 4 people comfortably is impossible.

if they still made s2000, i think thats the car i would of bought instead

good luck with ur trade/sale

21k mile and 18 oil changes?? Little much don't you think?

Lol I didn't do that. Previous older gentleman did it every 1k miles.

As an S2K owner (AP1 used for weekends / trackdays) and a BRZ owener (daily driver), if you need a 4-seater, the BRZ is the wrong car. . .

BRZ fits 2 comfortably and 3 people reasonably over short distances.

If you want a 2 seater sports car with more overall storage room than an S2K, then a BRZ is a good choice.

Agree with everyone else around here, if you actually need a 4 seater this isn't the car at all. You can barely squeeze in 3 good sized guys so forget about 4. Every time someone sits in the back they're uncomfortable, especially after about half an hour or so. More storage than the S2K it does have but don't expect to have more than 2 people in the car most of the time. I would only expect it as a 3 seater and that's only if you have to, you can push it to 4 if you really need to do a short trip but I personally can't have anyone sitting behind me or it's going to put me too close to the wheel.

If you aren't looking to trade cars again really soon after you discover how impractical the BRZ is... I'd recommend looking into something with more utility. The rear seats in the twins is pretty much useless. I really tried to make the BRZ work as my only car. It just didn't work. Having a BRZ and a beater Forester is perfect though if you can swing it.

If you need one car, why not look into the new WRX? That car looks like a winner.

you got my vote on WRX. Especially if you live where it snows 4 months of a year

Not trying to be rude but jesus guys, I was just looking for a trade. I have driven both twins, sat in both, and looked at space capacities. I just said 4 seats because I need a bit more room for running to Costco etc. I don't need a big size upgrade just some more.
Also, I want to switch to a DD auto because I'll only be driving in downtown traffic for the next 4 years.

Thanks for the opinions but I know what I'm getting.

She's a beauty. Put a matching hard top on it and you'd have perfection.

I don't know how it works in Indiana, but in washington, you can't "trade" cars. Tittles need to be transferred through the DMV, and unless you gift the cars to each other (only allowed once), you are required to pay taxes.

Regardless, being in medical school doesn't it make a bit more financial sense to get a reasonable car that you can both drive while you are in school through residency. I'm pretty sure its a busy time. Plus then you can spluge in a couple years when the BRZ Sti maybe comes out. Just my 2c.

Sell them to each other for a dollar then.
