Now there's more of them coming on the market and not many people buying. There's a ton of low mileage cars asking in the 20s or 30s or even 40s, but I think only the practically new mint condition ones are selling.
If it were me, I would not spend 30k on an S2000...I'd get a used Elise (they're all in great condition) and spend a few k on the motor for reliability. Ferrea valves and retainers, forged pistons, rear mount oil cooler, and either a dry sump or my electric scavenge pump idea.

Yeah recession concerns makes sense. Might be a good time to find a good deal on one lol.
Also love the Elise but thing I'd worry about with tracking one is the cost of replacing the clamshells with any sort of damage.
