2000 Honda S2000 Bought From Professional Car Guru, 150k, Great Shape on 2040-cars
Landenberg, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I have been a serious motorcycle rider for the past five years - had eleven bikes, training from the top US school, spent thousands of hours and dollars at it. Had accident, said to myself, enough. Thought to treat myself to a sports car. Considered a few - S2000, Miata, Mini Cooper among others. Research of many forums, user groups, web sites, friends who had them all, dealers I know, 100% said to get the S2000. Without exception. Startling response. Never had such a one-sided response ever. Found a great car nearby from a terrific honest young guy who owns custom car businesses, fabricates carbon fiber body parts, builds cars from scratch, has a couple S2000s. He got this one from his buddy who owns tow lots. Car had been towed. Wealthy owner let it set. His buddy put in what money, repairs, upgrades would be of value. Owner still unresponding. Buddies went through expensive process to get new title and take possession. My title thus says "formerly abandoned." My seller bought it from him, replaced and went through everything as the below text says. I loved him and the car, took it home. Long story short, the car may be not a fit for my back nor my wife's so after less than two weeks, out it goes. Bought it 11/18/13. With permission I copy and insert my seller's ad text and photos. I completely reserve the right and prerogative to change my mind and keep it or to sell it locally off ebay. I own two other ebay accounts that at the moment have 8679 100% positive feedbacks in the past half year so I would consider myself a pretty safe seller. Please feel free to ask me any questions. To find a buyer and a car like this is a rare treat. I didn't want to hurt his feelings because I was selling it, and he had treated me great. He was very kind about it all. This parenthetical story may be of no value to you but to me it shows the context of this car and its value to me.
"This is a 4 owner car with a clean title. The car is in very good condition. The body is in great shape. The paint looks new and is the original Honda paint job. There is a crack on the corner of the rear bumper and three small scratches on the body. The interior is in incredible shape for the age and mileage on the car. There is normal wear on the driver seat. The top is original and was well maintained. No leaks or tears in top. Car was recently serviced on 9/11/13 and inspected. I had the entire car looked over for anything that would possibly break at later date and everything was solid. All of the owners of this car really took care of it. Here is a list of parts and services I had performed on the vehicle to make sure it was in excellent condition for whoever buys the car: Clutch master cylinder replaced W/ OEM Honda parts Battery replaced W/ OEM Honda battery Exhaust replaced W/ OEM Honda exhaust Coil pack replaced W/ OEM Honda part oil change and top off all fluids 4 new Yokohama tires. This car has all original Honda Genuine parts on it. Nothing was replaced with aftermarket replacement parts. Upgrades: Elbrus lightweight aluminum wheels Injen Cold Air Intake Alpine Cd Player w/ USB and Aux port for smart phones and Pandora control Bluetooth Hands-free calling Bluetooth Audio - smartphone automatically syncs with radio when car is started and starts playing you music stored on your phone ***The stereo sounds incredible even with the top down*** I love this car and really don't want to part with it, but I am making a career change and need to let it go. I have put a good amount of money into this car to make sure it is in perfect running condition so the new owner doesn't need to worry about anything." |

Comma.ai makes your car semi-autonomous for $999
Wed, Sep 14 2016At TechCrunch's Disrupt conference in San Francisco, Comma.ai founder George "Geohot" Hotz announced the launch of the Comma One semi-autonomous driving device. Hotz said at the conference that his company has worked on the Comma One for about a year, and it will be available at the end of the year for $999 and a $24 per month subscription fee. But aside from the reasonable price, which TechCrunch points out is possible thanks to off-the-shelf components, the appeal here is that it's an add-on to an existing car that can be installed at home by the car's owner. This gives people with normal cars the opportunity to have semi-autonomous features without having to buy an entire vehicle... that is, if you have a Honda or Acura with lane-keeping assist, since Comma One is currently only compatible with those vehicles. It remains to be seen if the company will add more vehicles to the list over time. The device is roughly the size of a large cell phone or aftermarket navigation system, and it has a screen on the front and a pair of cameras on the back. The computer combines information from the device's cameras and the car's radar sensors to understand what's happening and how to respond. Hotz explained at the conference that this system is similar in capability to the Tesla Autopilot system, and will be able to complete a drive, start to finish, without the driver having to touch anything. He did however emphasize that the driver must still pay attention in the event something goes wrong, comparing the experience to watching a young student driver. Hotz told TechCrunch that the device should start shipping at the end of the year. He also said that owners of compatible Honda products in the San Francisco area are eligible for beta testing, and can get involved by emailing him at george@comma.ai. So if you've been pining for a semi-autonomous vehicle of your own, but couldn't spring for a Tesla, you won't have to wait much longer. We should point out that we don't know yet how well the system works, though we hope to find out soon. Related Video:
Honda and Mario Andretti cite pedestrians for excessive slowness
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Honda and the Andretti family have a lot to celebrate at the moment. Andretti Autosport driver Ryan Hunter-Reay won the 2014 Indianapolis 500 in his Honda-powered car, and Marco Andretti, Mario's grandson, also managed to take the third step on the podium. Apparently, the victory is making them feel magnanimous because Honda and Mario Andretti are giving the chance to ride with him in a two-seat, open wheel car.
To promote the contest, they created the Honda Speed Patrol to ticket anyone going too slow. It's an interesting idea, and the chance to ride with Andretti would be the opportunity of a lifetime. Perhaps the biggest shock of the video, though, might be when you realize how short Mario is when you see him milling about in public. Scroll down to watch one of America's most respected racers cite people in Chicago for being too slow.
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
