The Official Honda S2000 Thread
^^^The fact that they stated that ***OTHER*** makes and models aren't welcome would be a huge turnoff to me.
Something about leaving out other enthusiasts that would enjoy the experience too seems snobby. Although I'd assume it's for an all S2K photoshoot...
Sam, I'm approx $2K into the rims alone after power etc..but I'd likely keep the Sumitomo.
I haven't decided if I'm even selling them though

I agree that the S2k only thing is kinda douchey but whatever. I'll ask to join the group and if I can go then cool. If not then whatever.

LOL...nobody loves the price, but that's how you end up on xxr 
honestly, I went with the Konig for a killer price...but in the end, I was upset that I put such heavy shoes on such a light car.

I am also trying to sell my ADVANs. But...everyone on CL is so dumb that I end up just making fun of them for asking dumbass questions like.
-I am in Alaska. It will take me $1700 in 2 cycle gas to drive there in my snowmobile. Will you give me the wheels and $500 cash for me to come pick them up TODAY? bro.
Buncha walrus riding MF's.

Lol. That was an exaggeration. But people do want gas money to come get shit.
My firm price on a set of ADVANs is $1250. Fkin cheap, M8.
I don't own stock in oil companies. So...how does their gas expense benefit my sale? And they usually want like $100 off to come out from like...NW Indiana. Gas is like $2.25/gallon. 100/2.25 = 44 gallons. My suggestions would be offered thusly:
1.) Dont drive a Panzer tank to come get them.
2.) Would you like me to cover your cable bill too?
3.) GFY
I'll never sell anything. I'm so lonely :'(

Roland...
I have a long drawn out story about my stock AP2 exhaust...this guy wanted to buy, I carried it to the a church down the block because no CL people at my house...
twice...stood me up the first time. 2nd time I warned him that it wasn't gonna be a meet up to test fit or lowball, come with money, leave with exhaust...
he shows up and goes oh that's for an ap2? I needed an ap1...never mind, I'll just buy the test pipe from you, that I was including in the sale.
I hadn't felt like punching someone in the fucking throat that badly in a while...

When I was selling my ITR, a "collector" from CA wanted me to take like $3k off my price because:
-His plane tix were gonna cost $1k (?!?!?!?!??!!??!?)
-A transport would cost him $1500. He didn't wanna drive it back because "time is money" and he was "too old for that kind of thing".
-Someone else wasted his time before so...he was leary.
I suffer from a disease in which I HAVE to be right. So to prove that plane tickets don't cost $1k, I found him tickets for like $400ish ROUND TRIP. On Southwest (decent airline).
He said he did not want to drive to LAX because it was 2 hrs from him. He wanted to fly out of Ontario which, according to him is "much more expensive". And that hs wanted this because....again...time is money.
My quandary would be...why is his transport MY problem? Even if the flight from Ontario was $600 more...and it takes 2hrs more to get to LAX...and his time was worth $300/hr....why was he lowballing me on my car?!?!?!

It's not your problem, plane and simple. 
Fucking idiot...
Yeah, you ever have one of those I shoulda said this or that after the fact? Fuck, I was cursing myself for being too nice...
what I SHOULD have done is NOT even sold him the test pipe so meeting with me would have been a total waste of time on his
part too.
He had the nerve to call me again a week later, presumably looking for parts...I ignored it.

I'm nice deep...deep down inside. Like...I almost made some kid drive home over $15 on a $175 sale. Price said FIRM, dammit. He had to borrow money from his GF. He was still $1 short. But I let it go.
See? Deep down inside....I'm nice AF.

Yeah, I normally agree on a price up front...some people just HAVE to bargain once they're in person. I generally tell them to save our time by not bothering if they're not okay with what I want for an item.
I'll give you all the cash in my wallet ($50ish depending on how the bar is tonight) and I'll even drive down to Chicago to get them and promise to not ask for more off when we meet up. Deal?
I just ordered a new top from topsonline.com. Black Haartz Stayfast Cloth w glass window conversion. Thanks to post I saw from Jeremy, I got free shipping by mentioning the S2KI forum. Thanks, bud!
