The AP1 with no electronic control, operated by throttle wire, revving to 9000 RPM? Or the AP2 with more torque, less knocking, and higher vehicle value?
Both sounded good, so I went to check out an S2000 that caught my eye.
AP2 with 30,000 km in a rare Deep Burgundy Metallic. It looks black but has a brown or purple sophisticated tone. “The soft top is in great condition,” they told me on the phone beforehand, but the actual thing had holes in it. And it was 5 million yen. With the maintenance I wanted, it would be 5.6 million yen.
I thought, a car with holes for 5 million yen…? But I somewhat understood when I heard that even dealer-affiliated sales companies source from dealer auctions.
The underside was clean and it was a rare color, but there was a mismatch between the condition and the price.
