Brakes/rotors alone cost you $300 for regular parts. Struts/shocks cost you another 300-400 when it comes to replacing.
If you do get one, be sure to check out the electrical. It's hard to diagnose once you have electrical problems.
I have fun driving the car, prefer it much over most hondas, s2000 are good in handling, but no torque.
