As to the miata vs s2k comments, i disagree also. I love my car and am proud of it. I looked at the miata, and really didn't have the same love of the car that I do with the S. I bought it b/c of the passion in the heritage, the love of Honda and the fact that the car speaks to me. I could make a $1500 MKiii supra run circles around my S for the $20k I paid for mine, but I'd still be more proud to drive the S. Tell me 1 miata owner who's had exotic car owners sit in the drivers seat and show the same love of the car that I do. My boss drives a 7 series and a 911 turbo and was blown away by how the car was a true sports car that reminded him of the overall feel of his 911 (granted, different caliber cars...but a powerful statement none the less). All I'm saying is when you get to certain income levels and are still a car nut, you buy a car because you love it as a whole...not because of image, power, cost, etc. That's why I bought the S. Anyone on here who knows me personally knows I live very well and to compare the S2000 with a $1500 miata is rather insulting. It's like comparing an RSX-s to a 5th gen Civic or a Lotus Elise to an early model MR-2. Very different cars IMHO.
