Yep.

I was impressed by the car, considering the mountain roads I threw it at.
But at the same time, I agree that it has a different feel compared to the NB.
It's got a bit more roll and and it's a bit softer at the front than I'd like. But both are easily fixed.

That said, I've yet to put the spurs to an S2000. I owe it a fair shot before I commit to buying an NC.

the S2000 blows it away in all aspects. and no I am not being a sack rider. I just feel it offers alot more in terms of what the two cars are supposed to be.

I hear ya. I expect the AP2 to be more manic and high-strung. Either way, the last thing I want to do is buy one and find myself wanting the other. h:

don't get me wrong I wouldn't buy one without checking the competition, and the S2K isn't for everybody, ask Skelly. I just thought it did a better job at being a Roadster...dunno if that makes sense.

If you buy an s2k, you will never wish you had bought a Miata...unless you don't fit well in the s2k.

Miata interior >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> S2000 interior

But the S2K has it beat everywhere else, even for an 8 year old car. They need to redesign it finally
