I would consider the Miata a sportscar and the S2000 a race car. There is that big of difference in my opinion between them -- assuming both are stock. There are compromises you have to make, the biggest I would say is in the area of handling. The Miata is more forgiving. The second is acceleration, with the S2000 coming alive at 6000 rpms. If you are comfortable really pushing your Miata at the limit, then you should really enjoy the S2000. But if you are more at home with a nice drive in the cournty, then I think you'd be better off with the Miata.
At any given RPM the S has significantly more torque than the Miata, and just feels stronger. The biggest difference for me is how stiff and rigid the S feels. the Miata is not even in the same league.
