wish they would compare the car to "out of its league" kind of cars like the 911 or ferrari. obviously, it's not going to beat them, but i think it would interesting to see how it measures up to the best.

What does he mean by:

"the small matter of almost 130bhp extra in favour of the used Honda might just swing it for anyone with a serious need for speed"

Does the UK MX-5 only come with 110bhp as standard? The US market MX-5 has around 168hp or so, or about 72bhp difference.

Love the S2k/Miata comparison test...

One line and the Miata was history....

Tends to be true in real life, also.

Those narrow-minded fockers that say the S2000 makes a poor daily-driver have never read anything on these forums.

I think by "top notch" stereo, he was referring to the dual exhaust!
...the stock exhaust doesn't emit that much noise either But as far as the article goes I daily drive my 2k and would have it any other way..After daily driving my car for almost a year now...nothing else comes close, going to the store is not a commute...it's an experience
