I feel the same way about my S2000. I always wanted a NSX. My father in law leased an 04 and i got the pleasure of putting 2,000 miles on it in a 2 month period. He didnt care because it was a lease and 7,500 miles was allowed per year and he put 2k on it the first year. Anyways i was a little dissappointed with the power and braking of a car that cost 90k. After buying my S2000 i realized it is just as fun of car to drive as the Nsx. that is except the looks you get when in an NSX are priceless.
The S only costs low 30's vs high 80's for the Nsx. The S2000 is the most bang for the buck.

I understand the feeling. I wanted an S2000 but got practical instead at the last minute and it didn't fit me at all. I sold the practical car after 4 months and bought the S. Congratulations!

Yeah, sometimes you just need to go for it. My supervisor told me once that sometimes you just need to jump in with two feet and let it take care of itself, otherwise you're sitting on the sidelines calculating and figuring out everything wrong with the decision and never really getting anything.
Good job with the purchase, I find myself looking around for my next car... a newer S is on the list of course.

^ I don't necessarily agree with that advice, but the S2000 rocks my world.

Thanks! if your next car doesn't end up being as sharp as a S.... keep your current S for those corner craving days
