I'm not trolling. Just a genuine discussion thread.

I have thought about getting an S2000 but there are a few things that I do not like about it. It's getting more and more expensive as time goes on. Good for resale, bad for buying. Another thing is I want to have a very nice audio system in my 350Z, something the S2000 and Miata cannot achieve unless major work is done. And the 350Z has more torque, but probably handles worse than the S2000. There's some stuff I'm willing to part with and a soft top is easily one of them. I got lucky and didn't get any rain drip in my car today when it rained. Last time my passenger seat got a nice puddle in it when I left it outside.

 

You can buy a hardtop for the S2000, but it probably still won't be as good as a Z sounds wise...

 

I understand that. Same goes with my Miata. I could buy a hard top to get better sound quality but the cabin space is limited, and a subwoofer is out of the question for my car. Now when I say sound quality I'm not talking about I want the hardest hitting subs so my car rattles to pieces and **** off my fellow motorists, those people bug me to no end.

When I had my previous car, 1994 Honda Civic, I only had four speakers and it sounded great. I didn't even need a woofer. Then I put the same door speakers into my car and it sounds horrendous. I did not know how important sound quality was to me until it was taken away.

Don't get me wrong the S2000's are a really great car, but I don't think it's the car for me. I need torque and a fixed roof. Especially where I live now soft tops don't last that long.

 

i thought you were a girl...but anyway the Miata should be built for autox

 

Whats so wrong about the miata? They are fun as hell to drive.

 

MY 350ZR sounds amazing with the stock Bose system with top up or down. But I listen to the exhaust most of the time anyway

 

I would of had a NB Mazdaspeed insted of my Z but my wife said she would stop sleeping with me LOL.

 

Get yourself a Subaru BR-Z and hate your car no longer.

 

The stock stereo in my Z is pretty shitty. My friends NB Miata with the bose package blows the Z's system out of the water. Some Z's did come with a Bose package though so maybe those are better IDK though I've never been in one.

 

This is a really good thing though because it means we are able to find mostly stock and well taken care of Z's for sale all the time. That's almost impossible to do in the STI/EVO world. All of those cars that come up for sale have been beat to poop already.

 

Save up your $5000, then save up another $5000 and keep both lol
I've never drove a miata, but I drove a s2000 and I'm assuming they handle the same. That car is too fun to get rid of, I wouldn't buy it personally, but if I already had it I would keep it for a lifetime lol
