Sad to say, I sold my 1994 NSX (#49) back in the end of April. It was a great 3.5 years that I had her, but after watching the real estate market boom here in Southern California (25-30% growth) over the last few years, I decided it probably was better that I owned more property rather than a beautiful car.
Well, I wound selling the car, buying a place, (this is the funny part) and bought a Miata to replace the NSX. Becuase I didnt want to be without a "fun car". I wound up buying an old Miata figuring I would tinker with it, and have fun with that. Well.. 7 months later, I'm bored with it now. Hmmmm.. wonder why. Anyhow, becuase the market has done so well in the last few months, I have decided to jumpback in and get rid of the Miata and get a car with a little more umph. I was thinking about buying an NSX again, but decided to keep the money in the stock and real estate market for a few more years so Ill have enough for the new one. (fingers crossed) I figured the S2000 was the next best thing. Everyone who I have read talk about the S2000 has said its a baby NSX. I found a couple good deals on a few S2000 and I was wondering if anyone here has (or have had) both an NSX and an S2000?
I have read countless articles about people complaining about the torque on the cars, and that basically you have to really really wind them up before they start to perform. Is this really frustrating in day to day driving? Is it that bad? No one ever has complained about the handling, so I assume its on par or simliar to an NSX. is this true?
Thanks for the help.
