Daaaayuummm!!! The exhaust note is better than an F1 car, build quality and fit / finish is superb, and the car handles... well, you know. Please talk me down...

We've all been tempted, and a few here actually bought one.
Nobody should talk you down. Probably the best value in the sports car world, and only getting better. Motors seem to handle high mileage well, Honda durability, strong aftermarket. As long as you don't mind the occasional engine fire and random snap oversteer incidents, you should be golden. :D
You also have to life with the fact that the car has no soul.

The S still makes me giggle when it hits Vtec.
Hard pressed these days to find a pristine S2K that hasn't been on fire or that has had the living shit modded out of by some hella flush kid like Robert..... ::hal::
I want to ride in the S again to hear Robert giggle! ;)Quote:

Not sure if that is an overstatement or legit.
I will keep the Miata for at least five years. My wife and I are trying to "right size" our life and a new (used) car is diametrically opposed to that goal. It would be really nice though. Really nice. Really really nice.
Meh... buy one... I've enjoyed mine for the last 10 years... Was it an AP1 or an AP2?Quote:
