I remember driving a friend's miata in college. I'm 6'3 and my head peeked just above the top of the windshield but I remember having nothing but fun driving that car. I need to find one again. They are just a blast to drive.
Yes, I've owned two Miatas. One for the street, and one for just road-racing. Both Miatas were quite well built, and the engines and transmissions are bullet proof. Not many sports cars can handle as well as the little Mazda. My brother owns a Z06 Corabeth, and even his car is a few seconds slower than my 2nd generation Miata. Its not about horsepower, its all about a perfectly executed engineering design for a performance sports car. America just can't come close. Miata/MX-5!
so many senseless comments its not up to the car , the driver makes the difference damnit a clearly example of it its keichi tsuchiya he can own us in a go-kart while we are driving a Lamborghini I:T
@ mucura1 up until today, I had never heard of an s2000. I had heard of miatas, and seen them too. Stop thinking with your butt. They quit making s2000's because they couldn't handle the competition.
Why are there so many 'S2000 would own a Miata!' comments? So what! A Porsche 911 would own an S2000, and a Veyron would own a 911; it's a stupid argument!
I used to own an MX-5, now I own an S2000, and although I'm not an experienced driver as I'm only 23, in my eyes they are both great cars. And the MX-5 is quicker on some roads. And no that's not BS!
@sleepwalker29 WRONG! go hit a few books my friend Mazda had never been owned by ford. They had a small stake much less than 50% and now the share is even lower down to like a 16% Ford sold part of the share to save it's butt from bankruptcy.
@MiamiMiataGroupInc 1990 Ford Probe had a Mazda 3.0 V6. Mazda Navaho and Explorer, are the same car. So yea in the day they owned the company. Probably not to day, but what ever you did say Mazda had less than 50% share in the company.
this is probably the perfect convertible - just fast enough, cheap reliable and not that bad on gas. i would opt for one of these over one of those cheezy porshe's
Well first off, I dont know why you keep yapping about torque....torque is only has good as its gears, which the stock mazda severely lacks. Secondly the honda, is just as upgradeable as the mazda, and last time I checked its not that hard to add torque to a honda with aftermarket parts. Have you ever driven an s2000. I bet 1000 dollars you would not even know how to use the vtec or even what it does for the car let alone that honda spent 7 years perfecting a 9000 rpm perf tuned car.
Yes I had the chance to drive both back to back enjoyed an S2K for two years and there is a reason why the S2K went LOL. No matter how much time honda spends building a sports car it always been about the same results. They never make it right no Honda sports car ever makes it past 10 years they always die before LOL. Perhaps they should quit trying and failing so much. Honda had always been about building grocery getters like civics and accords, they are not sports car or even resemble one.
@MiamiMiataGroupInc the reason honda sports cars only have 10 year runs is because they dont bother upgrading them. The NSX sent ferrari and lamborghini back to the drawing board. The S2000 sent Porsche and BMW to redesign their cars from all show to actual track preformers. Granted they dont stay competitive but for a 20 year old car the NSX still beats out alot of other modern day sports cars around the track. The s2000 still holds its own despite being a 10 year old design.
@MiamiMiataGroupInc the civic was always made as a econobox nothing more. If you expect it to compete with perfomance cars than you are truly the idiot i thought you were. Yes the miata engine is anemic. "I gots torque!!! but yeah im a full 1.5 seconds slower than a s2000. At least my car handles better....oh wait it doesnt do that either. At least mine is cheaper." You get what you pay for. The s2000 is a much better performing roadster. Torks or not.
@mucura1 An S2K a better roadster LOL. You kidding right? Honda has yet to build an identity at the track, road course that is, I have yet to see a video of an S2K beating car costing twice as much money, where those kinds of Miata videos are quite abundant, I have seen videos of Miatas burring alive an S2k at the track and in the turns but yet to see it the other way around, go do some research fun boy.
@MiamiMiataGroupInc so you base facts on auto performance on youtube videos. *facepalm* In that case you better watch out! I saw a crx from 1988 beat a lamborighini!!! Thoses things are so fast stock!!!! Just because some asshole modded his miata to beat a s2k doesnt not mean someone could not do the same to a s2k. Stock for stock s2k>miata. I dont see where its that hard to understand that.
@mucura1 Youtube videos LOL U R funny I give U that but thank U 4 the free entertainment U provide to me. I base my facts in stuff yU can see like videos, TV shows, and automobile magazines. I don't see why is hard to understand the Miata is the biggest success story of the 2, while nobody talks about the S2K the Miata is the talk of most automobile magazines and videos, it has graced magazines pages 4 years, It was grassroots motorsports car of the year, Part of the 60 coolest cars in 60 years
@MiamiMiataGroupInc so your logic is that because the s2000 is no longer in production then by default your miata is superior? Last time i checked the Supra wasnt in production anymore yet can probably outhandle both our cars and leave us in the dust at the strip. RX7, 300ZX, etc. All awesome cars that are no longer in production. Second in which automagazine have you ever seen them state that a s2000 is inferior to a miata stock for stock performance wise?
@mucura1 I wasn't talking about who was inferior or who was superior jackass, when a car is good to the point it makes magazines and people talk, that's what the Miata has been doing for years, media wise the S2K have been dead for years because it failed to impress automotive journalists around the world the way a Miata did. Sorry dude but those a real world facts that you or not one can deny. The Miata has more recognitions and awards around the world and S2K can only dream of having.
@MiamiMiataGroupInc Last time i checked the s2000 has had alot of awards worldwide. It sent bwm and porsche back to the drawing board and it took them 10 years to slightly edge out the s2000 on a track perfomance level with their roadsters. No miata has done that. The miata is a cheap convertible, that is light and handles good. Anyone under the sun could own one hence why its still so popular. S2000 is more pricey and not for everyone. But performance wise? S2k>miata. Just accept that fact.
@mucura1 Porsche and BMW were scared. WOW that was when? like 10 years ago? That is called initial splash when S2K came out, besides introduction it has been dead in the media the last 8 years nobody said shit about it. Miata "top 10 reasons 2 hit the track" car & driver list included, Porsche, Ferarri, Vette, Viper and others no S2K . 60 coolest car 4 the last 60 years Motor Trend September no S2K Best driver's car M T October 09. Miata ranked 3rd only bested by Porsche and Audi R8. no S2k.
@mucura1 Youtube videos LOL U R funny I give U that but thank U 4 the free entertainment U provide to me. I base my facts in stuff yU can see like videos, TV shows, and automobile magazines.

@mucura1 Blahh blaah! blaah! 88 crx, lame excuses blah blah blah. I can't lose an argument so I will bring up even crappier hondas to the talk. LOL I feel sorry for you honda fanboys who think Hondas and Vtech are first class cars. Reason why I will always be ready bury any honda that gets in my way, just show them the Zoom Zoom way and how it gets done.
@MiamiMiataGroupInc so now you go as far as cover your ears and scream :"LALALALALA" because you are losing the arguement. You said the miata was a better performance roadster than the s2000. i called BS retorted to your comment but your a mazda fanboy that wont listen to common sense. So you come up with other bullshit arguements which i destroyed yet you still claim victory. Its cool you like your miata so much but its not a better performance vehicile than the s2000 and thats a fact.
@mucura1 The Miata has been referred 2 as the most fun U can get 4 your money under 30 grands and is the one most manufacturers look at to build their competition, you know very well that the S2K was an imitation of the original roadster and sport car the Miata I can assure U Honda had 2 get a Miata and study its roots wonder about their success if there is a car that made quite a splash and made others pay close attention it was the Miata not the S2K a distant second 10 years later. Too late
@MiamiMiataGroupInc A stock s2k will run a similar track time to a base corvette stock for stock depending on the year. Last time i checked the corvette was about double the price to the s2k. Sure the s2k now isnt as performancely peaked as it was years ago with all the new offerings out. but it took other automakers 10 years to make vehicles that slightly outpreform the s2k in the same market of roadsters. Some dont even do that *coughs* miata *coughs*.
The Miata is what it is because Mazda want's it to be that way is not a performance car I agree and it doesn't need to be. This car have anything available to take it to that level and destroy your beloved S2K but that is up to individual Miata owners, the Miata is hundreds of pounds lighter and makes more torque than and S2K requiring less power to eat an s2k for lunch, Mazda has done the right thing keep it fun simple and affordable something Honda failed to do. Case closed.
I dont hate the miata at all. I just hate mazda fanboys who think their mazda shit dont stink. The miata is a cruiser car. Its a car you drop the top and enjoy a basic drive. The s2000 is a performance roadster designed to destroy the turns at high end and be fun to drive. The miata is not a performance car at all, end of discussion. Yet you miata fanboys want to talk shit about the s2000 being torqueless with your anemic engines? lol.
@sleepwalker29 in what aspect smoke? you mean 1/4 mile? Your a full 1.5 seconds slower than the s2000 stock for stock. The prelude and s2000 were not made for quarter mile acceleration. If you bought one to drag. you bought the wrong car. You should have bought a muscle car. both of these cars excel in overall performance at the track however the s2000 destroys your lude at the track. So unless your playing the modding game STFU.
@mucura1 If you call muscle this canadian crap on my channel called a Comaro, then kiss it, because GM is not domestic. So what are you referring to? If you think my old Prelude is still stock after 15 years your just dumb. Also saying a S2000 will distroy a Prelude at the track is like saying the guy with the new car payments can afford to dump more into his engine than the guy that has his paid off. LOL
@sleepwalker29 s2000 can be had for sub 10,000 dollars now. Im pretty sure there are plenty of s2000s that are paid off. So again your a dumbass. Oh yeah a 1988 crx costs 900 dollars now. With some mods it can beat both a s2000 and a prelude. So the crx owner owns a better car right? oh wait thats right he owns a shitty crx. Just like you own a shitty ass 95 prelude and trying to compare it to my purpose track built sports car. Yeah you won the internets with that logic.
@mucura1 my purpose track built sports car. LOL you ain't in this video. How do I know what you have? Did I see your ride, and knock it? Didn't think so! Track built, thats funny. Be real funny if I had a performance shop, and a 800hp 95 300ZX twin turbo, with a roll cage. Track equiped! LOL
@sleepwalker29 so i dont get it? You talk shit about your prelude beating a car stock. I claim your full of shit unless modded. You say its modded. I say your a idiot for comparing a modded car to a stock one but even if the performance is better you still drive a econobox. You say some obscure dumbass comment claiming that you have a track car yet you thought you were hot shit with a 95 prelude. Maybe you and MiamiMiatagroupinc can flock together in his homosexual chariot.
keep amusing me fanboys. Tell me how much torque you got against a s2000 despite you drive a powerless miata. Tell me about the retractible hardtop that weighs down the car and makes a already slow car even slower. Tell me about the greatness of rotatries while RX8 owners are in class action lawsuits for engine flooding. Tell me about the RX7 which is the only mazda car i would respect and own and pretend that just because mazda built one car that is good that i will take back what i said.
I'll have to disagree on this one both cars have balls but you don't neither do a brain, if the S2K is so great why is not as big in SCCA spec race series as a Miata is ? Hold it here who is the spec racer with a Playboy Sponsorship? Spec Miata Race is a Business a franchise where is the S2K here? you are an ignorant dirt bag. The Miata is a superior Spec racer in every label, the Miata race success proofs my point the Miata is a better circuit car Period.
who started talking about SCCA spec racing? Where is mazdas f1 team? Miata is inferior to the s2000 stock for stock. If you like the miata fine thats cool. But a miata is not better than a s2000 in looks (which may be subjective, power (fact), track performance (fact), and resale value (fact). The only thing mazda got going on for itsself is that its cheap, as it should be cause i wouldnt pay much for one. Your anger amuses me however so i will continue to bring you back down to earth.
LOL Mucura1 What an idiot. Your eyes are glued shot to your face, Where is your sorry as S2K Ohh! I think is in Roadster heaven holding hands with the sky and solstice twins, That's what copy cat companies get in the end a crashing end LOL. The original roadster in the 90's is the Miata S2K nothing more than a copy. Poor little honda, RIP. Ricers will stay away from hondas. LOL
um whether or not it has been discontiued or not does not equate to the s2000 being inferior in performance to a miata. The supra, 300zx was discontinued but that hasnt made any of those two cars any less than the beasts they are. The s2000 is clearly more vehicle than a miata will ever hope to be. Its a baby f1 car. A street legal go cart. The miata is just a roadster with no balls. A cruiser car nothing more. Keep your anemic miata but do not speak out your ass about performance.
They neeeeeeeeeeeeeeedd to put the Speed 3 engine in it. In fact Mazda should include the speed 3 engine in all mx5s. That would really make the car fun! Please Email Mazda and let them know...
Here in Canada, Boxster goes from 60,000$ to 78,000$, while the MX5 is sold 40,000$ fully equiped (base price is 29,000$). Just to add up some infos for everybody: the profit margin of the dealer for an MX5, as of 2009, is 10,78% (WAY higher than most other dealers take from there cars). The car has been on the market for over 15 years, so there's no reason why it should be this high. As for the Boxter, Porshe is not giving numbers. I assure you that 10% is a VERY large profit margin for Mazda.
Mazda's roadster is an entry level car, while the Boxster is a luxury intermediate level roadster. It is like comparing a Ford Ranger to an F150, it can't be done. But there are no other entry level roadsters on the market. There once was the Solstice, the Sky (in america (which is a continent, not a country)) and the Opel GT. Well, it could be placed in the same category then a mini cooper cabrio or a VW new beetle cabrio, while the boxster is more in the league of the 370Z , the Z4 or the SLK
I don't believe the MX5 to be a direct competitor to any Porshe and I'm prety confident Mazda's making money with it. It isnt underprized. The Solstice was an all aluminum car with hydroformed parts and was around the same market price. In one of my new 2010 autoguides, it is written the percentage of money a company makes by selling a car and I don't remember seeing any mazda taking a final cut below 7% (I'll have to check it back.I left the book at my job). By the way, I love the new hard top*
The reason why I love the Miata is because it's the only "traditional British roadster" in todays market, off course made by Japanese. Such a great drive and a car only a true driver can appreciate. People who say that this a chic car don't know the automotive history and is obviously uninformed.
Hey Joe next time you open the door on the mx5 why don't you be more careful. Slamming the door on its hinges surely is not good for the door hinges, douchebag.
The only way an S2000 is better than a Miata is at getting stolen. No thank you I'll pass. I'll take a Miata over the dead S2K anyday. Hondas don't make any torque any Mazda can beat any Honda out of the hole from a standing start as Mazda cars make more torque. LOL
LOL! you clearly have no idea do you? A s2000 is much superior to a miata both on the track and a all out drag race. You need research before you post idiotic comments. Now if you like the miata much more than the s2000 thats cool. But dont think anyone will call you out on your bullshit statement. Miata owners have no place to talk about torque considering they are slower than the s2000 both track and drag stock for stock.
haha i know man these miatas guys crack me up s2k pulls better gs,braking,acceleration,topspeed,top end,power,handling and would smoke it around any track road atlanta,vir,buttonwillow and etc shit this one in the vid cast 31k lol thats a CR s2k thread/
lol these miata guys come up with the most idiotic defenses i have heard. The sad part is i kinda like the miata if it were just a tad faster and didnt look as gay but when people start talking about performance being better than a s2k i have to bring them back down to earth. Mazda fanboys got serious reality issues.
I know this is a great car... but I think ill ebarrased to be seen driving one of this. I think they should get reed of his girly look. and make it more sporty looking.
Miata is better in terms of everyday use and running cost. I know S2000 is a dream to drive, but it's in the same case as the Lotus Elise or the Renault F1, good on paper, great on tracks, yet totally unnecessary when you are stuck in the middle of traffic for two hours everyday.
What a gay car.

An S2000 was meant to be a raunchier alternative to a quintessential British Miata
If you had a say, Lotus and you were being laughed at for your modified Toyota, you'd obviously get...wait, there's an Exige, dammit .
But point still stands, as the two were meant for different people, the S2000 is great, but it isn't that simple fun driving car the Miata is.

You said the miata was a better performance roadster than the s2000. i called BS retorted to your comment but your a mazda fanboy that wont listen to common sense. So you come up with other bullshit arguements which i destroyed yet you still claim victory. Its cool you like your miata so much but its not a better performance vehicile than the s2000 and thats a fact.

@mucura1 The Miata has been referred 2 as the most fun U can get 4 your money under 30 grands and is the one most manufacturers look at to build their competition, you know very well that the S2K was an imitation of the original roadster and sport car the Miata I can assure U Honda had 2 get a Miata and study its roots wonder about their success if there is a car that made quite a splash and made others pay close attention it was the Miata not the S2K a distant second 10 years later. Too late

@MiamiMiataGroupInc A stock s2k will run a similar track time to a base corvette stock for stock depending on the year. Last time i checked the corvette was about double the price to the s2k. Sure the s2k now isnt as performancely peaked as it was years ago with all the new offerings out. but it took other automakers 10 years to make vehicles that slightly outpreform the s2k in the same market of roadsters. Some dont even do that *coughs* miata *coughs*.
mucura1 1 year ago
The Miata is what it is because Mazda want's it to be that way is not a performance car I agree and it doesn't need to be. This car have anything available to take it to that level and destroy your beloved S2K but that is up to individual Miata owners, the Miata is hundreds of pounds lighter and makes more torque than and S2K requiring less power to eat an s2k for lunch, Mazda has done the right thing keep it fun simple and affordable something Honda failed to do. Case closed.

The Miata is a very affordable fun car, as intended.

I dont hate the miata at all. I just hate mazda fanboys who think their mazda shit dont stink. The miata is a cruiser car. Its a car you drop the top and enjoy a basic drive. The s2000 is a performance roadster designed to destroy the turns at high end and be fun to drive. The miata is not a performance car at all, end of discussion. Yet you miata fanboys want to talk shit about the s2000 being torqueless with your anemic engines? lol.

@mucura1 My 95 Prelude SI 2.3 will smoke a S2000.
sleepwalker29 1 year ago
@sleepwalker29 in what aspect smoke? you mean 1/4 mile? Your a full 1.5 seconds slower than the s2000 stock for stock. The prelude and s2000 were not made for quarter mile acceleration. If you bought one to drag. you bought the wrong car. You should have bought a muscle car. both of these cars excel in overall performance at the track however the s2000 destroys your lude at the track. So unless your playing the modding game STFU.
mucura1 1 year ago
@mucura1 If you call muscle this canadian crap on my channel called a Comaro, then kiss it, because GM is not domestic. So what are you referring to? If you think my old Prelude is still stock after 15 years your just dumb. Also saying a S2000 will distroy a Prelude at the track is like saying the guy with the new car payments can afford to dump more into his engine than the guy that has his paid off. LOL
sleepwalker29 1 year ago
@sleepwalker29 s2000 can be had for sub 10,000 dollars now. Im pretty sure there are plenty of s2000s that are paid off. So again your a dumbass. Oh yeah a 1988 crx costs 900 dollars now. With some mods it can beat both a s2000 and a prelude. So the crx owner owns a better car right? oh wait thats right he owns a shitty crx. Just like you own a shitty ass 95 prelude and trying to compare it to my purpose track built sports car. Yeah you won the internets with that logic.
mucura1 1 year ago
@mucura1 my purpose track built sports car. LOL you ain't in this video. How do I know what you have? Did I see your ride, and knock it? Didn't think so! Track built, thats funny. Be real funny if I had a performance shop, and a 800hp 95 300ZX twin turbo, with a roll cage. Track equiped! LOL
sleepwalker29 1 year ago
@sleepwalker29 so i dont get it? You talk shit about your prelude beating a car stock. I claim your full of shit unless modded. You say its modded. I say your a idiot for comparing a modded car to a stock one but even if the performance is better you still drive a econobox. You say some obscure dumbass comment claiming that you have a track car yet you thought you were hot shit with a 95 prelude. Maybe you and MiamiMiatagroupinc can flock together in his homosexual chariot.
mucura1 1 year ago
keep amusing me fanboys. Tell me how much torque you got against a s2000 despite you drive a powerless miata. Tell me about the retractible hardtop that weighs down the car and makes a already slow car even slower. Tell me about the greatness of rotatries while RX8 owners are in class action lawsuits for engine flooding. Tell me about the RX7 which is the only mazda car i would respect and own and pretend that just because mazda built one car that is good that i will take back what i said.
mucura1 2 years ago
I'll have to disagree on this one both cars have balls but you don't neither do a brain, if the S2K is so great why is not as big in SCCA spec race series as a Miata is ? Hold it here who is the spec racer with a Playboy Sponsorship? Spec Miata Race is a Business a franchise where is the S2K here? you are an ignorant dirt bag. The Miata is a superior Spec racer in every label, the Miata race success proofs my point the Miata is a better circuit car Period.
MiamiMiataGroupInc 2 years ago
who started talking about SCCA spec racing? Where is mazdas f1 team? Miata is inferior to the s2000 stock for stock. If you like the miata fine thats cool. But a miata is not better than a s2000 in looks (which may be subjective, power (fact), track performance (fact), and resale value (fact). The only thing mazda got going on for itsself is that its cheap, as it should be cause i wouldnt pay much for one. Your anger amuses me however so i will continue to bring you back down to earth.

dcin1 2 years ago
um whether or not it has been discontiued or not does not equate to the s2000 being inferior in performance to a miata. The supra, 300zx was discontinued but that hasnt made any of those two cars any less than the beasts they are. The s2000 is clearly more vehicle than a miata will ever hope to be. Its a baby f1 car. A street legal go cart. The miata is just a roadster with no balls. A cruiser car nothing more. Keep your anemic miata but do not speak out your ass about performance.

mucura1 2 years ago
Here in Canada, Boxster goes from 60,000$ to 78,000$, while the MX5 is sold 40,000$ fully equiped (base price is 29,000$). Just to add up some infos for everybody: the profit margin of the dealer for an MX5, as of 2009, is 10,78% (WAY higher than most other dealers take from there cars). The car has been on the market for over 15 years, so there's no reason why it should be this high. As for the Boxter, Porshe is not giving numbers. I assure you that 10% is a VERY large profit margin for Mazda.
sebast007 2 years ago
Mazda's roadster is an entry level car, while the Boxster is a luxury intermediate level roadster. It is like comparing a Ford Ranger to an F150, it can't be done. But there are no other entry level roadsters on the market. There once was the Solstice, the Sky (in america (which is a continent, not a country)) and the Opel GT. Well, it could be placed in the same category then a mini cooper cabrio or a VW new beetle cabrio, while the boxster is more in the league of the 370Z , the Z4 or the SLK
sebast007 2 years ago
I don't believe the MX5 to be a direct competitor to any Porshe and I'm prety confident Mazda's making money with it. It isnt underprized. The Solstice was an all aluminum car with hydroformed parts and was around the same market price. In one of my new 2010 autoguides, it is written the percentage of money a company makes by selling a car and I don't remember seeing any mazda taking a final cut below 7% (I'll have to check it back.I left the book at my job). By the way, I love the new hard top*

The reason why I love the Miata is because it's the only "traditional British roadster" in todays market, off course made by Japanese. Such a great drive and a car only a true driver can appreciate. People who say that this a chic car don't know the automotive history and is obviously uninformed.

The only way an S2000 is better than a Miata is at getting stolen. No thank you I'll pass. I'll take a Miata over the dead S2K anyday. Hondas don't make any torque any Mazda can beat any Honda out of the hole from a standing start as Mazda cars make more torque. LOL
MiamiMiataGroupInc 2 years ago
LOL! you clearly have no idea do you? A s2000 is much superior to a miata both on the track and a all out drag race. You need research before you post idiotic comments. Now if you like the miata much more than the s2000 thats cool. But dont think anyone will call you out on your bullshit statement. Miata owners have no place to talk about torque considering they are slower than the s2000 both track and drag stock for stock.

haha i know man these miatas guys crack me up s2k pulls better gs,braking,acceleration,topspeed,top end,power,handling and would smoke it around any track road atlanta,vir,buttonwillow and etc shit this one in the vid cast 31k lol thats a CR s2k thread/

lol these miata guys come up with the most idiotic defenses i have heard. The sad part is i kinda like the miata if it were just a tad faster and didnt look as gay but when people start talking about performance being better than a s2k i have to bring them back down to earth. Mazda fanboys got serious reality issues.
mucura1 2 years ago
The Miata has a pretty stiff base, it actually handles very well in twists and turns. It was actually surprising when I got to test drive one.
Not the quickest car in the world, nor does anything actually stand out about the car but it does handle better than a lot of its competitors.

Miata is better in terms of everyday use and running cost. I know S2000 is a dream to drive, but it's in the same case as the Lotus Elise or the Renault F1, good on paper, great on tracks, yet totally unnecessary when you are stuck in the middle of traffic for two hours everyday.
