I'll probably ruffle a few feathers but I don't know that I'd call the Solstice/Sky "arguably better". Perhaps if it wasn't killed prematurely & had a generation or so to refine itself.

S2000, was much pricier than the Miata of it's time. The MR-S was about as close as anyone's gotten to "a Miata that's not a Miata" & I think it should still be in production.
