You're not going to find a front-engined (or, indeed, many if any mid- or rear-engined) cars that have the front fenders/hood as low as an S2000's. A Miata is on stilts in comparison, they HAVE to be brought down an inch to look like a proper low-slung sports car. Alas, so will the FR-S/BRZ... I blame the front struts as much as modern pedestrian impact standards (which are likely at least somewhat gotten around by the flat-4 engine).
