There is a very vocal group that will defend the s2000 to their dying breath. Many of them have never owned or driven the car. They just "heard" it was the best ever. The Toyota Supra and the 2JZ engine has the same type following. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that or feeling like that either. (Yes, I do see you own one.)
I had an Integra GSR.....loved it. I have a 2ZZ MR-S.....love it. I went and test drove an s2000 back in 2001 when I had the opportunity to buy one new. I didn't love it. Back then I was lusting over a 1995 RX-7 for a bit less than what they wanted for the s2000 and I thought the s2000 did not measure up in comparison. That and the fact that I just did not fit very well in the Honda. In the long run, I ended up buying neither. I kept the GSR for a while and then bought a 350Z a couple years later.
It is funny in a way because I constantly read on here about guys that are comparing used s2000s to the FR-S/BRZ/GT86 and it reminds me of what I was doing 16 years ago.
By the way, I did own 2 Supra including a turbo. I didn't love them either so maybe it is just me.
