IMHO the S2000 was superior in build quality at just about every step of the process. The build quality of the Twins, for me, is closer to a $16,000 econobox. But hey, the damn thing is fun to drive.

And if you think about it we did pay a premium for some "driver enthusiast" toys like:

RWD
D4S
And what's proving to be a very robust engine/transmission/differential combination.

They had to cheapen out somewhere.
