I almost did this. Almost bought a low mileage AP2 S2000 with a hardtop which would have been much less expensive. But it just wasn't as fun to drive and even though it's a stiff chasis for a convertible, I could tell there was some flex in it.
Put better tires on the BRZ and I think it would be a much closer battle. But who cares? Even on HPDEs I'm not trying to lap my car 0.2s faster than the next car, I'm just out having fun. The BRZ does this very very well, better than the S2000 (and a lot of other cars) IMHO.
