Well to make a long story short, I have been obsessing over s2k's for quite a while now and I am actually contemplating selling the celi and getting one. One reason being that it has 235k miles on it. Anyways, I was just wondering if anyone knew of any sites with good info on s2ks, or if anyone could answer any of these questions.

-What's a good year to get? (yes I realize that's an extremely general question but I don't know how else to word it)
-What year did they start making them?
-What would be considered a good price on a used, but still good condition s2k

Thanks,
-Josh

dougy dougy... no no no - watch that quick finger of yours

1. Mazdas are FAR reliable vehicles, where do you get this non-sense. Working for Mazda/Nissan/Honda, I will shed my insight.

2. the Miata is the best handling roadster I've ever driven bar none. The S2k is fantastic, but for 33,000 dollars, I'd take a MS Miata anyday.

3. You said the MS Miata is already stressed out? The S2k is a 2.0 (edit: or 2.2) at EXTREMELY high compression - that engine is maxed out. The miata is running low boost to put the car into the badass catagory with the Elise and whatnot.

4. The S2k is the best built car ever, according to the testers. Of any car they've ever driven, the S2k is the best built vehicle. Even moreso the the NSX, which surprised me.

5. Dark secret - I like the MS Protege... but then again, look at my aviator and you'll see which of the two cars I bought. Give ya a hint, mine's got a 6-spd.

6. Dollar for Dollar - the MS Miata wins. Value - S2k wins. Build ability, they tie. Both are hit big. The Miata is already turbo, and the S2k is maxed as far as a N/A can get. Take your pic.

7. For my pick, I'd take the Flying M.
