Nah. Go with a Miata and an MP5 instead of the S2000 and an MP5 combo.

S2000 is a fantastic car, but the Mazda Miata is the one that brought the roadster back. BMW (Z3), Mercedes (SLK), Honda (S2000), and Toyota (MR Spyder) all followed.

Miata has gone through more revisions than any of these cars and it is supremely refined. Plus, you can use the savings difference and mod the wazoo out of it because Miatas have decent aftermarket support.

I actually drug both car seats and both little ones to the dealer showroom plopped them in and checked out the fit I came from a base model Jetta. Took me about a month after the 2nd baby. You will not find more bang for the buck. Only thing I miss on the Jetta was the much nicer 5speed.

hehe, you could be right...I guess time will tell, maybe thats why Im still lurking on the board.

dynamho, I did like the miata alot as well....but that S2000 just seems to fit me perfectly. When I sit in one, I feel like it was custom made for me. Budget wise though, the Miata may be more my speed, but hey I gotta dream.
