Ahh, gotcha. Thats a shame, my dream car is a miata which I've always wanted to daily drive, and I tend to think of the s2000 similarly since they're a lot alike in many respects
Miatas are pretty similar, but modern ones have some nice advantages! It's rated for 25/35 mpg, for example, and unlike a lot of car makers Mazda's fuel economy numbers are pretty realistic. A Miata isn't going to be as painful to drive in traffic, either. Not unless you modify it or something.
My dream car is an NA, so a bit less practical lol, but I still desperately want one
Also the clutch doesn't require much force to engage, and 1st gear seems pretty forgiving, at least on the NDs. I can't say I enjoy driving in traffic, but it's not too bad
It's a shame the MR2 isn't made anymore.
