What are some other cars in the ~16k range? I've always wanted a "roadster" type car. I looked at the AP2 S2000 and that seems perfect. Although it doesn't seem to be easy to find a stock.. in my opinion any mods on that car make it borderline ricer. Also prices vary quiet a lot.
Thoughts?
Maybe other cars you guys may suggest?

For 16K, you can buy a very nice late model Miata. There are many well cared for Miatas to be found and they really last forever. I bought mine new in 1996 and wouldn't part with it when I bought my 370Z. While it's obviously no where near as powerful as the Z and is a much different kind of car, it has a more comfortable ride, is less noisy and visibility is better. In 15 years, I've had absolutely no trouble with mine and I suggest it is a perfect "first sports car" for a young person. Very affordable to own and very enjoyable to drive.
