Its very hard to call a 1g car, all power unless that 1g can only be had in track conditions. The Z plays a dual role that most cars can't. It can handle as rugged on streets as it can on track and still maintain high "G's".
The S2k is a hot fkin car. Price to performance, its an excellent car. The S2k is a low horse race car in its purest form as is the miata. That's something the Z isn't, at least comparing the stock cars.
If I were buying a open top car? I would probably buy an S2k over a Z convertible. But I generally hate converibles and don't like 4 cylinder engines as a whole unless they are seriously turbo'd, so I drive a Z. That still doesn't take away the fact the S2k is one of the greatest JDM cars ever built.
Imho, the Z isn't one of the greatest JDM cars ever built its the runner up to the GT-R, which is the greatest JDM car ever built. When the Z gets DCT and 2 massive turbo's. It will then be the greatest in my book! Till then? The Z is second best and nothing Fks with the GT-R.
PS. Some of you expect too much from the "Z" forum, when it comes to objectivity. Its only natural that people will say the Z trumps all. Unless its the Ford Mustang. "The Mustang is, the Chuck Norris of the car world"
