Turbo Miata, s2000, boxster which to buy? Need opinions!
So my daily driver just recently sh*t the bed and I'm now looking for something fun to replace it. I also just sold my Lamborghini Espada so I have some money but not looking to blow it all on a car. Anyways here's my dilemma, I've been looking for a two seater roadster that I can daily drive. My drive is only about 5 miles every day with the exception of two "long" 40min drives into baltimore a week. I want something fun, reliable, and cheap. All cars will be driven in the winter with snow tires. So here's the cars of choice, first would be a turbo miata that I can pick up for around $4,000. The next would be a rebuilt title s2000 with 150k and 70k on the engine for $6,000. Or a rebuilt title boxster with 36k for $5,500. I would appreciate your input! -Michael

If the other choices are rebuilt titles I'd lean more towards the miata.....
I have a 94 miata and love it. Parts are cheap and it's easy to work on. Huge community to be a part of as well. I'm not sure I'd want to commute it everyday though. The interior on the S2k is a lot nicer. My vote would be for the S2k if it wasn't a rebuilt title. That would make a great reliable daily!

slightly biased opinion here. But I do love my 2k, I loved driving it to/from work until it snowed.
