NA is cheaper to mod though, and cheaper to replace parts because so many more are out there, you can get engines for dirt cheap, or if you wreck it, buy a shell for like 1000-1500 and transfer over, great for racing because of that.
S2000 is great too but the Miata is great for a first RWD car, it's very forgiving and easy to drive at the limit, the S2000 being more powerful is more snappy.
I love both, but I still went for my MSM because of ease of driving, an older and more mature community, price, reliability, upkeep, rarity, and insurance rates. I'd get an S2000 but I'd have a hard time parting with the Miata, and keeping both wouldn't be a good choice.

well my problem is i have alway had an affinity with miatas and really really wanted an NA miata (mostly because of CE28N's miatas, which are referenced), but then moved onto NB's after i found i could find them for under $7,000
NA FTW
Although NB does look hot
But S2000s have always been amazing cars, especially once some minor suspension upgrades were performed.
of course this would just be a second car and not a daily. Keep the S4 as a daily.....
snappy might be good........................... S2K is looking good
