Why is the s2000 loved so much and the miata looked down on so much?


They both are pretty much the same in all categories. Price, looks, handling, performance.

To be honest i think the miata has better handling stock vs stock but the S2000 has slightly more horsepower Is it on because of the beloved H on the front grille or is there something else im missing? possibly the availability of aftermarket parts and support?

Im not looking to start any shit i just want a honest discussion on this.
