Dang, how'd I miss this thread? As a Miata owner, I'm biased but understand the appeal of the S2000. I'm just not a fan of the torqueless VTEC. Then again, my miata has been "upgraded" with a turbo kit from Flyin' Miata .

230 HP to the wheels (not crank) is pretty fun in a 2300 lb car. I do have a '90 Miata though but they're pretty similar though it's not as nice in the interior.

As for car audio upgrades, I've had Polk, Boston Acoustics, and MB quart and was satisfied with all of them.
