Since i was a new driver, i wanted to upgrade from a Miata to a S2000, a kid at waterway i worked at even had one with wheels/exhaust/side skirts, it was clearly a much better car and also got more respect...but as we all know, it was like the car that never depreciated after leaving the lot. As consolation, I had to settle on turbo model MR2's instead as my go to "affordable fast car" than my Miata and stayed there, eventually owning a grand total of 5 mr2's and 3 miatas over the previous 20 years as a driver. I guess I did ok.

Sounds like you’ve done just fine!
But who knows what’s in store, maybe an S2000 could still be in your future!
