Me and my dad recently picked up one of these. My dad's coworker has an S2000 and after we test drove it we decided to buy one as well because it is fun. However, apparently you can not buy a new S2000 anymore so we bought MX-5 which people tell it is very similar. It is indeed a great deal of fun but after driving it a while and starting to push it more we noticed that there is no "push" at the higher revs. S2000 had a clear distinction in the sound also somewhere higher in the revs.
Is that normal or should we take it to the dealer? I remember dealer clearly stating that it has 2 liter engine without turbo like in S2000. Checking under the hood it says SkyActive so everything seems OK?

It is regrettably normal I can't tell you how many times in different industries I have people "under budget" and then they absolutely have to spend huge amounts of cash on something that has to be "new".
The reason why this is a meme is because people are irresponsible and autistic and therefore completely unable to think that other people will be responsible.
I'm currently working with a company that thinks they have to spend $3K per laptop each on shitty consumer shit that won't last 2 years but because they've always bought shitty consumer shit that doesn't last 2 years they think this is how it has to be. I've shown them refurb business laptops that will last 10 years and the answer is always no.
Anyway everything is not OK, go buy the piece of shit and make sure it breaks then don't do anything.

Gotta keep that economy flowing somehow.
No veetec bro
S2000-> 240 HP. Revs up to 9000.
MX-5 -> 160 HP Revs up to 6800
No wonder you found it a bit slower...

You'll have to overnight it from Japan, it won't be cheap. Not a bad way to spend ten grand though.
