For me the enjoyment changed over the years, the S2000 was
- First full on sports car I've driven
- Got a lot of random complements that was fun, even had an 85 year old dude wait for me at walmart to talk to me and ran over to show me his.
- Gave a lot of people their first convertible experience and watching other people's excitement made it super memorable. Combo that with being 22 and in school, got to live the dream
- The rarity and collectible value is still fun
- Now I'm too big for the car, hurts to hop in and out, I'm too tall for the car
- I worry about no parts, engine blowing up and dropping $20K to repair, not comfy to drive

The driving enjoyment has diminished as you driven nicer and faster cars. I think I hold on mostly for nostalgic memories.

The Veloster N is equally as fun to drive as the S2000 for different reasons but it's a placeholder until I find the next car that is fun to drive.
