I have had both, an early Miata and a apt S2000. The S2000 handling limits are higher, a better track car out of the box. My little Miata really lack power. Put it this way, a tow truck almost beat me, He wasn't racing, I was trying like hell to get past him so I can get to the turns. The tail can be stepped out and brought back in the Miata with ease. The S requires a tiny little more effort. The grip is much higher in the S as well. As far as torque is concern, the S2000 is almost as fast from 0 rpm to 5000. it just doesn't feel like it, after that, another 100hp is really nice to have. I shift at 5000rpm when ever I drive it.
