The last sports car I had was a 1988 300Z that I bought new. I did love that car, but traded it in on a van when I met a woman with two kids...bad choice! Anyhow, several marriages later, I find myself working at age 74 and am tired of the 2017 Versa I commute to work in. Friend shows me pictures of the MX-5 RF and I am in deep lust! Tried the rag top with an automatic for a few days. It was fun, but not exciting. Took it back and found my 2017 MX-5 RF on the used lot. Manual tranny made all the difference in the world. Its also a real head-turner and gets compliments all the time. It is a blast to drive and makes the commute as fun as it can be. I really don't care if there is little trunk space. That's what my wife's suv is for.

This car gets top rating for performance and value. It is extremely fun to drive. I recommend the 6 speed manual transmission for optimal enjoyment. It is very easy to drive and handle and has lots of zip for a four cylinder engine.

I bought a 2019 RF GTS new in 2020. With Bilstein dampers and front tower brace included and added Apple CarPlay, it’s virtually the same as the 2020 and 2021 models. This is an outstanding second car. It is impractical as a hauler as there is no storage space. Interior storage space is non existent and the trunk is tiny. But that’s not why you buy a Miata. The driving experience is truly excellent and is the most fun I’ve ever had driving. The manual transmission is excellent, curvy roads are awesome and the power is just right. There are endless aftermarket upgrades. You’ll look for excuses to take this thing on the road. It’s been our escape hatch during the pandemic. We put the top down on cold days with the heated seats on. Tons of fun, economical and reliable. What more do you need?
Everything you want and more!

2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF Launch Edition 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M)

I sold my last MX-5 about ten years ago and missed it from the day I sold it. I received my Luanch Edition about a month ago (yes, I was one of the lucky one thousand!) and love everything about it. It is the same fun to drive MX-5 I knew plus some. The new styling is very aggressive, the color combo is outstanding and the rectractable hardtop is just awesome. Just a really fun and reliable little care. I thought my last MX-5 was a great value, but this one is even better. (And the dealer that my Luanch Edition came through was as outstanding as the car!)

Ridiculously Fun and Radically Fine Mazda Miata RF

I only been driving my Miata RF for a few weeks. Can't speak much for its long-term reliability or value. But I can tell you that I have never enjoyed driving as much!! This car does not have to be a “fun car to drive on weekends." It is luxurious enough and comfortable enough for me to use as my every day source of transportation. Absolute loving it. Zoom-Zoom.
