Perfect sports car!
Went from a 2011 camaro to a 2020 RF GT in eternal blue mica. Best purchase I’ve ever made! Absolutely a blast to drive, feels as fast as the camaro I traded in. I’m 6’1 and fit in easily with an inch or 2 of head room to spare. Cons: Interior is okay (Apple CarPlay/android auto is what saves the infotainment) wind noise isn’t the greatest at highway speeds but it’s not too loud, truck space is tiny, and the cup holders aren’t the best. Pros: driving dynamic, handling, and steering is the best I’ve ever felt in a car, it’s very easy to maneuver around with the small size, parking is never an issue, RF top is fantastic, way better than the soft top in my personal opinion, gas mileage is great! I average ~30mpg and that’s with very spirited driving! All in all this is a fantastic sports car for the money! I highly recommend this vehicle!!!

Grinning all the way!
This is the most fun to drive car out there. I own a late model Corvette and have had many sports cars including Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, Mustang, Cobra, etc. The overall driving experience of the new Mazda MX-5 RF GT-S is just total excitement and pleasure. It does everything right and keeps you grinning from ear to ear. You have to experience driving this car to understand how much fun it is. I researched and helped a friend buy this car. He was in the market for a new toy after owning a Honda S2000 and a Porsche Cayman. He can’t get over what a great sports car this is and the deal we made to buy it new, hundreds below dealer invoice. He planned on using it as a weekend fun machine but now finds himself using it more like a daily driver, getting his dose of driving pleasure.

Best Looking Convertible in price range
This is the first time a Miata actually looks like a mans car. The lines are beautiful and the car feels like a go cart. I love how the car handles and the car is as quick as I need it. Love the car!

The most fun two adults can have while dressed
The car never fails to elicit grins. It's a great partner on any drive. The trunk is surprisingly roomy, and unaffected by the position of the top. In winter, the interior gets nice and toasty quick. The navigation system works well enough that I don't need to find a place for my phone. The quality of the sound system is fantastic, but it takes a few minutes to start up if you use a high-capacity (>32GB) USB drive. Still, it's a delight to be in either seat. Having had a 2017 model first, the enhancements in 2019 (including the GTS package and its Bilstein shocks and limited slip differential) are transformative. It's a much more satisfying car to drive. Update 1: I'm replacing the 2019 with a 2022. Same exterior color, similar interior (from Auburn Nappa leather in the 2019 to Terra Cotta Nappa leather in the 2022). Update 2: The 2022 model is pretty much indistinguishable from the 2019 physically and the driving experience is still exquisite. The updated infotainment system is MUCH slower on startup, and has many new features, none of which are documented in any manual. Very frustrating.

Late life desires
I drove a '93 Miata for 22 years before giving it to my younger brother, who I knew had lusted for it. Then I read a review of the 2017 RF and started looking into it. Now in my late 70's, I found that I still desired a stick shift car that was fun to drive. I have only 400 miles on the RF Grand Touring model but it is all that I hoped for. Love the retracting hard top. The performance so far is fine for me. Will probably die driving a stick shift (as the reviewer wanted to do).
