You should like sports cars .You should look until you find the one you like. I love my Mazda Mx5. I love the color. Blue and I love the heated seats and the heater is great. I love that you just push a switch and the top goes down. it is still warm with the top down and you can talk because the isn't a lot of wind noise. It is really fun to drive. and I find myself thinking of reasons to go driving

Smooth shifting high revving fun. Mazda knows what they do right with the Miata and this version nails it. The car doesn't try to be anything other than a fun driving car

Traded my 2010 Grand Touring hardtop for a 2017 Retractable Fastback, in October. Really liked them both. The 2010 seemed a bit quicker, not that important since we don’t buy an MX5 for speed. The 2017 seems more refined, yet sporty, I’m older, so like a few more amenities, and love the color I got, it’s called Ceramic. Both my MX5’s were 6 speed manuals, the 2017 shifting is much smoother. I am retired but still very active and on the go, and drive the Mazda as much as possible. It’s a great “pick me up” since I love to drive. Highly recommend this car, for me it’s all about FUN, and this car delivers!

I looked hard and long at the 2019 with the increased hp and torque. But I went with the 2018. When charted out, the increase only noticeable (on paper) at around 6k ram's. Driving? Hardly noticeable at all. The decision came down to noise...2018 has a much throatier growl that you feel in your gut. 2019 has a whine to it..kinda like a rice burner. Saved myself 3k or so, and LOVE my car.

You must give yourself this gift.My dissesion to purchase is never questioned. I simply get the giggles every day I’m in her. Get one before they realize they priced them too low $$$$$
