Nice entry roadster

2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2dr Convertible w/Power Hard Top (2.0L 4cyl 6M)

Like most, I was looking for an affordable side piece. My wants were fun, 6M, inexpensive, reliability and fun factor. In some ways I got more then I excepted. Hard top is great if your not tracking it. Leather, Bose system, and heated seats are nice options. It handles great. Has adequate power, and can be a daily driver. Bottom line is I look for every excuse to drive it and even commute 45 mins each way in heavy traffic whenever weather allows. Putting the hard top down is a pleasure. It does leave me wanting a little more power. It’s a go cart, but solid, and is comfortable inside, but I’m curious if a slightly bigger and more powerful car is the next step. For $8500 w/ 90k, it’s a cheap, no hassle, straight forward roadster that you want to drive, but sometimes you want a little more. I know it can be modded, but that’s not my thing. It can likely a 50-100 HP upgrade. Stock, it’s more of a backroads and highway cruiser. I’m happy, but plan the move up in class in a few years, and check out the newer Miatas.

This is definitely one of the funnest cars I have ever had. With that said it is also the noisiest car I have ever owned. Lots of wind noise when the top is up and the more you drive it the more it seems to develop new rattles. (mainly in the dash) Anyone approaching six feet tall will not be comfortable in this car! Fun yes....would I buy this car again. No!

My back can't handle much of this car. After an hour or so I believe I'd feel better if I was on a medieval torture rack. Would that it took that long to get tired of the racket this car makes. Took it in for service to deal with the rattle, squeak, and squeal from the dash. The service people were really nice but unfortunately the problem is still there. So if you like paying 20,000 for a tin can this is the car for you.
My dream car for 2008

I wanted a convertible & found MX5 has the package deal. Discount off MSRP was very attractive too. Fit me well (5'4"). There are after markets that sell for faster speed & other accessories...
