Love My 2010 Mazda MX-5 Sport

This is my second Miata. I love it even more than my 1990 Miata, which I ordered before they were even available on the car lots. My 2010 Miata MX-5 is very stylish and has a chrome gas cap, and very sporty wheels, which adds appeal. It has been pretty maintenance free. I bought it with 80,000 miles on it. It came from Florida and was rust free. The only repair I have made in the 6 yrs I’ve owned it was an emission control valve, and a replacement part for the A/C. I love how it handles and it’s fun to drive. I love the reliability of it. I only drive it 2,000 miles a year and it always starts even in the coldest Winters. The only maintenance other than A/C and Emission Control has been Oil/Filter Changes, new Tires, and Battery. It has 92,000 miles on it and I haven’t even needed a tuneup in the 6 years I’ve owned it.

THE BEST SPORTS ROADSTER EVER

Drove an M3, 911, GTI, AUDI TT. There is no comparison to a MX-5. The 2011 Prut is the best. It is not as fast. But, on a quarter mile against a 911 ! It just was behind 5 seconds. I mean for the price, it is unbeatable. No questions ask. Cheap to maintain and reliable than most.

Still loving it and stand by my review. I've had to change a battery - very typical maintenance where I live - but other than typical maintenance I have had zero issues. LOVE IT!!! This car is made for fun and the thrill of the ride. It is pure enjoyment and a bit hedonistic, which is why I love it. For others, I would suggest ensuring comfort of getting in / out of vehicle. I am 5'9" and am comfortable in the driver's seat, but I find the passenger's seat to be more confining. Also, do not expect to make any major hauls; even grocery hauls are a bit difficult. But this is not the reason to buy this kind of car. You buy it because you love the feel of openness and you want to feel free. It has excellent steering and acceleration with the ability to take any turn very comfortably. This is the best car I have yet to drive and subsequently purchase.
