2012 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl 6M)
3 of 3 people found this review helpful
Fun to drive with good acceleration, decent gas mileage, a very reliable sports car that won’t break the bank sticker price. Other than routine maintenance (oil change, tire rotation, etc.) this car required no additional repairs. Great handling on windy roads. Roof lowers and raises easily with one hand. Plenty of storage compartments and trunk space for a sporty car of this size. So much fun to drive top down.

2012 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring 2dr Convertible w/Power Hard Top (2.0L 4cyl 6A)

Pros: If you want a sports car that receives lots of attention, yet a car you can afford, this car is for you! I love the automatic convertible top which happens when I am sitting in the car with the engine turned on. All I have to do is unlatch the overhead latch and press a button! This is a fun car that gets great car mileage and requires minimal basic maintenance. Cons: This is really meant to be a 2nd car. For instance if it rains a lot then I take my larger car. The trunk was not large enough to fit in a guitar or suitcase. If you are in a car accident with this little car, you won't have much protection. They need to add side air bags, which my Honda HRV has.

I can get golf clubs in the trunk, drive roof up or down with prht, it's fast enough for me, handles like a dream and so is just the perfect 2 seater sports car

Run flats are very expensive, make sure your purchase has decent tread left. Better yet...Have the dealer switch to light standard performance tires and provide an RX7 spare. Nov,2018....It was a one ton farm truck that got me. Approx. $2,000 damage to the rear end in a Home Depot parking lot. "I didn't see you". I bought a dash cam for future incidents (everyone is driving SUV's and trucks now in Texas). It is otherwise a reliable and fun toy. Jan,2020...Great for short drives. This winter is fairly cold so the hard top is usually up (better than soft top in this weather). Added backup alarm protection.

This is a great car I've owned a 91 Mazda miata before. I like this one better it's a second car for me. I also have another vehicle I alternate with. I live near the beach so definitely going to work in the morning it's a pleasure with the top down as the Sun's coming up. doesn't get me better. I almost bought a 2017 Mustang convertible great car looks very nice but it just doesn't have that British sports car feel.
