Used 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata Consumer Reviews

Great car

A little more than I wanted to pay but worth it.

Immensely fun

Acceleration and cornering make this an amazingly fun car to drive. It is totally impractical as far as storage is concerned: no glove box or door slots for maps, trunk will hold one carry on and a small tote bag. But who cares? Zoom, zoom. I love the blind spot monitoring and rear warnings of cars behind when backing up. It's comfort is tops. I love it more and more as I drive it.

Hard to beat

This is my 5th Miata having owned only Miatas since they came out in 1990. And each one is better than the one before. Design wise this is probably the most beautiful Miata. Mazda has always had some outstanding colors for the Miata and the soul red (which I have) is probably as pretty a red as I have ever seen on a sports car. If you want a good idea how great this car is look at the August, 2016 edition of Road & Track. The Miata is featured on the cover with the Ferrari 488 Spyder which is a 300 thousand dollar car. In the article it talks about the two cars almost as being equals in terms of subjective satisfaction. And this is just a 30 thousand dollar car! I also should mention that Miatas have exceptional reliability with almost nothing going wrong mechanically. On the 2016 model I really appreciate the upgraded entertainment center with Bluetooth and HD radio as well as a navigation system. I also find the blind spot monitoring to be an excellent safety feature while I find the automatic windshield wipers to be really cool and I've always really liked Bose car stereos. Also I should add that I received something from Mazda saying that the 2016 Miata received both the car of the year and the car design of the year from the international automobile journalists, and no car had ever won both of these in the same year. I can't imagine someone buying a Miata and regretting it.

The Best Trouble-free Fun to Drive Sports Car

Took weight out of previous model (NC); NVH increased, but quicker. Great styling. Fun, exciting to drive near limits. Sticks like glue with quick responsive steering; and shifts like a Porsche Boxster, World-class engine, transmission, suspension, brakes (Brembo). A joy to drive; cheap to own. Reliable: Former 2007 MX5 GT went 85,000+ miles with only oil changes and filters; new set of Continental high perf. tires; and brakes. (NOTE: limited driving due harsh winter in WA and relocation to AZ.)

wanted a miata since they came out

wont regret it, you walk by her in the garage and it begs you to drive the piss out of it. Very satisfying

Mazda’s 4th generation Miata is the best!

The ND Miata in the GT trim is awesome!

Retirement fun car

It doesn't have to be a car for the younger driver. I'm 73 and just love driving this roadster. I use it on back roads and highways and have no complaints. To be honest, I give it an OK on comfort. It is a roadster which is built for fun and excitement, not comfort.

Fun to drive

This is my 3rd Miata and it looks really nice and is fun to drive. The way the convertible top folds down is quick and easy, one latch which is operated one handed and can be done while seated in the drivers seat. Only issue I might caution others about is trunk size, my prior vehicles I could put my entire golf bag in, this one does not even allow me to put a 5 iron in.

Fun !!!!

Too much fun cruising country roads .

So much fun!

This car fits like a glove. The handling is outstanding and can turn on a dime. Not to mention how it maintains decent value.

Great Fun

Zoom-Zoom Is So True

Bought a Miata MX-5 on December 26, 2016. It was a great, no hassle, no high-pressure sales experience with sales rep, Ken Baxley; he was a pleasure to work with. And I LOVE THIS CAR!! It is so doggone much fun to drive. This is the second one I've owned, and it's more comfortable and handles even better than the 2007 model I had.

Toad

One of the best cars I ever owned. Fun to drive, fun to have in the garage, fun to look at when bored with looking at my bicycle. However, totally impractical! I have carted groceries, my bike-tent-clothes but then it is full and no passenger is allowed. (no room). It is idiotic that the CD goes in behind the driver, no glove compartment? Impractical. But did I tell you it is fun to drive?

Amazing Mazda
