Last of a dying breed

I have always liked the Miata. It offers the charm and fun of a British roadster, but with the reliability of a Camry. It’s a small car that requires some lifestyle adjustments. The trunk is small, but adequate for a car of this size. Interior space is very tight. If you’re over 6ft or a larger person, be warned. However, the fit and finish is very good. The car has a very solid feel overall. Driving the Miata is a blast. It’s short on horsepower, but you’ll hardly notice. And, it handles like a go cart. The manual top can be raised or lowered in a matter of seconds with one hand. With the manual transmission, I avg around 35mpg. In an age where the joy of driving is becoming a thing of the past, this car is a breath of fresh air.

Not As Good As a 124 Spider

We looked at both this vehicle and the Fiat 124 Spider. We bought the 124. Slightly more cargo space. Better sound dampening. And, no matter what your reviewers say, better interior (did they even compare notes before publishing their reviews?) But, most of all, a better driving experience. Definitely the better of the two for longer trips. And a tad better on the track, too. The MX-5 is certainly a nice vehicle. But, for the same price, the 124 is better overall.
