I just purchased a 2022 Grand Touring 6 speed manual in Soul Red. Many years ago, I went to buy a fully loaded Protege. they didn't have what I wanted and the salesman asked me if I wanted to have fun? I said yes and we took out a Miata. (1st gen.) Most fun I ever had buying a car until now. I went there looking at something totally different and ended up buying in right off the showroom floor! The art of driving is can still be had with this amazing vehicle. It's been said a thousand times, the Miata is truly an extension of the driver. It makes you feel like a way better diver than you really are. (Not trying to offend any boy-racers out there.) You can handle any turn and twist the road ahead of you has to offer all while enjoying the elements. (Wind in your hair if I had any ;) Driving was starting to be a chore and now I look for excuses to go and don't even mind the "grind" that is my commute. You owe it to yourself to drive one and learn to drive a stick before it goes the way of the Dodo bird! Besides, it's the best theft prevention on the planet. The only this I'll say about the size is that I'm 5'5" and it fits like of glove. I'm also older and can still get in and out of it easily enough. Visibility is good and BSM picks up on anything you might miss. If you miss the art of diving as much I as apparently did, this is your ticket for the best time you can have behind the wheel of anything! You only get one trip around the block, have fun doing it!

At 6’5”, I don’t drive a Miata, I wear it!

This car is not for everyone. Soccer Moms, people with storage needs and those who want their car to drive for them aren’t food candidates for a Miata. This is old school driving joy. You get to actually DRIVE a car; with a great sense of the road! Of course I have a manual transmission in my GT. It has the retractable roof and is a joy to drive. It’s tight quarters for me, but it feel like it is my super hero suit :). We have another car, a Cadillac XT5 platinum edition, so we have another vehicle for day to day activities. As a Floridian, we drive this car at the beach, too down and with big smiles on our faces. It is just perfect for that….practical? No way. Fun? Absolutely! This is the best car for the money if you don’t have to drive kiddos to school or haul stuff. I had a gen 1 for over 300k. Reliable, affordable and fun…what’s not ti love? Oh, did I mention how cool it looks?

I owned a 20 club soul red, traded for a cx50 a mistake, a year later I’m back this time 2022 metallic gray grand touring, this is is my retirement present, this is a wonderful automobile, so much fun to drive, very livable day to day, it’s just fast enough to stay out of trouble, the new Kpc is a great safety feature, I would recommend and single person looking for a very reliable sports car this is it. UPDATE: I traded my 2020 CLUB for a 2022 grand touring mostly due to the kinetic feature now offered on the newer models plus this one is a little more comfortable a lot more fun and just as reliable, still a daily driver and highly recommended just a fun little car great on corners, a definite canyon carver

Best car I've ever owned

I'm 60 and have had many cars. The miata is hands down the best car i have ever owned. I love the way it drives. So much fun winding it out through the gears. Best manual I've ever driven. Don't listen to those who say it's a summer only car. I live in New England and I drive mine in the winter. I couldn't bear not to. I bought a second set of rims with blizzak times. Swap to the snows around Christmas and take them off in March. Only downside is it would be tough to have this as your only car. The trunk is tiny. I had to get a luggage rack for my beach chairs.

This is my 7th Miata but first ND. Why did I wait so long? It’s way better than I imagined….refined but playful all at the same time. It has a manual transmission, an absolute must to appreciate its engineering and design. Drive it slow and relaxed or drive it aggressively. It does both equally well.
