I detest cars. Mere appliances. Expensive. Boring. Aggravating. Always a problem, always an expense.

An MX-5 isn’t a car. It’s a mindset. It’s a little piece of smile-age, where “Every Trip’s a Treat”, that “They Give[s] us the greens of summers / Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day”.

That’s why I needed two.

Gosh, I love MX-5s!

Having owned every iteration of the Miata, I feel like the parent asked to name their favorite child. Each generation of Miata has it’s own handling characteristics. They are all excellent machines. However, that being said, Mazda improved on perfection. This car handles fantastically, particularly, with the handling package. The GT Ragtop is reasonably quiet at speed. Accelleration has been a most pleasant surprise. Having driven my 4 other Miatas cross country, I wouldn’t hesitate driving this newest Miata coast to coast.

Mazda hit a grand slam homer with this car.

I’ve been commuting daily in this car since May. Driving over 30 miles one way to work in moderate traffic between highway speeds of 55 to 80 mph in the Fort Worth/Mid Cities area, and I’m getting an average of 34 mpg. That was from the break-in period on and with an automatic–top up or down doesn’t seem to affect the mpg either. It’s a great ride and worth the money.

More car reviews like this please? This site does car reviews great: large real-world, un-airbrushed photos, along with real enthusiast language and feeling. Would love this guy’s take on the Boxster.
