Miata joy ride. Enjoy the top down on the weekend in your Miata convertible.
It's a fun and sporty vehicle. It's better for short trips rather than long trips. I don't like the automatic transmission. It takes a long time to switch gears. At 80,000 miles it had been a very reliable vehicle so far. I have only had to replace the coolant reservoir as of late. The convertible is a great feature.

My car is much, much cuter than your car and much more fun to drive
Love my car. It's the most fun to drive: six-speed, convertible, peppy, dependable. It's my second Miata. Great ride.

It's a 6 speed and you can't find manuals around much anymore.
Shifts into gears without a problem. Takes corner without you or your passengers getting whiplash. It drives very smooth. It's a nice tiny car. Makes for not having to give friends rides when you don't want to. Convertible is amazing. And it hasn't shown any signs of leaking.

Luxury within a budget. With a retractable sunroof this is a fun convertible.
This vehicle is highly reliable. Good on gas and mileage. It has easy and inexpensive maintenance and repairs. As far as upgrades go, you can add the smallest of upgrades and it will make the vehicle look even more impressive and classy. This vehicle looks like you've invested more than what you paid.

Great acceleration. I never have to worry if I am in a tight spot if my car will respond as needed to avoid an accident.
This vehicle has great spunk. It not only looks good but performs well. It is low maintenance and the maintenance when needed does not cost a fortune.

It is small and would be dangerous if you collided with it.
Hard seats, hate them. I like the smallness of my Miata. Love the convertible ride too. Love the way it handles curves in the road, too.
accountCircle Martha W
For me the most important thing about the car is that it is small and easy.
Easy to park. Easy to handle. Fun to drive. Does not have a lot of room. Gas mileage is good and have not had any trouble with the mechanics so far.
accountCircle Tracy B
It is fast and handles the roads well. It has good gas mileage and it rarely breaks down, making it a good car to drive on long vacations.
The car is sporty and has a nice design and it drives well. I have no complaints.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Lisa K.

It has a lot of room in it. I like the good gas mileage. It easy to get in and out of. Feels true and smooth. I like the way it looks and love telling my family and friends about it. Has a great stereo system and really like the decor on the inside.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Lisa K.

The gas tank is not super big so have to make multiple stops when traveling. It needs to have better seats, the seats are adjustable by I wish I could adjust them more. I wish there were more input options.
