Sounds like a great car. Motor Trend has a big write-up on it this month. I just wish the did something different with the center tunnel and the tail lights.

Can't believe he called the 2nd gen miata a poser and a business proposition being that it kept everything great about the first gen miata but made it roomier, more comfortable, better handling, and faster. Looks like the same is true of the 3rd gen compared to the 2nd gen. Can't wait to co-drive one for a lot of next years autocross season or even by one myself.

wow the article writer is a sarcastic SOB:

"Hoop-skirted with the six-speed automatic transmission (oh, now of all times, would you just please learn to drive a stick!), the MX-5's horsepower drops to 166. And the "chick car" factor erupts to 100 percent."

Top up, the outside world stays pretty well outside, but headroom is compromised. So just drive with the top down because if you're the type that drives a roadster with the top up, then I really don't want to know you.
