"Bought my '08 used, 20 months & 15k miles ago. No spare tire, premium gas, & noise when cruising above 50 mph, are downsides that are off-set by revving thru the 6-speed and listening to the MGB-tuned exhaust on a 70-degree day with the top down. winding, curvy roads are also a treat - even when driving off to the mines every day. she's still putting a smile on my face & my passengers. the engine-lite came on once; was reset & i haven't had any other electro-mechanical issues. top flips down in seconds - with one hand. goes up in 15-20 seconds - but, at 60, i usually need 2 hands. top hasn't leaked a drop yet. you only live once; maybe twice if ur lucky. go ahead & make ur day. i love this car. i heard this is the car clint eastwood drives around."

"I have always wanted a cute little convertible sports car, so I decided to get one in my "golden years". If not now, when? With the help of Cars.com, I found the perfect car. It was exactly as the description read and the pictures were great! This little car handles great and just zips around...and parking is a breeze. Now every time I just want to get away from it all, I just hop in and clear my head and enjoy the scenery. The weather should be getting warm enough soon, so the convertible top will go down and my spirits will go up!!!"

"This is my third Miata, they are the most fun to drive, wouldn't have anything else, I have never done anything except the regular maintenance, and they have been the most trouble-free cars I have owned."

"I purchased used with 18,000 miles. In 6 months, I now have 25,500 miles. This is my everyday car. It's not stored in the garage and only driven in sunshine. It's driven everyday, rain, snow, ice, sunshine, etc. and left outside in the weather everynight. That being said, it's a great car!!! More than fun to drive, peppy, handles great, reliable, and it rides and handles like a sports car that it is. If you are on bumpy roads, you will feel the road the same as if you are on a curvey mountain road with the top down and the wind in your hair. Don't expect it to ride like a Buick. It handles wonderfully and with full confidence. Mazda, don't ever give up on this car!! I love to put the convertible top down on nice days and I like the built in roll bars for safety. The engine is strong and smooth and only gets noisy when driven hard. Even though the car uses high octane gas, it gets 32 MPG on the highway and overall 28 MPG. The door cup holders are a mistake and are instrusive on the knees and Mazda should eliminate them completely. I highly recommend this car for anyone looking to actually drive their car!!"

"I am a fan of convertibles, but my previous one (other manufacturer) just about broke the bank. This Miata still has all the fun features, yet reliable and inexpensive to maintain. Bought it used and have had no problems with it. The sales person was great and followed up to make sure I had no problems with it."

"It's been 23 years since my last sports car, an 85 Porsche Carrera, sold because my first daughter came along and I couldn't get the child seat in and out without visiting the chiropractor. Wow I have missed the pure joy of nimble handling, throttled response and wind in my face that this Miata embodies. Add great mpg, better than 30, and as high as 36, and it's almost a blend of high valued fun and practicality - almost! Although my 6'1" frame gloves in, the seat could use a lumbar feature. And even though it's the Gran Touring model, expected features like climate gauges, compass, MP3 plug in, and average mpg are missing. Also, if you need to hear your cell conversations, invest in a good headset or get the hardtop version. Still for the $'s the performance, reliability and exhilaration are unmatched."
