2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata consumer reviews

Very good performance, excellent fuel consumption. Just needs more space behind the seats, like the original 1990.

I have a 2017 MX-5 GT rag top with manual. I fell in love with it just taking it around the block. I didn't buy it as a daily driver, but it is now. It takes me back to the days of MG, Triumph, Alfa..... except you don't have to be a mechanic to own one. The trunk space seems to be an issue for some, my wife and I learned to pack lite on the motorcycle so I think it has plenty of trunk space. Mazda being so concerned with the weight really should have ripped out the CD player and saved 5 pounds, and hey, more storage too. (Really, it's 2017, almost 18!) All I can tell you is life is too short, do your bucket list early and get one!

I love the looks, I love the handling and the price made me happy. My only complaint is that it doesn't have front or back of car sensors (it has side sensors). Since the car is so low to the ground you can bump into parking lot curbs if you are not careful. I am used to a rear camera on my other car, at least a sensor would have been nice.

My MX5 RF Club Brembo BBS, soul red, is a true sports car. 2 seat convertible, cloth seats, 6 sp manual, Potenza Bridgestones, Bilstein shocks, Targa style top, small 2.0L engine, 155hp, 2400lb roadster. The performance is amazing, without having to go way over the speed limit. No spare tire, jack, or glove compartment. I have owned an NA, NB, and now an ND. The best Miata by far, owned by me.

Overall I love the car and how it handles. One thing i dislike is the cloth seats on the club model. They're not really comfortable as I expected.

I think that this vehicle is for the most part a weekend car. It is a bit inconvenient and small for commuting standards but certainly a wonderful and exhilarating drive along a winding road.

2017 Miata is very well designed car. Not meant for racing or showing off in speed but built for pure driving fun. It follows the dictum - KISS -Keep it simple stupid! All controls are logically placed. Space is at premium so the interior is taking advantage every square inch of space for maximum utility. My only gripe - the 12-volt outlet is placed at a very, VERY awkward place.

I agonized about the purchase, but I have no regrets. It is fun, fast, easy to drive, comfortable and stylish. The road noise is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I love all the extras...heated seats, blind spot warning system, and the easiest Top Down mechanism ever...I can do it with one hand and it takes about 10 seconds.

Best value in the market, for a fun sporty convertible. The rich history of the car, with the great angles is just a lovely car.

NO spare! Not even a doughnut! Max capacity 380LBS, WAY TOO LOW! Not used for anything but weekend drives in the park! Basically a dumb version of the smart car. Go with a cooper or vw.
