Mazda MX-5 Miata

"Handling is great. Acceleration is still responsive in 6th gear. I love taking turns with this car as the grab is still as good as when new 18 years ago."

"It handles and corners very well. The steering is firm and allows great control; not at all spongy. Acceleration is good, the car is peppy and responsive."

"It is the poor mans sport car. It goes where you point it. with the power in 2nd and 3 rd it is a joy to drive in city driving. Change lanes and can zip around other cars with ease."

"Its fun to drive I love it"

"Best car ever ;)"

"It is just plain fun to drive."

"It's just the most fun little car to drive. Handling is excellent and it will turn on a dime even in narrow places."

"It's quick with terrific handling and acceleration. When I tell it to do something, it doesn't think about it, it just does it and does it well. A pleasure to drive! Lives up to it's manufacture by Mazda's racing division."

"nice little dependable toy no major or minor expenses. Use it seasonaly and it gets me and my golf clubs everywhere we need to go. Please note this vehicle is a 1990 not a 2000"

"With only a small 4 cylinder engine it's not the fastest car on the road acceleration-wise. But it handles like a champ, easy and fun to drive."

"small sports car (actually a 1989 model which could not be identified in the previous page). It handles like a sports car with great acceleration and cornering ability."

"For a 4 cal. it has a lot of pep."

"Like a go cart!!!"

"This car is the most smiles per mile I have ever owned. It has the abilities of a sports car but never bites back, it is very forgiving of drivers pushing the edge. The acceleration is strong and comes on with a rush above 4000 rpm when the VVT starts. The car corners like a cat hanging onto the drapes, it does not let go willingly, I have taken pigtail onramps/offramps at highway speeds with little drama."

"Everything a sports car should be - quick, nimble, great steering and braking."

"Fun to drive. Feels faster than it really is due to size."

"Great little sports vehicle. Fun to drive, always blasts on acceleration and can turn a 360 in the middle of the road. What's not to like?"

"Fun to drive on surface roads. Enjoy the manual 5 speed transmission."

"This is really a 1993 - you didn't have anything prior to 2000. Runs like a dream - no mechanical problems -"

"The Miata is a joy to drive. It handles like a dream and I love having a 6 speed manual transmission. I could use a little bit more horsepower but as it is this car is almost perfect. I highly recommend the Mazda Miata."

"It is fun to drive!"

"Acceleration is immediate and handling is like a cat climbing the drapes. This car was a compromise between the motorcycle I wanted to get and my wife's desire to live. And now even she gets a little obstreperous in it. It's a riot on wheels and we love it."

"Needs more power. Fun fun fun to drive! Much better control than older (1950's) sports cars."

"Although the car has a small engine, and doesn't go very fast, it has great handling and is a joy to drive."

"It is a delightful, fun, and reliable car. It is quick enough for me"

"I love my Mazda as it is a pleasure to drive and handling is fantastic. The close ratio 6-speed is great. But the quality of the leather seats is disappointing. I have used Meguire's leather products on them and they still have cracked."

"Fun car to drive. A/C is great on hot sticky days. Car was recently professionally evaluated at $9,000"
