@Anton Zuykov if I am not wrong, Mazda is a smaller company than Honda. It's just that Honda just stopped trying. One other reason is that s2000 was not competitive on price with the Miata.

The S2000 was a tech demo from Honda to show what they are capable of. It was made as a form of celebration

[@fen2005Way]

I own exactly the car he tested. The Eternal Blue w/tan leather interior looks and feels great, and the car drives like a dream. My first trip was to Costco and I easily got three bags of groceries in the trunk. Not exactly an SUV, but practical enough to be your daily driver. Puts a smile on my face every time I look at it or drive it. I owned a 1993 NA which I sold when I moved from New England to Arizona because the a/c couldn't handle desert heat. I loved the car and it reminded me of a Lotus Elan, but it had no power. Many years later, the ND does everything so much better while preserving the best parts of the original design. If your lifestyle allows you one great toy which doesn't even cost much money, this is it.

i went to a mazda dealership and seen a red one sitting outside i checked it out in person my jaw dropped i was pumped the car looked amazing and the paintjob was so beautiful cant wait to get one my dream car :)

[@markjohnson5276]

I drove my Miata on a road trip from St Paul MN to Cody WY in 2015. The first year the speed limit was set at 80 mph. It took me 4 1/2 hrs to cross SD. No caffeine required. I drove thru the Badlands, it was 98 F in the interior. I had the top down and the AC set to the floor. It was like sitting in a cold tub of water with just my head sticking up, beautiful. Everybody else in the open was prostrate. One morning I left Rapid City to drive at 10 mph all day thru the back roads of the Black Hills. Reliving the movie 'stage coach' on the very roads it happened. It was 67 F when I started so I turned on the seat warmer. Later the temp rose to 82 F and I thought, 'my God it's hot'. Then I realized the seat warmer was still on. Miata fun, lol.

I have a manual ND. I’m sorry but I test drove the ND in auto and it’s one of the most fun cars to drive with an auto. So if you cannot drive a manual for some health related reason, definitely check out the auto. Having said that, this car really is built around the manual.

Spot on. The Miata surpasses Porsche for durability. Built for drivers not for mechanics.

[@dlg5485]

I don't know why people insist on comparing these 2 cars...talk about comparing apples and bowling balls. The MX-5 and the Boxter aren't even close to being in the same class. The BRZ/86 twins are the only real competitors to the Miata. The Boxter handles FAR better than the Miata and has +114 hp and +94 lb-ft of torque! The Miata is an amazing car in its own right and certainly is the best roadster of its kind. In any case, there's no need to make these ridiculous comparisons.

[@ajcivicracer]

I have been researching Miatas in over a decade and finally purchased a 2019. Will pick it up at the dealership tomorrow. Thanks to the reviews, I immediately am aware to its features prior to driving.

[@acaceres5788]

Agreed! I don't want this to be the last manual sports car I get to buy. The only way we keep them coming is if people buy them new. I get the attraction of buying cars like the FR-S and BRZ used and throwing the rest of the money to nice upgrades, but that money never makes it back to the manufacturer, and if the accountants don't see it in their books, we'll never see future generations of these classic inspired cars.

[@Canaz73]

Just drove a 19, and still love my 18 124 Abarth, especially in looks and having the turbo motor and exhaust note (custom 2.5 downpipe back) improves the lag and the sound is glorious. Good video!

Miata Is Always The Answer

[@markdc31]

Hats off to Mazda for continuing to build and improve the MX-5. High revving lightweight, rear-drive affordable cars are endangered species. And unfortunately a lot of young folks will miss the opportunity to experience this type of purity. No turbo, no big V8, no all wheel drive, no 22” wheels... None of that nonsense but still a thrill on the road or at the track. I’m well over 6 feet tall. I may never own an MX-5, but I appreciate it.

My wife has a 2018 Club. On a tight road it is almost as fun as my GT 350. This is a very well built car that she loves.

[@DrewLSsix]

This engine would be spicy in the Mazda3, and downright hawt in a Mazda2! Alternatively this output per liter in the 2.5L would be over 225HP! That would be a handy option to slot between the 3 GT and the 300ish HP Mazdaspeed3 said to be on the way! That kind of car really appeals to me more than the big dik turbo versions. Mazda is at its best being Mazda, not trying to compete with Mitsu and Subaru.

Would love to see them do something similar to their 2.5 L engine for the new Mazda 3. I know it's going to be the new skyactive X but really would love to see a high redline. With their modifications to the MX5 they have turned a Great car into a Legend. In todays world of small turbos that do good down low but totally run out of steam above 5 or 6K it is so refreshing to see how good this MX 5 does with it's NA engine. Surprised just how turbine smooth the car sounds at high rpm. Well done Mazda.

blain sg Doug DeMuro is a _real mixed bag._ Half the time I just want to "friendly punch" his extremely annoying face, voice, and mannerisms as he just rubs me the wrong way with his cockiness. The other of the time he goes into great details about things most reviewers just outright ignore, or don't notice, which can be really informative. Regardless, his enthusiasm is one of his better points -- he is a car fanatic and his passion shows. Imagine how tiring it must be to be constantly reviewing "yet-another-car" of Brand X that is similar to Brand Y and trying to keep it "fresh" and engaging -- so I'm willing to cut him _some_ slack. He maybe controversial but at least you won't be bored watching his videos! Other reviewers tend to more dry and focused on the facts so they aren't quite as entertaining to watch. Pick your poison. The spoilt rich kids who never had to work a day in their life and love to flaunt their expensive, obnoxiously overpriced hyper/super cars are some of the worst. Every reviewer has biases. Best is to watch half a dozen to try to get a _complete_ perspective accounting for their weaknesses and match what you value. At the end of the day none of the reviewers know you best except you.

I plan on hanging onto my Mazda3 for a couple more years, but this new wave of Mazdas coming out will certainly be what I am choosing from from down the line. I may end up getting a newer Mazda3 if they can make that car have some more pep, but I’m also going to flirt with the idea of keeping my current Mazda3 as a beater and simply adding a MiataRF. These guys are doing a good job of evolving their lineup, especially when you factor in what they did to the Mazda6. Hopefully they can get every model pumped up a bit, and then turn their focus back to the MazdaSpeed side once again.

I’ve only sat in one of these a while back, but one of the best features is the easy manual top. Every small convertible should have a manual top.

Miata is a drivers car!

Yep, those revs remind me of the Honda engines of old with 7 - 9k rev limits. So good. 0 - 60 isn't where a car of that nature excels. 30 - 70mph with the engine at 3 - 7k brings out the joy with NA high rev'ers.

YasumotoUS Mazda basically resurrected the n/a K20 out of the Honda’s coffin.

Lov this car! 😍😍

I still cannot get over how perfect Mazda designed the ND model.

I'm a simple woman, I buy what Sofyan says to buy. I would trust him with my life.

[@wbwayne8887]

I would too, except, I can't afford a Porsche, and have too many kids for a Miata. #Dilemma

No, put his seed in her to grow the baby silly.

Small correction. CarPlay and Android Auto are available for all post 2014 models for retrofit. Just had it in my 2018 model installed.

i really want to buy this MX-5

[@seikocitizenwatches]

The most beautiful Miata ever. Spectacular blue.

[@wbwayne8887]

So, any second thoughts about that Cayman after driving the improved 2019 Miata. Especially during that time of the month, payment time. More fun to drive a slow car fast? Not that the Miata is slow.

[@saadqureshi7127]

WB Wayne miata is slow. I'd take the Porsche Cayman over the miata anyday. Also can turn corners better than the miata.

[@colinleder5683]

@@saadqureshi7127 The miata have a better balance tho

[@mattyoz0]

Better than a mid engine car? lol

[@colinleder5683]

@@mattyoz0 depends of your experience, for a beginner the 50/50 balance of the Miata makes it easier to control

[@mikeb9569]

Your grandmother can drift the Miata easier and with more confidence.

[@gearheadred]

Is Mazda using a tri-coat painting process? Because that paint job looks spectacular.

[@llStixxll]

I love how we all still call it a Miata lol just refusing to accept Mazda’s “rebrand”

[@93mlo]

They have always been called mx5 in Europe , so there is no rebrand name.
