2024 Toyota GR86 vs Mazda MX-5 // Which is the Best Sports Car for under $40K?

[@averagecarjunkie]

These two cars will always be classic, no Turbos just regular small fun cars. Both cars been around for a while and I love em both.

[@POLITICALYCORRECTify]

86 is a sports car 0-100 in 7.5 seconds is top slow for these days.

[@pranammm]

​​@@POLITICALYCORRECTify Slow is subjective. Slow in a drag race or a pull of the line? Sure. Slow in a track or canyon? Maybe not.

[@richardmichael59]

Too many people are hung up on stats instead of actual driving dynamics. How often do you need to time yourself going 0-100?

[@TheWhisperingPenis]

@@POLITICALYCORRECTify Yeah, true, but compared to what? The average car on the road is what 150hp? You are going to be fast compared to most people, but also driving dynamics make these cars very fun compared to the average. My Aunt has a Nissan Armada with 400 horsepower that gets to 60 in about 7 seconds or so. Guess what? Its way less fun than my crappy Mazda 2 with 106 horsepower. Its also 30-40k more than what I can get most Miatas for and makes the same time despite having over twice the horse power.

Great video. My dad has always had an MX-5 starting with an NA that he had all the way until 2016 when the the ND finally came out. I learned to drive manual on that one and he even let me use it to drive to high school. When Mazda released the RF, we traded in the the 2016 for a 2020 RF and that's also when they gave it the slight boost in horsepower. It is the most fun I've ever had in a car. I finally just bought my first car and got a 2025 Elantra N. It's amazing, fun, fast, loud, stable, and even practical but whenever I see the miata in the garage I smile appreciating that my 75 year old dad has a totally impractical toy that I love as much as him.

[@toyosuba]

This is an easy question. Get the MX5 if it’s going to be your 2nd or weekend car. It’s less practical, smaller inside, no backseat to toss stuff into, smaller boot. But it suits a weekend role very well with the convertible top. Get the GR86 if it’s going to be your only car, and are on the bigger/taller side. It’s more practical, and more space inside. And the low-end torque with the FA24 makes it great for daily duties. If you don’t care about any of that, get the MX5. No rev hang unlike the 86/BRZ, less engine problems on track, and convertible. Only thing the 86 has over that is the low-end torque which is very nice, and the extra hp which is sort’ve evened out by the MX5’s weight. I own a GR86 myself and am very happy with it, but that's only cause I wouldn't fit in an mx5 and can only afford 1 car.

[@sunnyvalentino]

I am a 24 MX5 owner. Agreed! One more thing in favor of your car. If you want the best handling car (in my book thats flatter, more serious, more progressive) out of the factory (you will not mod it), your 86 is better. Its honestly one of the best handling factory cars Ive driven in 3 decades (and it includes Lotus, 911s etc). The MX5 will require coilovers or springs to get there. Otherwise, the inputs of the MX5 (shifter, steering, throttle response, engines and brake feel) is superior, along with the adjustability (alignments etc). It was designed for autocross and components hold up.

[@Austinomon]

Having owned a brz and the rf at the same time this is the most accurate statement. My wife has the rf and I had the brz and whenever we needed to shop we had to use the brz. The Miata was only good for going out but damn was it fun to run twistes together

Got a GR86 Premium 6speed a few months back. Drive (carve) SoCal canyons each day. The GR86 is the perfect tight canyon racer, however, my daily is a ‘97 Miata NA that I own since 1998. Modified suspension, lower, stiffer, all else pretty much stock…. That thing is priceless fun, unbelievable reliable (26years cornering and keeps going) and very hard to beat. It’s like a slot car on rails….. so light, so precise, so slow……but wait, take that momentum along and not many cars with tripple and more power manage to follow. Thank you Colin Chapman for the philosophy, and many thanks to all Japanese engineers for their relentless pursuit of perfection!!

[@lowkeynovs]

I used to be in love with the gt 86 when it came out, never even thought the miata was cool. The 86 brz has problems though. What I thought was that the engine was so smart bringing a lower center of gravity and being pushed back behind the front wheels but the boxer engine has 2 heads that are heavy complicated and even changing plugs on that is a huge job.. as much as I respect the design and everything they tried to do.. the miata is just an enthusiasts dream of simplicity and fun with a huge weight advantage of 400

Great video- the Camera work is crazy 👍🏻

[@sunnyvalentino]

24 MX5 Club owner here. GR86 fan. Good video - my take is same. 86 more serious sports car better setup from factory, flatter, oversteers more fluidly and much more practical (it can be an only car for childless people), MX5 more fun with better inputs (throttle, shifter, steering, smooth engine, even brake feel). MX5 is built better and higher quality (interior materials, aluminum, double wishbones, reliability). Gas mileage I'm getting is 36mpg US lol The MX5s handling softness is easily rectified in aftermarket, the eventual race potential is higher (but you have to spend more money then!). I would have been happy with either. Lovely cars.

For real. Soft top is the definitive Miata experience. Never thought I'd be a convertible person, but there's nothing better than having the expanse of the sky all around you.

So many customization options to stand out from the other brz/86's.

Great intro my man

[@TripedalTroductions]

I think it speaks volumes that the cars can be so close when comparing just the driving dynamics and enjoyability even when you completely ignore the fact that the Miata is a convertible and the 86 has back seats. Back seats in the 86 gives it a longer wheelbase so is a track weapon compared to the Miata, but the Miata is a convertible roadster so adds to the experience when in the right setting. Ive never had the pleasure to drive an 86 on track but I'm sure it's amazing, but I can say that there is truly nothing else like carving a mountain/canyon road in a Miata with the top down.

[@OtakuTeaTime22]

I finally paid off my house so it's time to have some fun :D I'm definitely looking to pick up one of these two next year. We already have two practical cars (a Prius and an Altima) so seeing as this is purely a fun car I'm leaning towards the Miata.

Just, no.... I guarantee that the engine will not be reliable. It's too much pressure on an engine to crank it that high.

Both great cars and far more exciting than the boring SUVs and EVs that are taking over our roads. I have a MX5 ND2 2.0 184 that I use as a daily driver. It's a fun car and mine has a good trim so lots of gadgets including a reversing cam, idiot detection etc. One point that is never discussed is that the car is absolutely fine crawling along at walking speed in 1st gear. In the UK, the govt are on a mission to dig up every road and cause maximum congestion, so this feature is really handy. The engine is nice and revvy and will go to 7500 which is impressive. The car replaced my Fiat 124 spider which was written off by an idiot. In everyday use the MX5 achieves 40MPG. If it had a decent hydraulic steering rack and a turbo it would be my perfect car at an almost reasonable price.

[@BastianUllr]

I was concerned with practicality- drove sedan/SUV for 15 yrs to realize that without kids, there is nothing to win in North America with a few more sits to spare where a car is almost a necessity. Most people drive! So I Made the leap of faith and instead of getting a new shuttle, got a Miata. It has been one of the best decisions of my life. It’s perfectly practical for a childless couple. Reliable, convenient, fun, cheap to maintain, mods are dirt cheap, sounds brilliant, it’s a joy to drive with top down after work/on a weekend/because why not… it’s pure joy. The practicality argument is such a silly thing, the MX-5 can totally be a daily driver. Excellent small city commuter, heats up quick on winter… I can’t find downsides, except you do need to drive defensively. Else… can’t wait to drive it tomorrow again. For any other few occasions a year, if any, I can rent a truck. For everything else? It does it great in my opinion. Great city car. I’m glad is not a silly stiff uncomfortable slow sports car… it’s actually more like a touring vehicle. The fact that even with blisteins on is still soft-ish makes it actually quite fun cornering slower around town. Good chasis and feel for a joy ride, not a track toy. For that, you’d need to get it there. Not interested, 😅 one thing I’m sure, I can’t afford to rent this much fun a year. It lights up any bad day, it motivates you to find an excuse to go somewhere and seize the day, see which sedan/suv can do that.

I own a 3600lb 2013 G37 Sedan 7AT and my GF a 2021 MX-5 6AT, the G37 will walk it on the straights but that MX-5 is an absolute go kart in the twisties. Still would rather drive the G as a daily though. Either the 86 or MX-5 with 50hp on either would be perfect.

Between the two cars, on shape alone, the MX5 Miata looks more refined and inviting in my opinion. It's more closer to my first two-seater, 62 MGB (Mediterranean Blue). Now, I only wish that my 2024 MX5 Miata RF GT soul red came with quad exhaust tips vice the dual one. Surely, a mod will make it happen, but cutting into the bottom rear skirt to fit the additional exhaust tips is risky, alignment and precisioned-look wise.

[@davidgillham6847]

The 86 definitely makes a bit more power than what is stated, and I would honestly say it feels reasonably faster than the MX-5 once you're up to speed. The body roll is also a lot less in the 86 making it feels more planted and controlled through bends, as a sports car should. Also, if you want any degree of practicality, then the 86 wins hands down. I think honestly the only thing that the mazda clearly beats the 86 on is interior quality, infotainment and sound system. The shifter is a bit nicer in the MX-5 though. Both classic cars though to be sure. Worst thing though about the 86 is fuel economy and stock brakes are crap.

[@DragonKnightX12]

I'm surprised they didn't offer a more premium trim option on the twins this time around. It shouldn't be that much to add in some more soft touch materials and synthetic seats. One thing nice about the infotainment tho is it's an old school double din setup, so you can easily get an aftermarket system in there. Stock brakes are actually pretty good with just high performance pads.

[@davidgillham6847]

@@DragonKnightX12 true that, track pads and better brake fluid will massively upgrade the stock brakes! Also, the 86 interior can easily be upgraded with lots cheap real CF interior trim pieces, and if done tastefully can really spruce up the cabin. Sound system is also an easy upgrade for just a few hundred bucks!

😉 OK video, but there is no point in comparing these two cars. It's personal. For about 30 years I drove 4 Nissan GT tuning cars. Super cars. I'm almost 70 years old and I'm a professional musician. I can fit 2 guitars and 2 combos in the GR86. But there are more reasons. It's personal. The Miata is not for me. I bought a Subaru Impreza toy for my wife. And I think they are both satisfied. Choose the car that suits you and be happy. 🤠 HOWGH

Love both these cars, I decided to go with the Miata. However, there’s no wrong answer. But that 86 sounds like garbage 😭

[@SrtRacerBoy]

I would never own a Subaru with a Boxer engine. Maybe when toyota launches that new crazy 4 cylinder they made, the GR86 will get that

GR86 all DAY

I wish we got Honda S2000 2024 😔
