I’d like to see a comparison of the Z3 2.3 vs the Miata. Perhaps a more fair comparison.

Like I said in the other comments. I don’t own one. Definitely would be more fair but I used my cars.

You should buy the Z3. The Miata is a rot box. Even good condition ones are rotting. Z3’s however are bottomed out now, only one direction to go with is up in value. The parts are also cheaper. This from someone who has had 3 Miatas.

most miatas are rotted for sure. I looked for a long time before finding mine which is quite clean

The new Mazda is real good now 180 Horsepower and gets 41 miles a gallon even if you ride it fast still great gas mileage is in the 40s. BMW no were near that in the low 20s maybe 24 mph at best. How ever BMW has more power but the Mazda funner to drive because it's so light only 2100 lbs. The dependability is great. I own one and put 170,000 miles no problems I sold to get the newer one. He is also showing you the low grade Mazdas. the 2006 came much better 160 hp and leather seats and nicer interior. The gas mileage is not as good on the 06 mot the 2017 however maybe 31 at best.

I would not call the NA a low grade Mazda. Most people would rather have a NA than NB even if the NB is objectively better. The Gas mileage perhaps is the only thing I can see, but really gas milage isn't a big deal for most people buying sports cars. New ones are great but everything I said still stands, BMW uses higher quality materials.

About 10 months ago i was wondering about Z3 or NBFL and ultimately it came down to "Do i wanna pay a lot in in insurance...and look like a typical yobo" because people across Europe have very negative opinion about BMW drivers being...not very "strict to rules".It terms of raw power it is much better...but the handling and general nimbleness is way way worse. Ultimately i found an NBFL at a very good price in great condition without major rust problems...with emerald green colour white leather interior,heated seats,abs,folding top in great condition...basically all the fancy things you can have...and it's only missing front fog lights which are plug and play...and AC which is also a Plug And Play Miata is a great option because it's just legendary and people do give it a second look just because it's not your typical mazda-looking car,fair;y cheap to repair and very simple in mechanics (A good car to start your own mechanical adventure) and also it's people's favourite to be a track car because of handling and ability to be modified The reason behind the Z3 being much heavier is because of a ton of soundproofing everywhere...similarly to let's say E46 which was a fair bit heavier than E36

US spec M roadster came with only 240hp, but I understand your confusion. It does pull like a nearly 300hp car

Take them both on a slalom that rewards agility and penalizes weight. I'd like to see the BMW vs. S2000 which is a fairer battle. You can't say best convertible ever without the S2K showing up. Porsche Boxster S saying hold my beer and brat.

This isn't the best comparison. This would be better compared to MX-5 BBR edition cars with the appropriate upgrades that are more of match between the two in terms of performance. Arguably, you’re still going to get more from the BMW M Roadster due to tuning and engine size, but at least the horsepower output would be a bit more closely matched. The NA Miata would seemingly compare better to the Z3 cars fitted with a 1.9 liter 4 Cylinder and a 5-speed transmission.

Hi Nav, I'm surprised that the BMW puts out less horse power than my 2012 V6 Impala, which puts out 300 from the factory. Anyway I enjoyed the episode. What ever happened to the Mustang? That is the car that originally drew me to your channel. But even with out it I really enjoy it. Take care and catch ya later. JoAnn

Yah the bmw has “only 300hp” but it’s light and meant to be a track car. The mustang is in the garage and actually leaking oil. More to come on that car. Thanks for watching!!

It will feel like "300" because it's so light. I had an e36 m3 and I can say the z3m feels much much faster. It's lightweight.

Two very different cars if you are in the market for an MX5 of the value you mention you are in competition with a standard Z3. The MX5 is the better option unless you need the extra cabin and boot space. Here in the UK, a decent Z3M is going to cost £20,0000 to £25,000. For that you could get a nearly new (or new if you haggle) MX5, but you are also in competition with a lot of other cars, a quick look online.
