Thomas really had to collect his last hit points, fought through severe illness and presented this fun mobile to you. Now off to search regeneration / 100 health package.

[@Bingo2501]

Lol, gute Besserung und danke, dass du uns noch mit letzter Kraft dieses Spaßmobil vorgestellt hast; nippel uns nicht ab... ;)

[@autogefuehl]

merci! Hab die Quitting in der Nacht dafür bekommen. MIttlerweile gehts wieder zum Glück

[@gordonbennett6057]

Get Well Soon, Thomas.

[@azizbelkharmoudi2564]

Hi Thomas, I hope that you'll get well soon, my advice as a vegan you should take red beet+Citrus juice it has an immediate effect in strengthening your health and is nourishing and help cleanse your system and promote Fast healing! Try It everyday and see the difference!

[@autogefuehl]

interesting, lets try that

thanks robin!

[@grdixon83]

Wow the metal roof, especially in side profile really changes the look, I think it looks great....Looked quite cold in Spain despite the lovely sunshine!! 😊

[@autogefuehl]

yay!

[@-Derp-]

great review thomas, thank you. i owned the previous version of this, the nc, powered hard top, manual, and after owning for 4 years from new, i can safely say its one of the best cars ive owned. if you are a driver, and love mountain roads and day trips, this is the car for you. its shortcomings are space and power, which did grate on me and was my reason for selling. if you can look past that, or get a hop up kit for more power, its just a joy to drive, slick manual 'box, you simply cant be angry driving this. its one of the best cars ive driven for the sheer enjoyment of driving.

[@christianschumacher6689]

Autogefühl Hello Thomas, great review of the Mazda MX5. Thank you very much. This sports car has really good genes. Below 4 meters in length, below 1.2 tons of weight. A moderate maximimum of 160 hp. This car is heading in the right direction, combining reasonable driving fun with sustainability and environmental friendliness ( does this word exist? ;-)). The MX5 reminds me a little bit of the Opel GT of the seventies. Are you going to bring a review about the new Citroën C3, in addition to that of the Paris exhibition? Well made super minis are the future, if we really want to be serious about protecting and saving the environment. A speedy and full recovery. Did you drive too lang and too fast with open roof? ;-)

[@autogefuehl]

i rather use convertible driving as a cure ;-) C3 will be here on atgf of course

[@christianschumacher6689]

Autogefühl Especially in that beatiful landscape and clean air :-) Can you already tell which variant of the C3 you are going to review? I am very interested in the 110 hp version. Maybe you can also give a recommendation whether to go for the manual or the automatic transmission. Thanks in advance. I have great respect for you and your team. It always looks so easy from the outside. But making all these videos, fixing all the dates, all the travelling, all the research of technical data, reading all the long comments (especially from me ;-)... oh no, not the environment again...) and answering them. I would say: Excellent job, man!!!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks we appreciate that! Dont know yet what exact cars they have but i ll find out

[@Da_StormtroopeR]

Autogefühl A Citroën C3 review is coming! Ich platze gleich, can't wait. ..

[@mannyechaluce3814]

Outstanding presentation and review by Thomas even when he was not feeling well that day from what I heard. Thank you

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for realizing!

[@global_nomad.]

I have been waiting ages for anyone to do a proper review of this car - looks great and thomas gave a great detailed account of it as usual. I would like to test drive both this and the soft top back to back before choosing one or the other but the RF aesthetics are what brought the MX5 into consideration for me. thanks again for all the good reviews

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated! Seen our soft top review? Linked below. Also the Fiat is interesting to compare.

Good review, I hope you enjoyed your stay in my land. I drived by this road with all my cars starting with my first one, a 3rd hand Corsa A. I'm eager to drive it again when I have my MX-5 in a few weeks.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! We ll return very soon :)

[@JamesCookinham]

Very well done. Thank you for doing such a detailed job with your descriptions. It looks like a car that could be a lot of fun for those of us who love to drive but are not trained to control all the new big horsepower cars of today. Thanks.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks james!

[@1998cc2litre]

After problems with the soft top rubbing on the style bars behind the seats the instructions of how to raise and lower the roof when sat in the car have been removed from the handbook. The recommended way is to stop the car and get out before raising or lowering the roof. This means the RF is the only version where the roof can be operated from within the car.

[@autogefuehl]

I guess noone would do that :D

[@1998cc2litre]

Autogefühl Several soft tops have had to be replaced in the US due to holes caused by the rubbing. If not following the new approved procedure for lowering the roof then Mazda could refuse warranty claims. A fix is supposed to be in place for future cars but you're still supposed to operate the roof from outside the car. One of the main features for buying the soft top would be being able to raise and lower it quickly while sat in the driver's seat.

[@autogefuehl]

but how is it any different to operate it from inside or outside? The distances remain the same?

[@1998cc2litre]

Autogefühl I think it's the direction of the applied force. When inside the car there is a tendency to pull the leading edge downwards when opening. If outside the car you would tend to lift it. That's my best guess.

[@autogefuehl]

really strange!

[@mindcrafte]

Love your detailed commentary on car and knowledge of it. Great video.

Fancy seeing you here! Love your music, man! Also, I just got this car myself, so I'm addicted to watching videos of reviews of it when I can't actually be driving it myself....ha!

[@john_c1]

Hi Thomas, Mazda launched Mx-5 Z-Sport soft top and 2018 RF. Apparently they both have some subtle interior changes, new suspension and steering set-up plus possibly more refinements including more noise dampening for both(possibly). I tried getting the information from other reviews but nobody is as thorough as you:) I'd love to see these 2 cars reviewed and see what are your impressions. All the best

[@autogefuehl]

We ll drive the mx5 in august, lets see if there are any changes

[@MegaGasek]

Brilliant review Thomas. I wish you had spoken about practicality for couples... You did mention the trunk is really small but If I were to travel with my wife would it be too difficult? How bad is it as your only car? I think this is the main question that keeps people from buying a convertible. The feeling of driving a convertible through small roads with your partner by your side is unsurpassed... I've had a 2009 Porsche and it was incredible, but very soon I had to buy a second car... In the end, I sold the Porsche and kept the Mazda 3... Broke my heart to do that...

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! Hmmm as your only car, you both should be rather small - for headroom and also for your luggage size :)

[@myaccount__7269]

Valter Vilar get a BMW 328i 2008+ . They have hardtop convertible and big enough back seat for people and decent size trunk. Works fine as your only car. Well except if you have big repair bill.

[@MegaGasek]

Sak __ Thank you but I've read about BMW repairs... They are scary! A Mini convertible would be my choice but I've read that Mini's reliability is not good... A shame, the Cooper convertible is quite a beauty... Looking into electric as well. Waiting for latest news on Nissan's New Leaf and Ioniq's improved range. Great things are coming at the end of this year. EVs low maintenance is what is attractive to me right now.

[@autogefuehl]

As all-in-one convertibles I would consider... kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2e7qIqsnb2Ii9U kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4qQm6t-gZh-g7s kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIWTZKJqZs6qa6s kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnq4dH1-bNl6i68 Of course base versions of those are always enough.

[@MegaGasek]

Thanks for your links. I've watched all of them. Thomas was much younger on these, or is it my impression? Anyway, they are way more expensive than a Miata and most of them look like a bath tub to me... Just personal taste. It looks like they were not designed from the start as a convertible, whereas the Miata was... I know BMWs, Audis, Volvos and the like are big names in Europe but I associate them with older people cars (probably because only more established people can afford them as opposed to someone who is just starting to work) and high maintenance costs. I don't like the mechanism on the BMW convertible, it looks like too much for such a simple task... 3 Elements? It didn't impress me... Thanks for your incredible reviews Thomas. I don't think I can afford a car that costs almost as much as a little apartment. I am looking for something cheap and practical... Too bad the Mini Cooper convertible has low reliability. That was my top choice as an every day convertible car. The Miata seems to be the only one I can afford but I will probably need another car as well. Looking into Nissan Leafs now... Moving to Portugal, will need to decide on a car before 2017 ends...

[@conorwainer9272]

Thomas as always I really enjoyed. I've just purchased the soft top, this is a great option so buyers of both should be glad to know they have nearly identical driving dynamics. I will give my feedback for a leatherette / cloth option in the GT trim when I go to collect it.

[@autogefuehl]

great!

[@riccardogavanelli1076]

Very nice review. I watched it 200 times! Last week I ordered a sport 2.0 RF in soul red. Same as in the video. I didn't get to try the recaro seats in the model I test drove (it had normal leather seats and they were pretty comfortable.) I really hope the seats aren't too stiff and restricting for a 178x64kg person.

[@autogefuehl]

awesome =) Have fun ! They ll be better for you for sure!

[@Danne6und8zig]

[@FEETLE]

awesome review... hd is so great for your videos... perhaps maybe you show the underpinnings of vehicles to also show the technical aspects of chassis.

[@autogefuehl]

cheers man !

[@Cue633]

Thanks for the nice video. This might be the first one I saw of actual driving experience of the rf and I love your comment about noise level comparison between the roadster and this one. One question: how does it sound in highway speed with the roof up? On the Nc it feels louder with the retractable hard top closed/up.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks ! I think highspeed, the hardtop should be better (when closed)

[@xdragon1331]

Thomas I think it would look a lot better in the gray colored it debuted in. What do you think?

[@autogefuehl]

that gray looks great. I would have shown you different colours as usual but I really literally couldnt move anymore in the evening and the next day.

[@john_c1]

Thank you for a very comprehensive review. Is this colour soul red? It looks very different in the sun light. Love your previous review for the soft top version as well. Thumbs up 👍

[@autogefuehl]

thanks john! yeah soul red!

[@john_c1]

I am driving now the Mx-5 ND 1.5 litre in Crystal White (Pearl). Absolutely lovely car. I'm going for a test drive of the RF in 2 weeks to see how it feels:) Keep up the good work, you are doing amazing :)

[@christianschumacher6689]

Cool sound of the electric roof mechanism. I also like the central revmeter with the digital speed (I have just found out that it' s the dial for the gear shift, digital speed is missing :-( ) in one instrument. Where is the dial for the coolant temperature? The colourful upper part of the inside of the doors looks very beatiful. I like this feature in other cars like the Volkswagen up! as well. It' s a pity Mazda left out the horizontal adjustment of the steering wheel. With 1.86 m in length like Thomas I would have problems finding a comfortable seating position, too. A vertical and horizontal adjustment of the steering wheel should be mandatory by law in every car because it' s both a comfort and safety feature. In general I want to say that the MX5 is a " reasonable" sports car and convertible. Relatively short and light and with a maximum of 160 hp quite moderate. In comparison to the first generation Mazda MX5 however we can see how much longer and wider and heavier our cars have become when the horsepower figures have almost exploded. Yes, the consumption figures have stayed the same or even have dropped due to modern technology. (Whereby you can' t compare the old consumption figures with the NEFZ figures. Back then they really drove the cars on the road with 90 km/ h, 120 km/ h and in real city traffic). Imagine we combined modern motor technology with shorter and lighter cars, went down with the horsepower figures at the same time. How much more energy could we save! How much more could we contribute to saving our environment! We can start today. Make fuel economy and sustainability the number one priority when buying a car. Go down one or two segments. I want to say a little bit provokingly that a Ferrari driver can also be happy with an MX5. A Rolls Royce driver can be perfectly fine with a Skoda Superb. An S class driver doesn' t have to be ashamed driving a C class. Except for image reasons, of course. A Q7 driver will find almost the same space and comfort in a Seat Ateca. Maybe we will find out we will be more satisfied being moderate in choosing our cars and caring about our environment.

[@autogefuehl]

ye i wish the car was 5 cm longer on the interior. I also missed the digital speed-o-meter, shame only showing the gears...

When Thomas was closing that roof I thought that it would bump on his head. :) From that angle, the interior head space looked tight. I had the feeling i knew the place that you guys filmed this, Let me guess Spain, Serra del Lladre? :D

[@autogefuehl]

[@bdoleza]

LET'S GO!! :). Great review Thomas, you make it look easy! Seems like it would not kill Mazda to develop a 2.0 turbo diesel or a 2.2 turbo petrol for the Miata? A car this venerable is worth the dev cost IMHO. 7-speed DCT would be nice too in case a driver is so inclined. Love the painted interior tops of the doors!

[@MattBargain]

Great review guys! The only thing I'd change is the speaker. His German accent is very thick and sometimes it's hard to understand his mumbling.

Nice review.......just wondering if the cabin has lots of wind noise with and without the rooftop. Also with all those joints in the roof any chance of leaks inside the cabin? Notwithstanding, I like it a lot.

[@autogefuehl]

I did cover that aspect a lot in the driving part!

[@IbtesumNoushinwork]

Dear Thomas, thank you for such a lovely and elaborate review. it almost seemed like a test drive! do you think this car would comply with the heavy downpours in rainy season? or would the retractable roof be a problem for driving in extreme wet weather? and about bumps, is the ground clearance enough?

[@autogefuehl]

+Ibtesum Noushin thank you! Rain should not be a problem however bumpy roads are not that good of course

[@IbtesumNoushinwork]

you're welcome! :)

[@rafalg87]

Huh, so with the roof down it's louder than the soft top version, that's a surprise. I guess it's more quiet with the roof up at highway speeds though. My main concern with my soft top MX-5 NC is that above 100kph it's rather loud, so if I were to buy a new car again, I'd look into hard top options.

[@mattesrocket]

Best MX-5 RF Review so far as you filmed a lot of the driving in a naturally way and I was astonished: I thought I am an old fashioned guy how likes naturally aspirated engines but obviously I'm more used to modern times as I thought: I didn't like the engine sound through all the video, it sounds too "angestrengt" (strained). Deswegen fällt für mich eindeutig die Wahl auf den Spider (der äußerlich auch viel schöner ist und mit dem besseren soft top (eine Lage mehr Stoff). Aber vor allem der Turbomotor klingt besser.

I just traded my Mazda 3 for the MX5 RF, no regrets whatsoever even if the UX on the MX5 is far dated compared to the newer 2019 Mazda 3. This is a driver's car, just love it. Mine came with a reverse camera but no back up sensors, who cares anyway!

[@coolskillz13]

with top up, how loud was it on the freeway? i drove an nc on the freeway and it was bad, enough to make me not get the car even though i love miatas. i'm 100% buying an rf if top up noise is manageable. nice review btw

[@autogefuehl]

Closed is ok, but as I pointed out, if you are not focussed on the design, the soft top is better n more flexible

[@after_midnight9592]

I'm 183 cm tall, small size of MX5 has me worried. I think I need to go for the 86/BRZ. Those have more roomy cabins and telescoping steering column. RF looks awesome, but it's not for tall people.

[@sotosmac]

Dear Autogefuhl what is the feeling of this car when it is open? Same like the mx5 soft-top? You feel same (free open space, fresh air)as the soft top? Or it something like a window at the top? Rf with closed roof top close is "more" car (than the softtop) but I am not sure if you can feel the same when they are both OPEN. I am really confused with one of them to buy! I just want to feel the open space!

[@autogefuehl]

its a little bit more "protected" feeling

[@sotosmac]

Protected is always good to feel! The point is to feel that you are still in a cabrio and not in a car with an "open window at the roof". You feel that you are in an open car? You feel the air from all the dimensions? The sun from all the dimensions?

[@autogefuehl]

ye that still works well

[@kptv6009]

Hi Thomas! Do you mean that the ND version is better for driving with the roof open? I just thought this type of roof was better for the wind but now I have doubts. It is obvious that this car is purchased to go uncapped most of the time, for that reason the one that is less noisy will win. What do you think about it? Greetings from Spain.

[@autogefuehl]

hey m8, have u checked the review full length? I am commenting on that specific issue

[@kptv6009]

The thing is that right now I'm with my nephews and there's a lot of noise at home haha, then I will see it quietly later!

That mountain is scary I might do it. I think the Miata is my 1st pick for me out of all cars affordable and not really the fun and look, automatic thought im to busy texting and such jk finding music to play honestly. Dont search and drive.

Oh how i wish mazda would put a turbo in this thing now that is has become a bit heavier and slower. Otherwise the RF/targa top looks so much better than a softy

[@autogefuehl]

Turbo you get here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2Sug3-rf616jbc

[@OfficialMINIm]

Autogefühl what if mazda turbo charged their current 2.0L ? ;)

[@autogefuehl]

their strategy is N/A engines, which also has something good ... like low consumption

[@seven203]

What if the Rx-7 be based on Miata ?

[@tricorntom2254]

Haha, nice review! Somehow the German accent gives you more authority!

[@autogefuehl]

=) Stick with us!

[@tricorntom2254]

Tell you something really crazy. I have a 2005 Corolla LE with 225,000 miles on it, and I absolutely love it. Have done two trips across America with it, and I can't wait for a third! Before I bought the car, I did my homework on which car would suit my needs, within my budget, and also last a long time with very few problems, and the Corolla has delivered on all fronts (I am even driving with the original clutch!). Still, it is fun to see what else is out there, and that's where you come in! Danke!
