The MX5 has always had the reputation of an enthusiast's car: small, lightweight, and easy to toss around. So when I got the chance to own one, I jumped on the chance. And I was not disappointed. The car lived up to its reputation as a fun driver's car. While not a horsepower monster, there was definitely enough under the hood to keep anyone entertained. For such a small car, it felt remarkably solid, though it comes with its fair share of creaks and rattles. As long as you know what you're getting into with one of these, the car is a great.
Story
I used to take mine to go do time attacks at a local race course. I was never really great at it but putting on a helmet and mashing the gas pedal around corners was a great feeling. Plus, you get to meet a lot of awesome folks. This car can be a gateway to an enthusiast culture and become a full-time hobby if you let it.
Pros
The car is responsive and handles well. The low to the ground seating position helps deliver a good sense of speed, despite mediocre horsepower on paper. If you like to work on your own cars, there's a huge aftermarket performance parts selection for this car. Unlike older versions of the MX5, this model has a lot of creature comforts and upscale touches such as HID headlights and heated leather seats. This was also the first model to be available with a retractable hardtop.
Cons
140ish horsepower. While this is plenty to have fun, you're not going to win any straight-line races, not even against a lot of newer family sedans. Despite having more horsepower than its predecessors, it's also bulkier and heavier, so the driving experience is somewhat diminished. It's small, no back seats, and has a tiny trunk; definitely would need a second everyday car if you've got a family or responsibilities. Also due to its size, you're going to have tough time getting in and out if you're tall, overweight, or have bad joints/back.

2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata - Fun.

My 2008 Mazda Miata is one fun ride. The small size means easy to handle and fun to drive. The size also means this car goes light on the gas. In the summer taking the top down is the best way to travel but in the winter the top also works great to keep out the weather. Repairs are few and far between. This car just works.
Story
This 2008 Mazda Miata was a blast on a cross country drive, Not a single issue other than fun.
Pros
One of my favorite things about this 2008 Mazda Miata is the tight handling. Turns at speed are a breeze with the near 50/50 weight distribution. The sports suspension and tires also help grip the road. The small size means light weight and that means speed off the start. The sound system is great and you can easily hear it over the wind noise with the top down.
Cons
Some things I do not like about the 2008 Mazda Miata is the lack of storage space. The trunk is small and you really heed to plan on what you take with your trips. The insides are also small. Larger riders might have a hard time fitting into this car. The engine could also be larger. That would give more power to the car on the highway when passing. The trim inside could also use style improvements.
