The best old guy go cart on the planet!

After riding motorcycles for 56 years, at 66, I bought a 2010 Miata MX5 GT with soft top and 6 speed auto/manual. Weighing 175 lbs. puts the car with equal weight on all 4 wheels. This is the most fun car I’ve owned. My grandson will get it when I kick the bucket. I’ll be hanging on to it as long as I can.

Good ride with pick me up!

I just purchased a 2010 Mazda Miata yesterday and I Love it! It's so me. I said I wanted my own selfish car and I have it. I own a 2017 Kia Sedona minivan for the family. I'm always sacrificing as us women may do and I wanted something just for me. I am pleased! I found the listing on Cars.com.

The most fun to drive car I have ever owned

This car was bought for my 65th birthday. I know , there is no fool like an old fool but puleezee. The Miata was my dream care. All I can say is it is just sweet.

Having fun driving it

I purchased the Miata as a gift for myself on my 50th, it’s a great car with awesome road handling especially tight turns. Fun to drive. Wish I had bought it way back.

A great car.

The more I drive it the more I love it. It corners like its on rails, smooth cruising at any speed and when you press on the gas it just goes. Beautifully designed, a real attention getter. A car that makes you feel good just to be driving it. A little hard to get in and out of but you adjust to this. The seats are not very comfortable, there is a lack of small item storage space and the fuel filler cover release is poorly located. All in all this is a car you will love.

A 1960s Beauty

If you thought the roadsters of the 1960s were the best, drive a Miata. While the new model has lost some of this, and Mazda has not ambrassed the best technology of the day, it?s still a beauty and a great car. Just don?t reject the previous version.

FUN in the Sun

My 1996 Miata was totaled so I bought a new 2010. It is more comfortable and sounds great. I liked the go cart like handling of the 96, so I upgraded the sway bars, strut tower brace and frame braces. The standard car handles great, just not stiff. It is a weekend car but I drove my 96 daily with no issues. This car can't be beat on price and fun.
