What do you like about 2007 Mazda Miata?
This car turns heads whenever I drive it. And to make peoples' eyes really pop, all I have to do is demonstrate that, in 12 seconds, after releasing the lock and pushing one button, I can have a convertible! It is SO much fun!
Driving this incredible car up and down and around on mountain roads is like no other driving experience. I have an automatic, and it shifts so smoothly I can't even feel it. It's fun to use the optional manual, too.
It is extremely nimble and zippy. It corners beautifully.
I get between 28 and 35 mpg, which is nice.
The trunk has a lot of useable space for such a small car.
I can wash the entire car in about 10 minutes because it's so small. Everything is easy to reach.
In summary, it's the look and feel of this car that makes it great. I smile all the time I'm driving!
How would you improve 2007 Mazda Miata?
I was surprised by the roughness of the ride. I would have thought they could make it less jarring. I've gotten used to it, but it would be nice to have it smoother.
Given today's gas prices, I'm not overly excited that I have to use premium in this car.
There is not enough leg room for my husband (who is 5'11"). He cannot stretch his legs out fully, so we don't take the car on more than about an hour's trip. Between the cramped cabin and the rough ride, it's not a comfortable car for a long trip. (Besides, there's no place for the dog!)
The cup holder on the door is useless for anything except a water bottle, and they stick up too high. The holders on the center console are too far back to reach comfortably.
The gas cap release lever is in a very awkward place, in the center behind the seat! Dumb place--I cannot release it without undoing my safety belt.
The interior is so small and it wasn't very well planned to put things in an ergonomic place. If I'm driving and have a passenger, there's no place to put even a small purse except by my feet or in the trunk.
2007 Mazda Miata Review:
I purchased this car as a replacement for a 1977 Mercedes 450SL. I wanted a convertible but didn't like the hassle of getting the top up and down on the Mercedes. Of course, the Miata is no Mercedes, but the driving experience is every bit as much fun, in a different way.
