2008 Mazda Miata Review:
Sporty looks (though not deafening), inexpensive and the most fun car to drive. Quality workmanship and engineering keep it out of the shop. I can dream of BMW roadsters and Maserati racers but I'm happy every day with my Miata. If you're not having fun in a Miata, we don't know how to drive.



Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2008 Mazda Miata?
A true sports car. I love everything about it. I have a sport model, 5-speed with A/C Getting 30 MPG all the time.
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
"Concave" the inner door panels for more space.
More power.
2008 Mazda Miata Review:
All things considered a great sports car.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorCons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
rear view mirror with outside temp and n/e/s/w/ directions.
the middle storage area is hampered by a low hanging catch so that you can't close it if you have anything higher then the cupholder sides. the sliding lid needs revamping.
Also the need to use Premium fuel--IN A 4 cyl car that has only 166hp. Come on now!
I did not know this till my 1st fill-up. Yikes!!!




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2008 Mazda Miata?

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
NEEDS a spair tire
2008 Mazda Miata Review:
GOOD HANDLING




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2008 Mazda Miata?
Peppy car, fun to drive. Grand Touring Hardtop convertable gives you the best of both worlds.
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
2008 Miata Driver seat SUCKS! Get rid of the height adjustment! or re-design it). Bar in left edge of seat really hurts after an 1/2 hour of sitting. Seats without the height adjustment are confortable. Mazda needs to recall with a fix for the seat problem.
2008 Mazda Miata Review:
Everthing about this car is great for the price. Love the Hard top convertable feature. Rag tops has a cross-member over your head, Hardtops do not. Hardtops has more headroom.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorCons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
I was wondering about the potential use of space in the doors between the exterior metal skin and the interior door panel where the arm rest is. I think the arm rest should have had a flip up access where you could put things like pens glasses or maps. the manual parking brake handle should be removed and a foot peddle should be used instead. the door bottle holder area should be redesigned for another use; like a flip out storage bin. if something like that was done to the interior door panel i would probably buy them and replace the existing ones just for a little more space. How about placing the front plate below the grill?




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2008 Mazda Miata?
Sporty with hardtop convertible - 29 mpg combined
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
Turbo Option
2008 Mazda Miata Review:
I like the MX-5 more than my '05 vette !




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2008 Mazda Miata?
everything
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mazda Miata?
interval wipers,dimming rear view mirrors
2008 Mazda Miata Review:
Get a life. The cup holders in the doors and console are just fine. She's a specialty car for those who want a sports carand lets hope Mazda keeps putting the money into quality instead of advertising.
