Mazda is more of a complete package compare to 86's more grassroot approach.
It would be nice if twins in future goes through the same kind focus on weight saving as ND. You know you want it. * I mean those "weight savings." [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMyoaICX5Fk"]2016 Mazda MX5 Miata TECH REVIEW with Mazda Engineer Dave Coleman - YouTube[/ame] |

I had test driven the new Miata while looking for a replacement for my original BRZ. The car while peppy due to lighter weight and quicker off the line it seemed, but being 6'2" there was no way I truthfully fit into the car comfortably. whether it be getting to the cupholder or just sitting with the top up (which would also be impossible) the top of the windshield blocked some view and I often caught myself looking over the top quite frequently and also not a fan of the body roll. My brother agreed lol.

I agree, I think they could shave a good amount of weight if they really went for it. I don't think that Toyota/Subaru are willing to invest that much design effort for a low-volume, low-margin car, though.
