The wife and I were considering the 2018 MX-5 Miata RF -> really cool and unique but with fewer air bags and more diminutive than the FR-S it makes me a little hesitant to commit to purchasing one. -Also, wife is strictly ATX. |

I don't ever really see myself in a 2-seater only car. Limited on versatility , really not that practical day to day. Which is a good thing, since it eliminates all cars in that segment ... including some convertibles , MR-2, NSX, Cayman, S2K. I saw one on my ride today...it would be like riding a Farris wheel / rollar coaster / go cart ride .

Its such a fun car though and the engine/transmission is soooooo much smoother than the FT86 platform. |

I'm the opposite, I'm the only person driving the car and don't need 2 extra seats to store junk on. Two seats is plenty for me. Practical for me day to day.

Yes, it is smaller (all around) than a FR-S and a bit noisier (for listening to the radio or conversation, especially with the top down). It drives much the same as a twin. The top down driving on a sunny day ....... is a unique experience ...... humfrz |
