Impressed with the numbers. GJ mazda.

Those cupholders blocking the DVD drive plus the one that hits the passenger's knee lol!

I wish they put the 1.5L in the Miata instead for North America, at least that one can pull into 7000+ rpm and probably much better top end. But noooo cuz of people keep complaining about power.

I hope Toyota and Subaru will never cave in and put a 2.5L 6500rpm redline boxer into the FRS/BRZ for here and ruin it all.

Anyway you look at it. It is still pretty upsetting that the "I don't care about track times/numbers" miata still out performs the twins. For me the miata is a no go due to convertible (hate them) and lack of rear seats (need to be way more compelling to lose all utility ala cayman).

The utility + lesser price allows the twins to make it own case, but getting out muscled by the 155hp 2.0 sky-active engine, which was specifically made for mpg efficiency is quite sad.

Ruin what exactly?

2 amazing cars, they are both winners

Would buy if Canadian Pricing wasn't out to lunch...

Ill have to stick with my NA8 for now.

Summary says it best. If you can live with a 2-seater, get the Miata.

For us, I sometimes have to pick up both of the kids, so the backseat is a requirement. The Miata was never on the radar.

Favorite comment:
For myself, the BRZ is already pushing my limit for lack of practical usage as an only vehicle; the Miata would be a definite no-go. Plus, I don't fit in them. I do hope that this Miata provides the impetus that Toyobaru needs to make more than aesthetic improvements to our cars though.

LOL the twins are officially slower than a Miata

/trolling

Very impressed with the ND. Love how it looks and I can deal with being a 2-seater convertible. Would I trade my BRZ for one? Nope. It would have been a tough choice if they both came out at the same time. Definitely going to test drive one when they're available.

after reading that, it seems to me that the twins are still the winner and not the mazda. that's the way it read to me.

The article did say that all three agreed that the miata was the better car :P

Are you 50 years old? Buy a miata

Confusingly 2 of 3 said they would buy the BRZ even though they agree the Miata is the better car and deserved the win. Strange.

The new Miata sounds great. But not great for me. I don't want a soft top and chances are there isn't nearly enough headroom for me. Right away either one of those eliminate it from contention for me.
