Mazda, the only company that felt the world needed a car like the Miata, a car nobody else was willing to produce and they continued to produce it during the good times and the bad times (like the last 6 years!). It is because of this that the answer to most sport-car questions is: Miata. Perhaps some of us are hoping for a different answer.
What about the S2000? And to a lesser extent the MR-S and Sky/Solstice.

None of them have had the same success as the Miata despite them being arguably better cars.

Why not?
