All I'm saying is regardless of the state of the economy, sales are lower when compared to previous models.

there are certainly a lot of things to explain what happend. i still dont think its really evidence of the miata not being the greatest sports car of all time or whatever that person was saying (im not even sure i agree with that statement too much). for example, in 2009, cash for clunkers pretty much devastated the used miata market with its $4500 in rebates so many people who would be looking for a miata have stayed in the used market. i guess the bottom line is that im still not convinced the miata has tanked.
