i appreciate being fun at 100% but in reality we spend most of our time on the street where im more likely at a much lower fraction of my abilities. the miata is fun as fast as it goes (which isnt very fast) but it is remarkable because it is fun at much more pedestrian speeds too. sounds like the brz fails in that dept
At the same time, isn't it bad to feel fun at 100% of the time? Lol, I hate to say it, but humans are incredibly adaptive and you tend to tune things out (hell, look at any new shiny toy >_> tends to be less awesome three months down the road). But no, you may be right that the miata is more fun. From my perspective, I'm thinking that stability and confidence is always a good thing so that's why I'm having a disconnect. Dunno, I don't see Evo's review as bad. Not stellar, but not bad? Dunno.
