Not surprising at all - the NA Miata is even lower and smaller than the Twins.

With any of the lightweight sports cars (Miata, Elise/Exige, S2000, Twins, RX-7, NSX, etc.) you really need to factor in the low profile and drive defensively.

Anytime I'm stuck in another car's blindspot, I try to give it some throttle to let them know I'm there. Seems to work from what I can tell. The times I've nearly been hit are when I haven't done that.
