Personally, I choose the BRZ because I need a little more cargo space, and owning a second vehicle isn't possible for me at the moment. In fact, I like having the tiny rear seats because I can squeeze a couple people back there if I'm in a pinch.

I'll admit that it hurts to hear that another car is better than the BRZ in its class. At times the review made me feel like the BRZ was heavy and slow, where I used to believe that it was lightweight and fast. I still love my BRZ and I will enjoy driving it for years to come, but the MX-5 has earned my appreciation and respect.

That is just the point. Me using the term "inferior" for the Twins was provocative. We can twist things any way. They are two different but comparable cars, none is truly better than the other. The only better car is the one YOU own, and that is all that counts. We are car buyers, not manufacturers, so no point in "fighting" for which is better, we spend the money on the car, we don't earn on it.


I just don't get all the hate, maybe not from you, but many other posting here.
