Not sure if that would apply for a car as new as the Miata.

The problem is there are waaay more automatics in the pipeline than manuals so far. Even in the Club model - and the manual Club is the one the enthusiasts want, because it's got the LSD, the STB and the option for BBS wheels and Brembos brakes. You can't get any of those things in the Sport or the Grand Touring, and the you can't get any of those things if you get the automatic (even in the Club).
And you can't get the Recaros in the US at all for some damn reason (at least for 2016).
