I'd give it a test drive. Maybe they'll put speakers in the back that will make vroom vroom sounds.

Good lord,this car looks terrible as a convertible!
Admittedly,I hate convertibles to begin with,but just looking at what they did with it,it's easy to tell that this car was never meant to be one. |

Yuck. Never liked convertibles, that’s why I never considered a Miata or S2000. The new Miata with the retractable top is the first I would entertain, but still, seems like extra weight for nothing...

The RF is cool but yeah, the complex folding roof mechanism adds extra weight and takes up storage space that a dedicated coupe could avoid. One of the eternal mysteries is why Mazda don’t pick the low hanging fruit and capitalise on their existing MX-5 by offering a fixed coupe version. The development cost would be minimal... they could literally use the existing RF shape, but just make it a permanent hardtop (I’d suggest an aluminium roof with a carbon fibre optional one) and save some weight. It would only expand the customer base. Not sure why they don’t... |
