FAST FACTS
"The Miata stands out in this segment for a number of reasons. It's tiny, for one thing, and it also offers a delightful manual transmission that we strongly recommend. Is there a backseat? Is it at all luxurious? Is it even that fast? No, no and no — but as ever, it's one of those cars that you can't fully appreciate without driving it. Get behind the wheel and you'll feel the magic, too, even if it's not your cup of tea."—Ranked #1 out of 4 Mainstream Convertibles
