What Owners are Saying About the 2021 MAZDA MX-5 Miata RF
"Best Retirement Toy"
"This is my first Miata, and it's over the moon in terms of styling and performance. The ride is firm and the handling is on the mark tight. I wish it had internet connectivity and that the seat cushion height could be adjusted. My car is the Grand touring model with the optional Soul Red color, and daily I'm complimented on it. The car's profile reminds me of the '68 Stingray convertible I had as a kid, especially around the elevated front fender wheel wells and the sloping front hood."
"Great for small fun car"
"Traded in my 2001 Civic for MX5 after I kicked the kids out of my house. Small, economical fun car. Very enjoyable to drive, even at legal speeds. Works well for 25mi commute. It does not get cold here, so I dont need to worry about snow, cold. Havent driven it in August, so I dont know how bad it would be to drive with sun beating down and 95F. Comments on comments Noisy: If you want a quiet car, get a Buick. Cup holders: If you want usable cup holders, get a minivan Storage and such: If you want storage, see comment on Cup holders. I havent rated reliability, Havent had the car long enough. Three nits: Golf clubs and trunk, yeah right! They do fit in the passenger seat though. AC control. When I turn the knob to full cool, the AC automatically turns on. I just want it to vent cool outside air when the top is down. Windows, When the windows are up and the top is raised, the windows lower to 2/3, therefore I have to close the windows fully after I put the top up. Recommendation is only for friends who want a small fun, sporty car."
"I love my Miata!!"
"The little car is an amazing, affordable sports car!"
