No brainer for me. I fit in a Mustang, Miata not so much. (well I can get one leg in, not both)

I read articles like this and all I think is the writer is trying to get attention whether it is negative or not because attention gets you noticed.
I think the comparison is ridiculous but that is what the writer wants .. hey his article got noticed |

Sure, it's a bit of a click-bait, but if one believes him, he essentially drove them back to back and felt it was more fun.
I have an older, slower Miata, and in many respects it's more fun than my much faster and new M3. GT500 comparison aside, I thought it was interesting to read his perspective on just how improved the 2019 ND is. |

If I had a major criticism about an NC, it would be too much sway and a lackluster engine. The ND sounds like still crazy roll in corners but at least the engine is less lackluster.

I agree re: the engine. My NC with the factory sport suspension and the sway bar the previous owner installed has minimal roll.

This kind of goes with what I had said in the past .. variety is the spice of life ... btw only when it comes to cars . In your case you have 2 really cool cars and get to have the fun each one offers. |
