Edmunds Full Test: 2006 Mazda MX-5

[NFS4]

What Works:
Balance, response, control feel and sheer driving fun.

What Needs Work:
Not much beyond the chick car image.

Bottom Line:
They killed the Miata name but not the spirit.

I :heart: the new Miata. They did a great job all around.

Still a chick car but it's a serious improvement.

Love the dual exhaust (yay for symmetry).

It might still have the chick car image, but it's probably the most fun sports car you can get for the money.

NFS4, is Edmunds the only source you go with?

I'm just asking out of curiosity, because I don't think I've ever seen you link a car review from another site.

I will give it that, though the GM Kappa stuff may give it a good run.

SRT-4 would have to be a serious consideration too, if you want balls out power for your $20K.
