What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Mazda MX-5 Miata
| Price of the Mazda MX-5 Miata: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 2dr Convertible 167-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual RWD | Inexpensive for a convertible sports car. |
| 2006 | 2dr Convertible 170-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD | Bought it used (2 years old) for $16,500 with 8000 miles on it. If you can find one you like for similar money, buy it. This model year has a 4 year bumper to bumper warranty, unlike subsequent years which are covered for 3 years. |
| 2004 | 2dr Convertible turbocharged 178hp 1.8L I4 6-speed manual RWD | Great value for the car -- Used, I could get a fully loaded sports car for the same price as a new base model economy car. |
| 2003 | 2dr Convertible 142-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual RWD | Bought used, 2 owner car, both ladies drove it only for weekend joy ride, covered and garaged, e.g. low mileage, showroom condition...3K under Blue Book. |
| 2003 | 2dr Convertible 142-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual RWD | The price point for a used 03 Miata are quite attractive, considering other roadsters. |
| 2002 | 2dr Convertible 142-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual RWD | Price on the later models is a bit high for how little creature comforts you get. Worth it once you find out how fun and reliable it is. Great on gas too |
| Price of the Mazda MX-5 Miata: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2003 | 2dr Convertible 142-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual RWD | Very pricey in Canada (30k for a stripper), dealers do not want to deal. |

| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 264-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Very surprising interior materials for a Kia. I feel like I am sitting in a much more expensive vehicle than I am. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 264-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Perfect , Was going to buy a Lincoln town car, this is much less but you dont spend the money , No need just as good if not better |
What Our Members Are Saying about Mazda MX-5 Miata Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Mazda MX-5 Miata: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 2dr Convertible 167-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
Appears to be great |
| 2006 | 2dr Convertible 170-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
Good fit/finish and paint. Impeccalbe craftsmanship = remarkable at this price-point. Leather package with Grand Touring version is of noteworthy quality (and a recommended improvement over base cloth). Interior controls are well-designed. |
| 2006 | 2dr Convertible 170-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
To date it has been close to 100% perfect. |
| 2004 | 2dr Convertible turbocharged 178hp 1.8L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
Thoughtfully designed to make the most of cargo capacity in a small car. There are lots of little touches that optimize storage space and fuel economy, as well as making it feel like a luxury car. |
| 2001 | 2dr Convertible 142-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual RWD |
Nice job reminding of class British/Italian convertible strong points but with better management of interior features and consistently good workmanship (see excellent reliability!). |
