The ND Mazda MX5 Miata is a great car, but it's NOT perfect. Here's 5 of my biggest complaints about the ND Miata.
1) Passenger Seat Bump
The ND has a very odd bump in the passenger footwell. Turns out, it does serve a purpose - it's where the catalytic converter sits, snugly tucked next to the transmission. This takes up a fairly considerable amount of room in the passenger's footwell.
2) Poor rearwards visibility
Rear visibility is lacking when the top is up, due to a small rear window and higher doors and trunk than older cars.
3) Wind and road noise
These are light weight cars that are minimalistic, which means lack of sound deadening and materials to isolate you from the road. Because of this, these cars are noisy at speed, and not the most luxurious.
4) Terrible cup holders
The ND Miata has cupholders that aren't very good to start, but on top of that, they're removable and can get lost or removed.
5) Lack of storage space for longer trips
The Miata is not a car designed for hauling large amounts of cargo, but it definitely requires you to plan what you're bringing on a trip, especially if you're with a passenger.
These are problems I've found after owning this ND Miata for about 1.5 months. I LOVE this car, in fact it's my favorite car, but it's not perfect, and has these issues and flaws. Of course, everything is a compromise, and in my opinion the ND Mazda Miata is still the BEST driving car, especially when you consider price. What are your thoughts?
