I go to Mazda Canada to pick up a new refreshed 2024 MX-5 Manual for the week.
I was blessed last year to be able to borrow an RF, which I thought I'd prefer since I own a small light weight coupe, but I jumped at the opportunity to drive the car that shocked me in refreshed convertible form this year!
I never understood why people liked this unassuming, relatively inexpensive little sports car so much until I drove one. Since then it is has become my new benchmark for all other cars to meet.
I dare anyone to say that there is a better driving experience out there - aside from a low volume hyper car, or something even more impractical like a BAC Mono or equivalent cool mini race car.
I look to show you why I now measure all other driving experiences against this legendary car and why the refresh has made it even more fun to drive.
Let's go!

2023 MX-5 RF Manual Full Review
• I GET IT NOW! The Miat...
NOTE: I try to source my specs from the manufacturer first and then resort to the most reputable journalists who professionally tested the vehicle after them. That said, I have the memory of a gold fish and often misquote information so please do your own research if you can.
Also, I believe in following the laws of the road and that stunt driving should be left to the professionals and not me. I try my best on or off camera, like everyone else, to comply, because it helps keep us all safer.
Thanks for watching and I will see you again next time!
