Better yet, try the new Miata available at your local Mazda dealer in
January. It won't give you neck snapping acceleration, but it is a true
sports car and handles very well. I've driven the 1.9 ZZZ and found it
wanting, the 6 is just what it needed, but on a $/value basis, I'm not sure
it's any better than the Miata. The SLK just doesn't turn me on, and it's
not even available with a stick shift. The Boxster, now there's one I'd
like to try.
