    Personally I don't like the Miata for the same reason I don't like the BRZ. It's a fun track car but would be boring as fuck in day to day driving.
    Maybe I have a different definition of fun but if I wanted to go for a fun drive around town I would pick my Miata 10/10 times over my Fiesta and GTI.

    370z was a great car when it came out, then was quickly outclassed and outgunned in every way by the domestics. Nissan did nothing over 10 years and just kept selling an overpriced under performer. Not that it isnt a good car, it's just not that good compared to anything else in it's niche.

    Like there's probably a best looking girl on every Hutterite colony... you get my point.
    Doesn't its price now reelect that, though? I think a 2020 Z is only about $32k. (Obviously not the Nismo). Does a $32k Mustang destroy it?

    Let’s trade, Miata vs Trackhawk comparison. Which is more fun.

    Also, mandatory two dudes in the Miata if the top is down. Hand holding optional.
    I like neat cars.

    It has a dyno chart built into the cluster? Did I read that right?

    It would have to be extremely small.
    Oh, wait - that's not going to be a problem.

    Just curious if anyone has ordered a 2022 Base BRZ around here and what kind of lead times they are looking at delivery wise? Probably my next car unless I can find a manual slicktop 230i.

    I checked the new BRZ out a couple times and I do not fit at all. Headroom is reduced, the column also now interferes with my right knee. The interior is wider and yet less useful due to trunk opening size and rear seat storage with the seat back folded. Pretty disappointed as I think this car is one of the few ones that has a reasonable value to msrp ratio.

    IMO the GR86 is a real looker (the front end just looks a little better than the BRZ). I love what they did with these cars and hope they sell well.

    I agree, and I hope the seat is lower in the GR86. I do wish the price was closer to the BRZ price.

    That's too bad, something like 37" front head room cross it off the list for me too unfortunately. They finally got the power and styling right vs price.

    Curious - how tall are both of you? The 86 is on my short list but I have yet to sit in one, I'm 5'11.

    I fit “ok” in my 13 but headroom could be slightly better.

    Damn. I was gonna check it out, but doesn’t sound like it’ll work.

    My wife ordered a 2022 BRZ, I think I'm looking forward to it more than she is. I fit in the one the dealer in Saskatoon had @ 6'0, I have a 31" inseam, shorter legs than average by an inch or so. I wouldn't call it spacious, but I did fit well enough. I fit in the 2022 BRZ/86 better than I did in the new Miata with the hardtop retractable roof. Seat goes back a lot farther than the Miata's too. Still looking for a replacement for her LC500 when the lease is up, but we're going to lease the BRZ for an inexpensive 2nd summer car for 2 years and see how it goes.
