Why do people like the miata so much?

What makes it fun, I mean there's no power under the hood

>needing power for fun

>engine
>transmission
>four wheels
>two seats
>steering wheel

add in a fairly minimalistic body/interior/chassis/etc and you have a great car

Exactly.

They don't, it's a meme. No one actually thinks highly of Miatas

problem is you have to force a Miata to be fun

its not a fun car to simply drive because it has no power and the suspension is shit

sure once you dump a few thousand dollars into it you have an alright car but then you couldve just bought something better

That fuck is wrong with you people?
Whats fun to you?
You can throw a stock miata pretty hard through corners and drift at almost any time.

Problem is youre 13 and haven't driven a Miata. You just want to bitch about something you have edgelord.

What I meant to say is "huge" edgelord. My iPhone is censoring fat people hate, it seems.

yeah you have to throw it to do anything because its complete shit stock

prefer a car that can actually handle well and go out of the corners instead of getting passed by Corollas

Miata faggots have to be the worst fanboys

sorry you were retarded and about a meme

>lol ur 13 ahahahaha

nvm you probably dont even have a license

Name another rwd car for the price that you can have fun with while being reliable and taking tons of abuse

Mustangs
Camaros
S Chassis
3 Series
Volvos
cheaper muscle cars

sure none of those are what you would call handlers but theyre all easily more fun than a Miata

I really don't know where this whole meme about miatas not having any power started but I'm convinced it's mostly just propagated by people who have never driven one or people who short shift. Miatas are geared very short and you'll be doing 60mph at the end of 2nd. There is absolutely no public road that isn't a straightaway where you can't enjoy yourself with the Miata

>mustang
Horrible cars in general. Any """good""" foxbody will cost more than a miata
Any sn95 will be broken and slow
Neither can turn
>camaro
Pretty much the same as a foxbody or sn95
>schassis
Horribly unreliable, double the price of a miata with double the miles and issues that a miata ever would have.
>3series
Wanna talk about being slower than a corolla. On top of more expensive, rare, unreliable, and SLOWWW
>Volvo
Even slower, handles worse. Is fairly reliable if you know electronics

So youre just hatig on miatas for no reason and you know it.

The mx-5 will out handle virtually any car. it isn't even close. You can see the lateral g tests on YouTube. The rubber:weight ratio is insane. Combined with 50/50 weight distribution, double wishbone suspension, low ride height, it's really fucking hard to lose traction

>gearing means fast

the fuck

the 1.6 is painfully slow and the 1.8 is still slower than a damn $1000 Corolla

they roll around like a pig in the corners

they are just awful meme cars

theyre all more fun than a Miata
theyre all cheaper
and nearly all of them are faster and cheaper to make even more fast

Miata a shit

Youre delusional

nice argument

guess not even fanboys can defend the shitbox

Shut up instigator.
Everyone knows youre full of shit and trying to meme into a pointless internet fight.

whoa this argument is making some excellent points the Miata sure is looking better now

just lmao fucking fanboys

...

I thought miata's had a lot of room and were great for hauling?

Troll/10, the rolling like a pig bit was funny but the rest was too obvious. Next you'll tell me you spend your time in Jezebel arguing that women are inferior to men.

>Mustangs
Post pics of your bf

yes user its always good to dismiss all criticism that violates your safespace as a troll

probably better for your fragile mental state

go back to facebook carthrottle reddit or wherever you came from

So eh, do you have to get manual for the Miata to be fun? I've been debating getting a Miata for awhile now but the RF looks nice af. My problem is no dealer has them in stock with a manual. And trying to get a manual is a 5 month wait.

Who the fuck gives a 1994 Miata as a loaner in the last decade

>icameheretolaughatyou.jpg
When half your posts are signed by "laughing at Miata fanboys" or similar, you're a troll

Not him, but in the end the MX-5 is the best selling sports car in the history of the world and you are just a bitter faggot trashing a car you never drove in a Mongolian puppeteer forum.

How sad is that?

Dont forget the most raced car in the world on any given day

What's the point of an automatic Miata? It's not a Prius.

Well, according to this guy it is

I am not that kind of guy who thinks that every car should be manual but the MX5 is one of those few cars where you should get in manual. It's part of what makes it special.

>le miata is slow contrarian meme

Why you need a fast car if speed limit is 75mph? Talk about pointless.

probably because you keep acting like spergs

>lol ur 13
>u havent ever even driven the car XDD!!

you consistently come across as underaged carthrottle users that like the Miata because its a meme

see what I mean

>how dare you insult my memes!

Because some of these delusion fucks think they that are going to go to the track with a god damn miata and beat a GTR or some shit.

To get to the limit as fast as possible

I used to own a Miata. I wasn't impressed. My E36 M3 was way more fun. It had more power and handled better.

i think you just like making up stuff.

nobody said that.

the point of going to the track is having fun and you probably never have been to the track (drag strip doesnt count)

>Why do people like the miata so much?

Well, I like them because they have:

Plenty of power
Fun to Drive
Good Handling
Reliable

Also like the fact that there is nothing pretentious about these cars. It has always been "what you see is what you get".

>this upset about being called 13
Confirmed for 13

Nigger, I OWN a miata. I know the mind set of some of these fucks who them. Like you said, it's a fun car to just mess around with on the track.

because its nice to have a feeling of power instead of pressing a pedal and nothing happening

and youre still shelling out great arguments and proving me more right than yourself

>feeling of power
Confirmed for powerless cuck

How about you get fucking laid so you can actually understand what it means to have fun without worrying whether you're going to die a limpdick virgin

Fuck off Alex.

all this coming from an underaged kid who likes a car because its a meme

cant even make this up folks

>owns a car he doesn't like
>makes post shitting all over it
Cuck^10

>he needs power for fun
Insecurity sucks huh?

>D-D-DAMAGE CONTROL, CANT LET THEM KNOW ABOUT MUH INSECURITIES

lmao

now this is damage control

even projecting onto me their little problems

I'm not Alex.

You're the one that

>says power is the only thing that's fun
>hates miata because they don't meet that requirement of fun
>OWNS a Miata
>admits throwing them into corners is fun
>STILL doesn't get it
>STILL OWNS A MIATA

If you're disillusioned with "your car" just sell it. No need for sorrowful masturbatory shitposting.

Of course you don't actually have a Miata, you're just an angry misfit with an agenda, and you for some reason don't think everyone knows this already and you continue to shitpost into the night.

It was a joke m8. I highly doubt you're the killer of Phil.

>cant even follow an argument
>thinks I would ever own a Miata to begin with
>cant even grasp the basic concepts behind posts
>still mad I insulted his memes

Jesus H Christ user

>implying you aren't baiting
Feels like a gokart, very fun to drive
Lightweight
Cheap
Almost always in manual
Well balanced
Double wishbone suspension on all four corners
Huge aftermarket

a miata has enough power to have fun without getting yourself into trouble/danger
it's easy to drive a miata at its limits
it's simple to work on a miata

it's really a great first car

a 250-500cc sportbike is more fun than a miata and about the same price to own and track (and also faster)

also you can "trailer" it in the back of an SUV instead of having an actual trailer

>hurr memes
Kill yourself my man/10

You can also take it to bed with you

hey Im not the one who buys one then gets mad when called out over it

literally spent money on a meme

Oh okay. I have no idea what you're referring to but cool.

first post best post.

and if you don't enjoy the car then move on OR upgrade the suspension/engine bits

Hey I'm not the one who shitposts then gets mad when called out over it

Literally time and energy spent on a Sumerian cartography forum

>ninja 250/500
>more fun than a miata

wew

>Hey I'm not the one who shitposts then gets mad when called out over it

its funny because you did exactly that

>Literally time and energy spent on a Sumerian cartography forum

that too

damn son

>ninja 250
Yes, if you can ride or at least want to get good at it
>CBR250RR (MC22)
Even more yes
>Ninja 500
Definitely yes. If you can't have more fun with one of those than a miata and being scared shitless isn't a factor, something is wrong.

You've finally made a good point, gratz bby

The only car that can match the Miata is an AE86 but even then it's weeb taxed to death.

What rims are those on the miata?

>NO TRUE SCOTSMAN

>all this butthurt about these fun little cars

jesus christ, did miata rape your family or something? what the fuck is your problem?

sprint hart cp-r i believe
pretty fucking rare

man the hipsters are still mad people dont like their meme shitbox

you sound underage.

No such thing as a hipster. And nobody is mad that you don't like it.

>literally the most raced car in the world
>most popular sport car in the world
>won shitload of awards

it's the hipsters who hate them actually

Small, light, RWD, Manual, N/A, good handling and direct response. What more do you want?

>you sound underage

hey its the goto insult for someone projecting their age

>cheap cars get used

wow you dont say

nobody actually likes Miatas

theyre shit in every way they were just cheap at one point in time

>nobody actually likes Miatas

says some random nobody on Veeky Forums
i bet that whatever shitbox you drive didn't win even a quarter of the awards miata did

>benchracing awards

this is a new low

>nobody actually likes Miatas

keep telling yourself that. I mean there arent entire forums dedicated to miatas or anything

theres entire forums dedicated to just about every car out there stupid people will like anything

>fuck i don't know what to do, time to sprout some random buzzwords

holy shit you're hilarious, i hope you are only baiting and aren't this fucking retarded

miatas were kinda cool till every redditor 'car guy' started buying them

same with motorcycles

car culture has been appropriated. there's a lot of redditors on this site. majority of the posters probably.

how much hipster can you get?

>damage control

cool beans

Miatas went straight cringe once the "Miata is always the answer" shit started

I pretty much discredit Miata owners since most of them bought them due to a meme and just want to look cool to other car guys

*enthusiast

hipsters feign depth, i posses it.

so now youre moving goal posts.

I dont care if there are Geo metro forums, if those people enjoy the car, then fine, you seem butthurt and probably don't even own a car to begin with. Im done with your busriding ass. peace familila

I dont go on reddit so I never understood the hate on there but really who cares?

>Miatas went straight cringe once the "Miata is always the answer" shit started

ah, so this is why you are so butthurt
tell me, what irrelevant shitbox do you drive?

>le busrider maymay am I cool yet bros

fuck off Reddit

Miata "owners" are the cringiest bunch of posers

sorry I dont spend money on memes like a child lol

If it's hipster to hate foreign shitposters who should not be here, then just call me Sam and hand me a fucking pumpkin spice latte.

Fuck reddit.

is this temecula?

basically. nothing wrong with the car imo, but the community is epitome of 'car guy'
