enough said dude
Longer for no reason, heavier, slower, turbo lag, shifter doesn't feel as good, has an overdrive ratio for some fucking reason, more expensive, Fiat badge will make depreciation even meaner than it already is with the MX-5.
Two things that are a bit better in the Fiat are the Recaro seats, stiffer sways. The sways aren't a big deal because upgrading the stock MX-5 ones to nice adjustable ones is a cheap upgrade, even if you go with the gucci Karcepts sways. The Recaros are very nice though, and I wish that Mazda would offer them in the US, as they apparently do in other markets. The Fiat is also quieter. On certain surfaces you may as well forget about having a conversation in the Miata. Whether or not that's a good or bad thing is up to you.
Ultimately, though, it's a toy, and the Miata is simply better at being a toy than the Fiata is.
more masculine miata
If it had an NAV6 option it'd be fantastic.

Does the reliability suffer at all?
In Australia Fiats are considered unreliable, whereas Mazdas are seen on the same level as toyota/honda.
Basically, is the fiat version more likely to crap itself?
WHERE IS THE FUCKING HARDTOP VERSION FUCKING SIDE SWITCHING ITALIANS FUCK YOU
