What's New for the 2005 Mazda Miata?
Since we're due to see a completely redesigned version of this smile-inducing roadster in the next year or two, the only change for the 2005 Mazda Miata is the addition of two new colors, Nordic Green and Razor Blue.
Advantages of the 2005 Mazda Miata:
- One of the best manual shifters on the market
- Telepathic and razor sharp steering
- Go-cart handling characteristics
- Impressive brakes
- Top drops in a matter of seconds and can be easily raised from the driver's seat
- Glass rear window with defroster
- Surprising comfort levels
Objections to the 2005 Mazda Miata: - Standard engine could use more power
- Limited stowage in the cabin and trunk
- Raucous cabin even with the top up
- Hard for people with big feet to heel-and-toe
- Plenty of shake and wiggle in the structure
Editor's Advice:
Elemental sports cars don't get much better than the 2005 Mazda Miata. Downsides to Mazda Miata ownership include interior noise when the thin top is raised and a paltry amount of storage and cargo space, but these are things people expect when shopping for a sports car. Not only is the 2005 Mazda Miata a blast to drive, it's stone cold reliable. Sales of this iconic roadster, the best selling in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records, have disappointed lately, and dealers are selling them for well below sticker price. If you're looking for inexpensive therapy, the 2005 Mazda Miata is one way to paste a big, fat, sloppy grin on your face every time you get behind the wheel.
