The demand for sedans and sports cars might not be as great as what it used to be, but that has just made car manufacturers work even harder to make their cars appealing. There are a lot of new cars to pick from, and whether you are looking for a practical daily sedan or a …
Convertible sports cars are a popular ticket item, but some of them can cost you an arm and a leg to own. There are a few little roadsters available on the market, however, that won’t make you break the bank to get your hands on one. The Mazda MX-5 Miata is one of them that has …
Mazda isn’t the only Japanese automaker with an influential sports car. Honda has created its fair share as well. The S2000 competed directly with the Miata, and the NSX proved that supercars could genuinely be daily-drivable. But, as with the first Civic Type R and Nissan Skyline GT-R, some sporty JDM cars are only now …
While most special edition cars can be seen as “gimmicky,” we don’t feel like that’s the case with the MX-5 that’s being rolled out to celebrate Mazda’s 100th anniversary.

Although used car prices are expected to drop, especially with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it’s not like every single one will be universally affordable. True, a used Porsche Cayman or Audi S4 is a great deal, especially compared to a new model. However, they’ll never be truly cheap. Trying to find a car under $5000 …
Although the Mazda Miata isn’t the only affordable sports car on the market, it is one of the most popular. That popularity means there’s a ton of aftermarket support for almost any kind of Miata build you could think of.

By 2006 the Mazda MX-5 Miata had become the benchmark for affordable roadsters in the United States. It had been on the market for over twenty years, with competitors disappearing in its wake.
