- Speedy drives the latest iteration of the most raced and popular sports car in history. He quickly finds out that it's pretty gosh darn good but also...lacking something important....

Really love the style of this video and the personality of it. Even as a non-car guy viewer, it’s interesting to watch.
The funny thing about your comment regarding the RF top having more components, with more potential to go wrong... there are no complaints, or not enough to have bubbled up to the surface to be discussed by folks, but there are tons and TONS of complaints regarding the soft top; wear, rips, broken clips, broken frames, and many more. All of which usually get replaced under warranty, meaning that they occur during the 36 month/36k mile bumper to bumper warranty. Look it up, everything I just said is true. Having said that, I have a soft top for many reasons, but I'd be lying if I didn't admit to being worried.
haha Yea... saying a new Japanese car would have a mechanical roof failure is definitely a moot point--I'm used to European cars where that happens all too often.
Interesting how the soft top has problems...I still would like to drive one back to back with the RF to see if it feels any lighter though!
@@TheSpeedyGuidy Please do drive one and make a comparison!
My daily driver 2020 MX-5 RF GT has 20k miles and the top functions like new even though I open and close it at least once a day. Very simple mechanism, I expect it to last as long as the power windows.
It is not fast, but it is incredibly fun at high speed driving, and everything else.
If you don't like it then spend 75 to 150k on a Vette!! Me, I'll stick to this for under 40k. Enough fizz at that price point. Lol
Hello, Sir;
First, Your hair, looks like the 1970s!! ( Austin Powers 😂) Ain't nothing wrong with that!
Your video, has Great Cinematography! Great Audio & Great Product Knowlede!! ( I even like the Scottish Brog ). 🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷🍾🍾🍾🍾🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍻🍻🍻🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂 Mister drinking aficionado 😂
All the very best Shaun 🦉of NYC 🗽
HAHAHA funniest comment to date! I consider myself a discount Austin Powers so that's a huge compliment :)
Another excellent review my friend - great summary of a legendary car. I love that this car embodies & inspires happiness…just like a pug. Keep the reviews comin!!
haha Could this truly be the automotive equivalent of a pug?? Possibly!! Thanks for the support, as always bud!
Having owned a NA and now a ND, your bang on about the two. Still love my old ‘97 NA and wish I didn’t have to get rid of it when I started a family, but the ND2 RF I have now does a very good job giving me what I want. Nothing beats the original though.
Some positivity! Thank you for watching!
Super review… BUT this colour is not Deep Crystal Blue, but Polymetal grey.
He doesn’t miss 🔥
My first miata was an NA 1990 and I switch for ND RF and no regret. I prefer my ND all day long. More reliable, more comfortable, more power for almost the same weigh. For me it is a win upgrade. I use it on track and my god this car is fun.
It may not be the fastest sportscar on the market but it's still fast enough...
Mine is...and that's precisely the point...
Few years back I visited Alice cafe once, with a ND Miata ❤
Great editing and total video. Sad to hear you didn't love it but great commentary! Do you like the new Toyota GR more?
Thank you! I haven’t had the pleasure of driving a GR86 but I’ve heard it’s leagues better in handling. I personally prefer it from what I see/read. Just gotta get my hands on one!
Good review. I don't know if I agree with the beer vs dom perignon though lol. I have a GTC4 Lusso. Sure, it's not the craziest Ferrari out there...about the same performance as a $65k RS3 from 0-60 to be honest, but I love the performance, luxury, refinement and practicality of this car combined. I also have a 2020 ND2 RF and I really love driving this car as well. If I have to pick, I would say that I enjoy driving the Miata more. It makes me happier while performing the act of driving the car itself. The GTC4 makes me happy in other ways, but not really its driving dynamics. It's more so the "Ferrari" aspect of the car and the exterior/interior designs; I love the way it looks, and it also sounds amazing.
I'd argue that the GTC4 is the least "Ferrari" of all the modern Ferraris. It's one badass family hauler that can do it all. I personally love it. It's definitely the coolest daily ever. The Dom analogy was probably better suited to a more exotic model like an F8. I think having more than one kind of drink in your bar is more important than having the most impressive champagne collection :)
@@TheSpeedyGuidy I definitely agree with having more than one kind of drink in your bar!
@@BN99239 the Lusso might be the best drink of them all! Let me think on what that would be for a minute .... :)
The suspension sits too high for the perfect driving manners.
Ive owned my 2021 MD from new, and the installation of the Eibach Sportline springs and Bilstein shocks, has transformed the ride of my car.
Its no firmer than the original suspension,which was surprising, but body roll has been virtually eliminated and the handling has been transformed.
Its by far the best modification you can carry out to your MD
this channel gonna go big
!!!!
Cool review, with a very open and fresh approach. Can you do BMW E93 or E46 or F33?
I'd love to! All I need is the car... :)
They're not "fast" but they are QUICK!
Gotchu bud ☘️👋
The car is not fast, the car is quick...
Looking to get a new nd and still have my nc
I'll be honest... I have never driven the NB or NC so I can't tell ya if it's an upgrade-- but what I can tell you is that this car is a perfectly fine daily and fun canyon carver for weekends. It definitely seems to have an edge on quality over past gens.
well done as always🤌🏽
So sick of 'too cool for school' reviewers saying the Miata is slow. It's actually plenty quick and it feels even quicker because of it's simple light weight design. I've become really annoyed with the obsession with 500hp+ sports cars that most wannabe racing drivers couldn't handle if they tried. The Miata is actually the car most enthusiasts SHOULD want, but they want bigger numbers just for bragging rights or some such nonsense. It's truly idiotic.
I agree!
SIMPLY a terrific review 👏 so clear and enjoyable, even for a very low-level car expert like me
Grazie Carlo! Watch enough of these videos and you will be a HIGH-level car expert :)
I am the lone wolf Italian who enjoys a cap after dinner 😂
Cattivo!
The MX5 is more like a bottle of Buckfast ya ken
So many opinions that are marginally useful. Sorry
Whatchu you wanna know?
Why do all you reviewers love to throw gravel when you take off? Don’t ever ask to borrow my car!
HAHA no body panels were harmed in the making of this film!
Opinions are like assholes. Everyone's got one. And that is what these "reviews" are. Opinions.
You are absolutely right
First off: is that a Pluto Moonswatch?
Second re slowcarfastfastcarslow: oh 100%, one of my driving favorite memories was driving a 2001 Honda insight manual, on a twisty road I knew pretty well, at night. I couldn’t have been going faster than 35? 37? Mph but I was giggling like an idiot the entire time 🤌
1: yes, thanks for noticing
2: hell yess
