A good deal is a good deal. I wouldn't have purchased a Cruze unless it was nicely discounted, which is how I assumed GM was selling so darn many.

Miata is the correct answer, yet missing from your poll... So it is obviously flawed.


If you buy a Corolla over a miata you deserve to be punched in the d!ck, then banned from any and all car forums.

FYI. OP recently sold his Miata. I believe he was looking for something else. So Miata is not ALWAYS the correct answer for everything.

LOL you Miata owners are so cute. Jesda, once you finally bought yours, you began complaining regularly about what problems you had with it and lamented abut missing your Ducky. And Chris, I remember when you bought yours and were so proud. but then your li'l zoom-zoom quickly began leaking more fluids than the Titanic, then you found more rust & cheap bondo under the paint than a 30 yr old Yugo. Now your car has spent months sitting in your garage being fixed. My gosh, the amount of hypocrisy makes it feel like a presidential debate here. :)

Mine leaks and makes a horrendous noise, and the clutch slips, but I still drive the piss out of it and enjoy it. :)

I also have 2 other cars though, so when its being fickle, I just put it back on the shelf.

LOL. It doesn't leak anymore at least. Trust me though, I've come very close to pushing it out in the street and setting it on fire multiple times.

For some odd reason my wife would rather me keep sinking money in to it than replacing it though. Probably because she knows I'd have to spend even more money if I started over again on something else.

NOTHING can truly replace the joy and magic of an old Saab. You can't even duplicate that kind of off-beat magic in a half-million dollar exotic. Even Saab tried unsuccessfully to chase that feeling for 20 years.


Statistically, Miatas are damn near flawless. Mine was chock full of issues, unfortunately.




As a VW guy, you should be banned from talking about anything that isn't a tow truck. :biggrin:

I have a litmus test for people I call friends:
--Likes Miatas
--Supports the troops
--Hates Nickelback and Coldplay


Anyone who fails to fit these criteria should be forced to inhale VW diesel emissions.

Whew, I passed the litmus test. There are perks to having a few friends with diesel VW's. If I want to rid my neighborhood of mosquitos or disperse a crowd of noisy loitering teens,, I invite the Veedub guys over for a beer and ask them to rev their motors a few times. problem solved. :dblthumb:
