1994 Mazda MX5 Miata M Edition review from North America
"A solid, reliable, fun car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Minor valve noise on start up on cold days at about 50,000 miles. Cleared up with an oil additive.
Alignment has gone out couple of times.
Had to replace the top at 75,000 miles.
General comments?
A great car. What the MGB, Fiat Spider, and many other roadsters should have been: fun and reliable!
