2006 Mazda MX5 Sport review from North America
"Sport Car Enthusiast's Dream"
General comments?
Fantastic machine based on Mazda's superb reputation with the MX-5. 2006 MX-5 sport handles exceptionally well to driver's inputs and displays the same characteristics of more expensive sports cars (e.g., S2000, Z3/4, etc). After checking out the Solstice, before buying the MX-5, I'm an even bigger fan of the the MX-5 now. Aside from driving qualities other great features are the top, instrument cluster, and 6 speed manual transmission.

| 2004 - MX5 Mazdaspeed GT 1.8 liter turbo A better version of an already spectacular roadster! |
| 2002 - MX5 1.8 Fuel Injection. V.V.T. This car ranks about a 6 out of 10, great weekend toy, but not a very good every-day driver |
