aka Miata MX5 in the US of A.
I've been looking for a car since April after my contract ended with former employer who provided a smallish underpowered farmer-oriented vehicle. Now, after three months, I finally found a cool ride with an easy price tag:
The Mazda MX-5, also known as Miata (IPA: /mi'αrə/ or /mi'αtə/) in North America and Roadster (IPA: /'lodostα/) in Japan, is a sports car built by Mazda in Hiroshima, Japan, since 1989. Its introduction was a significant development in the motor car industry that revived the roadster segment of sports cars, with other companies promptly introducing roadsters to their model ranges, such as the MG F, and the third-generation Toyota MR2.
There have been three generations of the MX-5, consisting of major stylistic and mechanical upgrades. The first generation, designated NA, sold over 400,000 units. It was produced from 1989 to 1993 with a 1.6-liter straight-4 engine, and from 1994-1997 with a 1.8-liter engine. The NA can be recognized by its distinctive pop-up headlights. The second generation (NB) was introduced in 1998 with a slight increase in engine power; it can be recognized by the fixed headlights, and the glass rear window. The third generation (NC) was introduced in 2005 with a 2.0-liter engine; it can be recognized by the fender bulges over the wheel wells. wiki-link
I managed to find an affordable (used) one. It was delivered yesterday to my school. Loving the exhaust note right now!
