"You can't frown driving this thing, it makes you happy." Exactly the way I feel after buying my '16 last month. I've put about 1k miles on it since I got it, and its the most fun car I've ever had. Highly recommended. Thanks for your review.
@@applepieclub5012 I bought it as a 'fun' car, weekend driver, that sort of thing, as I have two other vehicles. BUT, its so pleasant and fun to drive I haven't even started the other vehicles since I got it. :D
I'm glad you finally got to review the ND with a manual transmission. As someone that daily drives an ND miata I can say I've gotten more interesting and fun interactions with random people than I did with my previous car.
Totally agree. I've had an NA for 12 years and that's my big takeaway from ownership. I smile just at the thought of driving it, let alone actually driving.
@@RedCoat232 Same here I've had mine since November, and I can't wait to drive it again, and again, and again. These things are fun at any speed. Granted it is the fat NC, but it's got light rotary forged wheels, and MeisterR coilovers. So much fun for so little money, if you buy one used.
People that have never driven a Miata will never understand. It's not about just sheer horsepower, its about balance. Every generation is just priceless to drive!
Update: Sold the RF within a month to get a soft top, same car but much better! Blind spots are gone the top down, no more irritating targa roof wind noise and the feeling of a real convertible! This thing is a blast to drive, never had so much fun with all my previous convertibles. Great review Sarah as always!
Just bought a 2021 last month. I absolutely love it. I would pick it over my Jeep SRT any day. So much fun. If they stop making them I’m buying another one to put away. Mine is poly metal grey with the grey top and it looks fantastic. And yes the manual transmission is the only way to go.
By far the best and funniest car review I have ever seen. Thanks!!! As someone who has worked in TV for decades and comedy for many of those years, kudos! Everything bout this delivery, timing etc is perfect! I love that none of the technical stuff is dumbed down. It feels like a date with Mona Lisa Vito from “My Cousin Vinny”. Love it!!
I've had two - older NB versions and they were/are amazingly dependable, easy to work on, and parts are inexpensive. There are lots of aftermarket modifications available. No one asks me to help them move.
Yay! I was weaned on English sports cars as a kid. My parents had a new Bugeyed Sprite then upgraded to a Healey 3000. My first car was a POS 56 MGA. 20 years later it was a Fiat 124 Spider. I really enjoyed this review as I have always felt that the Miata was what British sports cars evolved into. Kudos to Mazda and thanks to you for sharing this video.
This is why the Miata is the ultimate sports car. Fun at any speeds, relatively affordable, and just completely accessible to just about any driver. Big fan of all the Miatas, definitely a dream of mine to own one. I sat in the current model at the dealer last year, and it just clicked. Sarah, this review nails exactly what makes this little car so extraordinary.
Love your comments about the manual transmission. There's nothing more satisfying than grabbing your own gears! Keep up the great content because we love it. 🔥👍
Alright Sara, 5 Penguins means you really liked it ! I bought a 2016 Soft Top Club with the Brembo / BBS package in Artic White with the black aero effects & front splitter. The car is a blast to drive & the ND1 engine even has more torque than the ND2 down low RPMs. Its quick not fast but driving thru the gears every one gives you a pull. What you never saw coming ... its my daily driver in 4 season Northern Illinois. I put the winter tires on this car & when the snow flies its really equally fun because the chassis with the driver inside is 50 % front 50 % back in weight. So if your not in need of space this roadster has been absolutely a trouble free blast. Thru all the worst weather conditions this car has performed way beyond all I expected. Mazda really did a great job.
I love how much effort and care you put into the video editing side itself. Muting music on beat to show how quiet it is or to briefly let us hear the car. Never change Sarah, no matter how much youtube might want you to :)
This video just came up in my feed here at YT and it's no doubt because I own a 2020 Miata 100 Year Ann. edition and have watched lots of Miata videos. I'm floored by this lovely young lady's approach to car reviews. Sarah, I'm already a fan after watching just half of the clip. Keep 'em coming girl. You're awesome! 👍👍
I love your reviews Sarah. Nobody else is going to keep my attention while stopping in the middle of a driving review to talk to cows. Keep up the great work. B-)
Subscribed. The sheer delight written on your face when accelerating and braking the car was priceless ! And revealing of what every true car enthusiast feels about the joy of driving a car without a lot of electronic trickery.
Loved this review! I had an RF and agree, it just looks better. It’s also more comfortable and liveable day to day. Those painted tops on the doors that carry into the dash, they flow from the very visible hood and fenders, bringing the lines of the car into the cabin. A really nice design touch. They are quicker than people expect, but they also just launch so beautifully if you stamp on it from standstill. Because the diff and gearbox are braced together, there is no backlash. I did find it too small for someone who is 6’2”, not because I couldn’t fit, but because the footwell is so narrow you have absolutely no chance of ever readjusting in it. These are an absolute gem. Yeah there are faster cars, but you nail it when you talk about happiness factor.
Great review Sarah , I liked the new camera angels ...I'm a big beliver in driving a slow car fast ,not a fast car slow ... Driving a slow car fast your will have a smile all day long and you don't go to jail 🙂
I have a '96 (First Gen). I love it, even needing more HP. Such fun to drive! I look forward to an ND purchase in the future... once depreciation kicks in! Thanks Sarah!! As always, I enjoy the effort you put into your content!
The NA DNA is in the new ND1 & ND2. Lightweight with nimble handling in corners that needs you to drive it to extract the speed out of every gear change. They really don't need more HP to be fun cars to drive.
The very best feature of buying my Miata(s) this past summer has been stumbling across Sarah-N-Tuned as a result. I rarely have time to drive them though because I'm spending all my free time on RUclips. Love all your videos & just received my package of various merch. :-)
In '98, I bought a base model and absolutely loved it. No power steering, no AC, no power windows or locks, no nothin'! Just power disc brakes and a steering wheel air bag. That's it. The rest was just pure Miata!
I have a 2019 ND2 (Sept) MX-5 Miata RF GT-Sport Nav+ 2.0 as a daily driver and every day driving it I'm grinning like a 5 year old with the best go-cart ever. It's so much fun it's insane. Miata 4 life. Great review Sarah!. 🤟🏻
Ok so I've always been a Mazda fan, and Miata especially, but it seems like Mazda is really killing it these days. All their models are awesome right now and have really high reliability.
@@doggieboy773a only the first NDs (2015-2016 production Years) had a Transmission issue up to the chassis number 130000 the later ones have got an updated Transmission and honestly MX5s weren't built for heavy Track and Autocross usage. They're were built just for the casual driving weekend on twisty roads
I have watched at least ten Miata reviews, yours is one of the best. You covered all the right points, and even reported one thing that I really wanted to know, that no-one else has mentioned. Thank you. Excellent review.
It's more fun to drive fast in a slow car than drive slow in a fast car. As opposed to the Hellcat. Still a pretty quick ride. You should take a look at Uncle Tony's Chrysler powered Miata, Winky.
Mazda continues to keep a real roadster alive. With your reaction and shear joy for this car, I agree with another commenter… cancel the Bronco and get yourself a 5-penguin dream! 👍
Just sold my ls3 swapped corvette to buy one of these. I appreciate you leaving the cow part in. That’s exactly how my wife and I are going to be using it.
Reminds me of my old 1969 Fiat 124 Sport Spyder, just up to date, getting onto a busy freeway from a slow on-ramp by redlining second then dropping into fifth.
I don't know...I sure enjoy the "get it little truck" off road reviews! I can't imagine how hard Sarah would push it in her own Bronco. I would hope there are lots of "oh shit handles" if one were fortunate enough to ride shotgun up the desert trails!
Your enthusiasm and energy is contagious. And I agree, the under the car part of the review is brilliant, unique and innovative, particularly when combined with your silly and educated commentary :)
As someone that has image searched full under-body views of cars many times, thank you for including it in your reviews now. I have not a clue how this works, but if that alone is searchable, it will help someone in the future. I own a NB, that was custom ordered with an automatic, with 3,000 original miles on it, so torn on what to do with it once it's fixed.
As someone who had a Mazda as their first car, in manual, I know that feeling of driving fast and having a blast all within the city speed limits. Great review, and 5 penguins is high praise! Also it’s weird watching James May in your garage
The MX-5 has always been one of my bucket list cars. It's also the sports car bargain of the century....and that 2.0 is a masterpiece since Mazda upped the power and redline. I will definitely own one of these at some point. And I totally agree, the RF does look a little sexier, but the raw connectedness of the soft top is better.
Love it. And I've been cursed to love cars I have no hope of fitting into. I was too tall for this by the summer between 7th and 8th grade. But still love it - sounds way better than expected.
I don't know how tall you are mate, but at 6'3" I couldn't get comfortable in the ND. Bought a 2008 NC with retractable hardtop just over a year ago as my daily driver, gives me the same stupid grin, but is perfectly comfortable. I get a lot of "how do you get in and out of that?!" comments inevitably. Might be worth a try?
37 people don't know what real fun is. Had a RF nd1 and traded that up for soft top nd2 in mid 2019. I love these cars for all the same aforementioned reasons. Simple, engaging, fun. Sways, springs, konis and wilwood brakes f/r .. perfection.
I own a 2016 ND1, and it's my daily driver..... To the tune of 160,000 miles on it so far, with no major mechanical issues. Original clutch, and the AC is still cold! I've owned 17 cars, and this is my favorite, followed by my 1999 NB Miata!
"You Don't Buy One of These to Impress Other People, You Buy One of these to Impress Yourself" -> perfectly said Sarah. Poetic almost :-)
Cat-looking car in manual, what more do you want?
It'll be second wife some men's out there, definitely better than cheating on your love of your life.
Excellent comment Sarah.
As an ND owner, you've hit the nail on the head on what the Miata is all about - Smiles for Miles!
Sarah, the LOOK on your face driving that car down the road... PRICELESS!
It really did make me smile a lot!

Shame about the styling.

"you could wax this!" - the detail force is strong with this one!
You could also repaint that after ten years of driving with your arm out the window. (Sorry, I'll let myself out....)

As a native aluminum speaker, I concur. Feels funny , but great to hear a Nth American accent pronounce it this way

Road & Track called the Miata the best thing you can do with your pants still on … that was about 40 years ago :-)
It hasn't changed.

Rare to see an engine that isn't covered by tons of plastic these days
New 2022 Civic actually cut back on the plastic covering, so that's cool
The engineers actually opted for an aluminum valve cover. It adds weight over a plastic one but they thought it was the right thing to do.
It definitely has 90s jdm vibes
More I look, more impressed I am.

I bought a 2019 6 speed manual RF. I can agree that it is impossible to be unhappy while driving one. The automotive equivalent to a Wodehouse novel.
Great review Sarah. I have the RF and it is an absolute tonic to own. Love it so much!

Hi Sarah, I’m thinking you should cancel the Bronco and get this Miata, you’re so happy in the car.....it’s for you.
I second this motion to cancel the Bronco. Sarah seems to be more of a street car vs a dirt truck person
I was about to make the same comment but I'm here to third the motion instead.

I agree, failing that maybe an older model project.
Restoring cars is fun to watch, buying new just seems boring, like I wouldnt even watch Bronco content, just my 2 cents
Your enthusiasm and energy is contagious. And I agree, the under the car part of the review is brilliant, unique and innovative, particularly when combined with your silly and educated commentary :)

The ND1 is actually a little quicker off the line from a start. Its missing the revs at the top end.
Great review Sarah, love your quirkiness. Got love those close ratio gearboxes, keeps you in the powerband for more fun.
"Hello little veals" ...from the mind of Sarah. 😂😂😂
That was funny.
The funny thing is, that's what I call them too :)
How cute is Sarah!
What an impressive company Mazda is, to continue building this fun, low-volume sports car for driving enthusiasts.
The NA's were not low volume! they sold 400,000 the first 7 years. They have sold over 1,000,000 since 1990 most successful sports car ever!
The best video I've ever seen for MX5
