- This week Mazda USA sent me the 2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF. This is quite possibly the best Miata that has ever been made, EVER. Yes, that does include the first generation Miata. This week I will be living with the most powerful Mazda MX-5 Miata ever made and see what it's like! Though this has its fair share of draw backs, this 2019 revised version takes the Miata right where it's always needed to be! Remember to like this video if you enjoyed it!

I never knew living with a miata video is about telling bout the features it got instead of magnifying how daily use is
I got a little disappointed as well, I didn’t see any difference between 2 hours with Miata versus a week with Miata. I was curious as well if it would fit 1 or 2 carry on on the trunk. But anyway, not 100% of someone’s channel is going to meet our expectations:m :/
Totally unbiased toO
And the fact that after he pushed it into a parking spot he forgot to put the E brake on lol heard some story people's who went grocery shopping n comes out looking for their lost miata ending up rolling down the parking lot somewhere 😅
Bought this car in August and I’ve never been happier! I love my girl!!!
Thanks for this review. It was really different from most mx-5 reviews and gave great perspective. This special little car deserved it. I especially loved the fly-by shots starting at 8:28 and the night view of the exterior and interior lighting. Love the blueish white colour of the dials and that sweet 7500rpm tach.
Great job, very unique perspective. Better presentation than all the other formulaic word talkers from the other car magazines. Thanks for your work!
Looks like you were having lots of fun! Great video!!
I ordered this car at the end of july and just got a call from the dealer that it just arrived today. Can't wait to finally get it :D
what color and what made u decide for that color? I cant decide man..
Polyrytmi Recommended the Grey one because i own my 2019 version myself
What made you buy this instead of the soft top?
juiuffophiguo Easier to Clean
How is it?
Fantastic review! Very detailed and I specifically appreciated how you described the effortless feel of the clutch/shifter, and how the light flywheel enables lightning-fast shifts and throttle response. These are very important details to know, and too many reviewers don't go into details about them
The shots of this car at night are cool. Thanks.
"The cupholders are probably one of the worst parts of the Miata"
Welcome to 2019.
Not like they were ever good. More like, welcome to Miata.
Originally there were no cupholders. Only improvised ones. ie the Ashtray, right in the way of shifting.
I mounted a flip up one ($4 at ChinaMart) exactly where you stick the new passenger one. The flip up was the best type and place in that car.
The cup holders are movable and can be placed on the front right side of the center consoul. Check it our its pretty cool
If you had the older Miata's you would say the cup holders on a 2019 is a god send LMAO
Who cares about cupholders? 😂
Dude, really good review. I think your channel has some great potential. Keep doing what you’re doing. You have found a nice niche.
I've watch TONS of car reviews, by so many different car reviewers.
You, sir,....are the best. Nice work.
Great review man, gives a more familiar view of how everything would look thank you, and yes i want this car even more now.... that night view of the car was amazing!
Hey man love your balanced review, greetings from England!
My God! This is my dream car at the moment!!
A. Ghouth guess you haven’t heard about the jaguar f type 2020 r
Berseria who tf wants a 100k plus car
Thunder 12 Not gonna like my dream car is a 2017 Viper GTS 😂
Good review man, it made me want one even more...
I just love that it has the :D face to greet you when you come out to it.
Great job, Forrest! Thanks for the review.
This is the best video to introduce the Mazda MX-5 Miata. Overall from the video that Miata is a good car, I totally agree with you about the cup holder which really not a good design, except that, it is an amazing sport car!! I hope one day I could afford one of this beauty!
one of the best mx 5 reviews
i have 1000 dollars saved i just need 34,000 dollars more to buy it
you can do it
A used RF is around 23000
abram garibay Or you can fucking finance or lease it?
@@michaeldevin8301 he wouldn't be able to afford it.. very bad idea
Used they are 25k grand tour package
After watching this.
Yup. Getting one.
Fantastic review! I’ve decided to pick one of these up as my next car because of this.
Great review, and it's refreshing to see someone who can actually shift properly doing a MX-5 review. Good job
Very Fine done. Greetings from Berlin, Germany from a MX5 Driver since 2006.
The cup holders would annoy me exactly 0.0 times. Related note: Hydrate BEFORE you drive your sports car.

Shown in another review, cupholders are MOVABLE, can be relocated forward on console,
a clever fix for your interference problem. Check it out.
Yeah I generally don't feel any need to have large, sweating drinks in a car...especially where they will drip on the floor, seat, center console, etc. ;) Maybe a nice bottle of soda that I can securely cap, and where I won't worry about spills.
Unsurprisingly, spacep0d gets it. (Love your content brother, still riding a 'zx3r' myself) Not ditching the cup-holders into a parts drawer to save a few ounces is an insult to the design philosophy of the car anyway.
Same here. I never eat or drink in my car.
I think NC had the best cup holders, the ones embedded in the doors.
I always forget that you guys in the US actually use the cupholder
How else are we gonna hold our 80 ounce cup of pop ?
thats why we're also the fattest nation in the world.
We need cupholders to hold our diet soda when we order a Big Mac combo.
@@poncho828 I could put back 4 of those right now yummm !
That's because you always forget that commutes are longer in the US.
Im leasing this exact spec miata. Only in red of course! Its amazing! The added hp is pretty sweet along with the increased rpm.
Looks like fun. I had a 99 that was a blast but had to give it up for a WRX, since it didn't really have enough room for a 6' guy. One of the smoothest little sports cars I ever owned.
I love the RF for sure and this just made it like it more
Looks like fun! Thanks for the review
Very tempting! Well done review!
Great video dude! I can't wait to grab one
Awesome car and fantastic review 👌😎🎶🎶🎶👏👏👍
Great review. Shows you everything you could want.
Complaining about the cup holders in a Miata is akin to bemoaning the fact that your supermodel girlfriend defecates. And no one would be allowed in my car with a 92-oz. fountain drink in the first place.
Or the mess of Ripple Potato Chips 1 lb. Bag... LOL... :)
Hahaha ha... I agree
A Miata needs cup holders like a coffee table needs a steering wheel.
@@davidpritchard40 that would be a cool coffee table tho
LOL love this comment.
Love your videos, and love that car!
7:49 that phrase would have worked in nearly any other circumstance but this! 😄 great review, thank you.
13:03 wind noise is really bad in the rf with top down AND windows up. Try it with the top down and windows down, its still noisy but not as bad at speed. The fastback creates a parachute effect that catches all the wind and creates the noise just behind your ear. The soft top does not have this issue with the top down and windows up.
Ordered mine today. Its the rf gt euro spec, only 160bhp but its my first rear wheel drive car so i need to get used to it first.
Should be here this friday 👍 dropped 35k on it 🤤 looking forward to hitting the irish countryside on the west coast. The weather is scorching hot at the moment 😉😁
The Lumberjackass congrats man i want one so bad! What gas do you usually fill it up with because some say Premium for full horsepower but regular is fine too. Just curious
I like it that you can easily make the car slide when you come out of a corner!
Great review!
I love the RF Fastback. All the good looks of a coupe, but with some open air feel of a convertible (and less win) whilst looking way better than a convertible. I also like how the open/closing mechanism is automated. Very nice.
This is one great-looking car. I don't care at all about cup-holders. :D
well no hate but just wanted to say that RF stands for "retractable fastback" so u cant say "rff" 😅
9:00 Um, yeah . . . you might want to reapply that parking brake.
or put it in gear :P
Excellent review.... sweet car! Subscribed
Great video. White RF will probably be my next car, fingers crossed.
excellent car and review. Thanks.
Good driving. Good review.
Great video and great car ..
New unit of measure: Kneecaps.
Murican powa!
American use anything but metric to measure
Loved it! Thanks.
I'm all about the Soul Red, but I never knew a white Miata would look so beautiful 😍
Thanks for the size comparison shown. Although not exactly shown, an aerial angle would be appreciated. However, nice vid man.
Very nice video and fun to watch. Have a nice day.
Excellent review.
My wifes 3 has the same pearl. Looks beautiful after wash and wax.
That car is perfect.
The fact that you can see some of the individual flakes through a cell phone camera is insane
I like your vids. Do you normally run without the front plate? Looks so much better.
man white and machine grey looks amazing dunno which one to get
I watch several parts of this video in slow motion. Whewwwww.
Those seats look amazing. So few cars have high end leather anymore.
Great car this will be a great hit. Thumbs up.
I'm certain I will own one of these when it's almost thirty years old, just like my NA is now. I think Mazda really hit it out of the park with this car. Hopefully they will stand the test of time!
Yeah I know what you mean. On the bright side not many are worth saving anyway. @Ben Passlow
Great review Forrest. I'm also 6ft and coming from a sedan. Can I pull this off as a daily driver? Or was it uncomfortable after a week
No one is buying that car for storage or cup holder. They just being nice. And they did an excellent job providing those features. Talk about how much fun it is to bang out the Rpm lol
Vickram Dass. The cup holder was just a factory adoption of driver aftermarket mods of the Mk1 MX5. I had a flip cupholder mounted on the console screw along the passenger side footwell in my 1990.
Before this move and stab holders, most drivers used the Mk1 ash tray area, which was a Miata aftermarket piece, and became a std feature on the later models.
I always hated all the plastic "locking ha ha" bins surrounding the top area in the Mk2 Miata. I could get so much more in the naked rear shelf than those bins. I used to take the car camping.
Car looks great, day and night
Driving through tunnel:
Forrest: wooohooo
Friend: :|
Man this would pair nicely with my Infiniti Q50. Love it!
Very nice review. Any trying to decide between it and the soft top.
Could you mention blind spots with the pillars on the RF?
I literally had to pause cause some of those highways reminded me of Dallas. And beholdthere was a sign that said Dallas.
Such A fun little car, great review man.
I have one - and i L O V E it! Its an amazing car and so much fun. Ok - everything is small...but as i said: its fun. Special here in Germany - our runways are straight as airpot runways and u can drive as fast as u like. I just can recommend it to everyone!
I want one same color lol...great weekend car!
I have it! The RF is what I wanted, and I found it at Carvanna. So far I have loved it!
A fellow Fort Worth-ian!
Beautiful car, I would love to get in one and just have fun... I'm just to big for it to be a long term user ;-;
A very very nice car and for France also ! Viva Mazda
@10:00 when you were saying your elbow hits the drink when operating the multimedia control button - I suggest move the drink to the other holder. It worked for me and it's also easier to access. It's not the most comfortable angle but I got used to it. This or, put the holder on the passenger side if you don't have a passenger. I agree it's not the best setup and it will take some time go get used to it but I think the cupholders' location in Mazda 6 is actually worse. It takes up a big chunk of the armrest and instead of your elbow resting on it, you end up resting it on the drinks or the cupholder's lid- which obviously is not solid or comfortable enough . I found this much worse in day to day usage. If you have a large/tall cup 400-500ml or bottle you end up hitting it every time you switch the gears too...With that being said, as always, great video. I always enjoy your car reviews
My dream car.
I have one on order in the red Im sooooooooooooo excited I cant wait for it to arrive have to wait 3 months to get it but its soo going to be worth the wait
How was it?
@@genrej2908 OMG I love it so much so nice to drive so worth the money everyone comes up to me and asks what it is its an awesome shape and the red is wicked
where you live at bro? And how much this one would cost second hand? What you prefer the rf or soft top? I wanna have one im still 21 and planning to buy this soon
7 adverts in, you have my sub -
Mazda=best gear boxes!
Receiving my car from the dealership next week, and picked the soul red color. Sadly no manual transmission available in my country, only automatic. Tho looking forward to finally drive the car :)
I’m seriously considering this over a 2017 BMW F30 335i, the 2019 MX-5 is more expensive but it seems to be such a perfect car all around for daily use and spirited driving. I’ll definitely go with the RF version for the road noise reduction on the highway.
hey danny,go for it man id not waste your time or funds w bmw,just saying esp if your seeking longevity with either of the 2 and i feel itll be in service and getting fixed vs actual enjoyment which is why "i" steered-clear from the toyota-bmw/supra 3.0 and focused on the 2021 miata-rf/gt=couldnt be happier,and you dont have the piece-of-mind you have/get with the miata rf or soft-top,just MY opinions.and this rf has plenty, plenty of torque very torque/rev-happy car,near perfect id not make it by no means a 'daily driver'.and i LOVE mine in pure stock-form,leaving it that way as well;...plenty of 'engine sound' and love the bose stereo clarity is top-notch at least to me.
Definitely should go with mx5..... 2nd hand bmw are more dangerous than mustangs drifting
Just bought a 2016 Miata GT a few months back. Not hardtop, but still absolutely crazy beautiful and fun car. Tip: GET IT IN MANUAL! You won't regret it. I certainly don't regret a single cent buying it - managed to snatch a wonderful deal at $16k for 23k miles.
lol, how much was the "red engine cap upgrade"? $500? That cracked me up.
These are so sweet. I'll definitely be scoping out a used one in a few years.
i'm digging the maroon interior. would looks nice in my club with cherry top
Bruh i see u in all mx5 videos
Mazda makes great cars... I'm going to get my forstcaports car in a few months so I'm deciding between a 2013 miata and a 2013 Mazda speed 3
Excellent review I like a lot I just have a question. Why do you turn the steering wheel like that? Is trying to do the drift? Thank you
It was sliding..
Best review of the MX5 I've seen yet .
YES PLEASE 😁
My dream car. One day it will be mine. Oh yess..it WILL be mine.
Love the colors inside and out!,👍👍👍 But when you sit behind the wheel, looking over the hood, the car seems bigger than it really is. Oh, and when sitting...leave room for a helmet??🤔🤔😂😂😂
Nice review man. What is the price as configured of your model?
great car. the miata is a rare litle gem in todays era of cars. of light rear wheel drive car thats driver oriented, pure, raw, and engaging. and it can drop the top. its magical it really is
Could this be the car to replace my 01 Celica? 🤔 Love your reviews!! ❤
Any generation of Miata would be an upgrade.
I LOVE mx-5 RF + MT👍
Nice
Wish I had that brown nappa color in 2016!
Bella bella!!
