its small, light, and WEAK.
yes, WEAK.
in the context of cars you drive in the real world, and not in a track, that is a GOOD thing.
if you own a BMW, you can NEVER really drive it hard. EVER.
step on the throttle for a couple seconds, you're breaking the speed limit.
keep stepping on it for a couple more, you're probably gonna die. unless you're on a highway, in which case you're looking at your license being taken away plus maybe some jail time.
in a miata, you can actually drive that thing HARD. you can launch it, rev out 1st/2nd to the limiter, and you're still not breaking the law. or, if you are, its not by a lot, you're still within the realm of just getting a ticket.
in the twisties? yea you can put your foot down hard after every turn, and keep it down for a while, and you'll still have time to break for the next turn. in a BMW, you're going off the road if you try that shit.
so yea, its fun because unlike "real" sports cars, you can actually drive it hard.
also its actually affordable, unlike a BMW.
