Except for those that should be a certain shade of green.

The latest version is getting great reviews in the motoring press in Australia.  Friend of mine has an older model (2005) and loves it. Like the colour - I had my 1973 Escort resprayed in a very similar colour.

Looks good, Larry. Known at the MX-5 over here - a very popular ladies sports car, still in high demand.
This is actually my fourth Miata/Eunos/Mx-5, but my first NB, the others were all NAs.  They have a reputation here of being a “woman’s car”.  I’m fine with them being popular with women, particularly attractive women that I might want an opportunity to chat with.

In the motorsports community there is a saying “the answer is always miata”.  They are fun to drive, get decent gas mileage and are just a little bit more reliable than an anvil.  The best racing I have ever seen is in a class called Spec Miata.  In the last race I did with the SCCA, I qualified mid grid, a friend was gridded directly in front of me with a qualifying time .030 seconds faster than mine, the guy next to me was .030 slower.  So, on a 3 mile (5km) track,  about .060 seconds which works out to about 10ft (3m) separated the qualifying times of four cars, or two rows of the grid.
