Are you purchasing this as a 'hobby car', a weekender or a daily? Having owned a string of highly strung motor vehicles, no pun intended, I now own a current model Mazda MX-5 (Power Retracting Hardtop)as well as my day car and only one motorcycle (seriously massaged). The Mazda does everything that anything else that I have ever owned did, apart from break my heart.
The early models allow a bit of tinkering, are a bit raw and considered to be appreciating classics. No they will not accelerate like a Porsche, nor will they blow oil seals on deceleration or leave you feeling pleased to leave them and as a bonus fellow MX-5 owners are unpretentious.
Good Luck with a purchase.
