What to check on the MX-5

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 34 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and air bags; have those parts checked.

Under the hood

Its 2.0L 4-cylinder drives through a 6-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

It is rated at 7.8 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 23 litres. A 300 km weekend costs about $40.95 in energy at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Inside and out

Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.

Try before you buy

Rent the MX-5 for a week and see how it fits your life. A test week in the MX-5 tells you more than any review. Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide.

Narrowing it down

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.65 in fuel.
