A buyer's checks

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 11 owner complaints on file, mostly about visibility/wiper, steering and air bags. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

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.

At 8.0 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 24 litres of fuel. In money, 1,000 km costs about $140 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who the MX-5 suits

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move.

Inside and out

As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Try the MX-5 on your commute, then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Which one to look for

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Compare the GT with the other trims of the same year before you decide. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
