Having had both in the family and autocrossed both, I'd have to seriously disagree.
Anyways, EPI, the Miata is a great car. At 6'2" it was a squeeze to get in at times but not overly uncomfortable. My main gripe about the car is that with the top up the blind spots are simply ridiculous. Rush hour driving in the Miata was definately not made any more enjoyable by the fact I couldn't see shit to the sides of me. As for the gay aura surrounding the car, fuck it. It never crossed my mind while I was driving it and I doubt it crossed anyone elses. It's neither a cop magnet nor a cock magnet. It's simply a fun car to scoot around town in.
