Got my 2004 roadster GT RS in Australia. Couldn’t be more happier. After owning the NC for ten years. It is what it is. Nothing more nothing less. So grateful to Mazda for keeping it the real roadster it was originally built for.
My press car this week is the Club trim. I’ve had a smile on my face the entire time.
2020 club owner here. Be on the lookout for your infotainment screen getting delaminated from the inside. This is due to sudden temperature change inside the cabin which in turn causes the adhesive on the inside of the screen to delaminate. If you have your AC on cold full blast on a hot sunny day and you park your car in direct sunlight which heats the infotainment screen assembly, it will happen.
It looks like a bunch of spider webs or frozen ice crystals.
I'm taking mine to the dealership in a couple of days to see if the warranty will cover it.
Adjusting for inflation, the ND3 base is slightly cheaper than the very first Miata.
Thorough review, thank you.
You have a new subscriber.
The NC hydraulic rack is better than the ND electric one (I had a 2007 NC for 14 years and upgraded to an ND2 in 2021). But it's a close run thing. The ND's is still bluddy good.
You can retro fit the reach steering column to early cars.
Thanks for adding that tip 👍
MX5 is sexy
there was also a fuel pump recall, i've had it done
Thanks for adding, where abouts in the world are you? Some recalls are region-specific, which makes trying to find them all tough so I appreciate you adding this comment 👍
@@themilesdriven i'm from belgium :) but my car is german originally
My 2022 ND2 had the issue with the roof rubbing against the roll hoop. It can be a big problem if left unaddressed because the rubbing can wear a hole into your convertible top, which is an expensive fix if you don't catch it within the warranty period, which can easily happen depending on how infrequently you put the top down. It doesn't just affect older models. It only happens if you push your seat all the way back.
Why every Miata owner out always says something about put a smile on your face. I have cx5. It doesn’t do that to my face. 😅
I own an MX-5 RF and although I love driving it, I can’t say that it always puts a smile on my face. That is just marketing talk 😄.
Good video but tough to watch all way through with just one tone of voice all the way through
First time I've had feedback like that, thanks for adding 👍
@@themilesdriven didn’t mean it in a mean way mate maybe it was just me 😊 appreciate the info in your video
No worries, I took it as constructive criticism mate, always looking to improve the videos any way I can 👍
You didn’t emphasize enough the gearbox issues, this is by far the biggest one and it affected the car throughout its development cycle including 2023 model years. It’s a huge issue with the car unfortunately, you need to be aware of the face that you might need to replace the box at some point.
Wasn’t it just concerning track driving ? Could I ask you where you got your info from ? 😊
