Overview
Pretty much every manufacturer builds a convertible and it was the MX-5 that got us all back into drop-tops in the first place. With rear-wheel drive and sharp, responsive handling, it’s fun to drive although it’s not hugely powerful. Being a Mazda, it’s also superbly reliable and well-engineered. If you’re after a fun car then make sure you stick this on your list of possibilities.
