looks too expensive if you also have to buy a guy to sit in your car all the time so he can open the door for you…

It is too expensive.

I can’t disagree. I can’t even see the logic behind buying a guy to sit in a car that she had to open herself.

guess they are working on the technology and its not 100%working yet so they wanted to make sure the door opened?
or the guy is just there to provide something for the female viewers? lol

The latter seems logical since he did look good sitting in that car, didn’t he.

ok this answer is for pete: not sure, i couldnt see his knees

AgeofGrace · February 9, 2020, 6:41pm

Pete? I don’t get it.

thinkingaboutit · February 9, 2020, 6:42pm

lol you dont know / remember aussie pete from the zone?

AgeofGrace · February 9, 2020, 6:43pm

Absolutely I do.

AgeofGrace · February 9, 2020, 6:43pm

It just seemed to come out of nowhere.

thinkingaboutit · February 9, 2020, 6:46pm

i used to tease pete by calling him sexyknees

AgeofGrace · February 9, 2020, 6:47pm

lol okay.

MyBigMoon · February 15, 2020, 2:11am

I want one. Usually that’s all it takes. Gonna rent one first.

MyBigMoon · February 15, 2020, 4:42am

Ok, I’ve calmed down. Now I want a Miata mx-5. A sensible car.

Reg · February 15, 2020, 4:50am

That’s way nicer. I prefer the Fiata but same car built in the same factory with different badges.

MyBigMoon · February 15, 2020, 4:52am

I was just looking at the 124. About the same price and I like the look of the Miata more. Plus don’t want a turbo engine.

Reg · February 15, 2020, 4:57am

Valid points. I like the Fiat look but I am with you on the turbo. I have a turbo in my VW and dislike it. Also the Fiat dealer network could disappear if Fiat leaves North America like people are saying. That’s not certain yet but it’s a risk.

MyBigMoon · February 15, 2020, 4:58am

Plus I don’t think the Fiat badge holds the value that Mazda does.

Reg · February 15, 2020, 5:01am

Certainly not. Resale will be far better for the Mazda, and there’s a big Miata community if you’re into gatherings and stuff. The Miata club in Vancouver is one of the few active users of CB radio there, interestingly. Either way, I love this choice. The three wheeler is a toy for a day. A convertible is a car you keep until you or it dies. I speak from experience (and I’m not the one dead yet).

MyBigMoon · February 15, 2020, 5:03am

I agree. Heat of the moment. Calmed down after a road and track article. lol . Have you driven one?
