Those of us in this business have now been trying to
explain the Miata’s magic for 20 years. We use poetic
superlatives and proclamations like “thrilling!” and
“unbeatable!” and even with a heaping helping of
exclamation points we can’t always convey it’s
awesomeness. You must simply experience the pure driving
pleasure Mazda’s minimalist roadster continues to
provide two decades after its debut to understand its
enthralling charm. Our real job, then, is to keep you up
to date on the little changes Mazda makes every few
years to keep the MX-5 on top of its game. For 2009
Mazda made just enough tweaks to make a revisit
worthwhile for the AT staff.

Why Buy It:
It has the wonderfully opulent qualities of the Cadillac
Escalade -- style, power and refinement -- all with the
added benefit of Earth-friendly hybrid technology.
Why Avoid It:
It has a steep $74,000 starting price, which is about
$11,000 more than the basic Escalade.
