My girlfriend has a Miata that I drive quite often. It certainly is a fun car to drive. Not really a fair comparison with the Z. For one thing there is a price difference. The Mazda's interior uses cheaper materials. That said, it feels much lighter and more tossable compared to the Z. Its gearbox and clutch is very forgiving and much easier to drive smoothly. The Z is definitely a more manly car, if there is such a thing. It is brutal, but in a good way. The power difference is biggest thing going for the Z
