I think they need the G at this stage of their marriage if they're only going to have a single vehicle. If they will have w vehicles, then I'd give more weight to the 2-seater.
Don't knock the Miata. I've owned a 1st-gen and it's an awesome ride. Brilliant handling at any price-point...

In fact, I'd take a hard-top MX-5 over a Z4 for half the price!

Been done.
Bought it couple of weeks ago. But the debate between the both would help others to make a decision too.

Well..I've learned that when you are a bit chunky, the wrinkles stay away (That's my excuse, anyway.)

Heck, I'm going on 20 years of MARRIAGE. LOL! But thank you!

My other sports car is my M edition Miata I bought new in 1996 and will keep until my last day. I've put virtually every available aftermarket item on it and it is a true showpiece and future collector's car with only 35,000 mi. Although, like two of your kids, it and the Z have very different personalities, I love them both and will keep them both the rest of my years.

That's a totally sweet car. Interestingly, the other sports car I was cross-shopping against the Z was a new MX-5 Miata. I love that car - Definitely a pure driver's car in every sense of the word, despite what others may ignorantly think.

Post some pics of the Miata!
