My cruise is just wrapped up in a microfiber shoprag at this time! Unlike the original Miata, however, differences are present. And the top does not take any space from the small, but functional trunk. The turbocharger is essentially a compressor that is driven by engine exhaust. I usually get about 25-26 average gas mileage and I've gotten up to 35mpg driving turnpike at 75 with the top down using cruise control. Cautious about butchering your twee little roadster in the name of F-type-baiting? I've already put 55,000 miles on this car!! Raising the roof takes the same amount of time. In-house tuning improved the power output to 249 whp. A: Think of a turbocharger as a fan that is blowing compressed air into your engine.
Styling By modern standards, the Miata is a small car, measuring just 13 feet from end to end and standing just 49 inches tall. A couple months ago I stumbled upon a good deal on a new 2010 that I couldn't pass up. Its low-slung, athletic shape is appealing, and its proportions are just right. Someone even a little bit taller might be able to, as well. Power was better than I anticipated although it could still use more oomph up top end , and the low 4. Some people might not like its happy-face grille, which is now a staple on Mazda cars, but it works better on the Miata than it does on other models. The 160bhp factory-fresh Mazda does 0-62mph in 7.
With the top up, I had a little headroom to spare, but one editor said his hair was constantly brushing against it.

Fit and finish are excellent, with easy-to-read instruments, steering wheel-mounted controls for audio and cruise control and a perfectly situated shift lever. Both the five- and six-speed manuals provide precise shifts that make quick work of gear changes. It is in the mail now. You have to manually release a lever in the center of the windshield frame to release the top, but after that you only have to press a button on the dashboard and it powers down, stowing beneath a hard tonneau cover.
The top, for example, can be operated from inside the car with just one arm and, when retracted, collapses into a small well behind the seats, as does the new available power-operated hardtop. As you might expect, the interior is short on storage. I'm running without the baffles, sounds great in power band. Temperature reductions throughout the system have also received special attention. The hardtop is also compact. The whistle of a blow off valve, the roar from an external wastegate, and the burst of power that makes your engine feel like it doubled in size, how could you resist? I bought a 2010 Grand Touring fully loaded with the retractable hardtop in January 2010. With crisp highs and a thumping bass, the Bose system can easily defeat the most deafening wind noise.

All the leather inside the car has been replaced with new, genuine material.
See a of the trims. The system includes relocating the air filter to avoid heat soak, and t-bolt hose clamps on all post-turbo tubes. Top is really impressive in that is simple, with not as many moving parts as the competition and it fits in the boot leaving trunk space. But as with most things, more is better. If you don't mind not having a backseat and you want a fun, dependable, sharp looking convertible that gets good gas mileage, this is your car!!
