Mazda MX-5 Miata
|
| Convertible, Entry Level
MX-5 Miata
|
| With the lowest depreciation of any convertible, the MX-5 Miata was able to show that a fun ride and sporty look aren’t all that it has going for it. For the second year in a row, the MX-5 Miata earned Vincentric’s Best Value in America™ award. The Camry Solara and Volkswagen New Beetle showed strengths as well, but regardless of whether it was judged using low annual mileage, high annual mileage, or something in between, the Miata is still the champ. |
