Mazda Miata NB
Why it qualifies

Refinement of the NA formula with more power and stiffer chassis. Mazdaspeed turbo variant adds a real power floor for the lightweight platform.

Watch out for
  • Rust (less than NA but still present)
  • VVT solenoid issues on later 1.8L
  • Mazdaspeed turbo bearing failures
