A recent television program looked at the ten best sports cars in history and, to the surprise of many viewers, the humble Mazda Miata grabbed second place. The Miata was bested only by the legendary Porsche 911. Tony Whitney for the Vancouver Sun observes that “people who rated the vehicles showed an excellent appreciation of the fact that sports cars are all about fun and not necessarily related to pure performance or price.” Whitney further states that, “on a deserted winding road on a nice sunny day, you can have just as much fun in a sub-$30,000 sports car as you can in a $250,000 Ferrari — and not even break the speed limit.” Also on the list were such luminaries as the Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing, Ferrari Enzo and Mclaren F1.
