happy new Miata owner

That sounds beautiful!

I'm curious, did you consider the Mazdaspeed Turbo? Barring rebates / discounts, seems an amazing value compared to the LS, no?

Hi Chris,

Unfortunately the mazdaspeeds are selling for sticker price, and I am not prepared to pay retail for any vehicle. I got the LS for $24,000 including the $1,000 incentive and plus tax, title, freight, processing. Compared to the mazdaspeeds' sticker price of $27,000+, and doing a side by side feature comparison, I still can't justify the extra $3,000. also, i wasn't

Three thousand over?!? Everything I've read indicated that the price would only be about $900 over the LS price.

The Car & Driver article in the April issue stated that the price for the MS was $26,020, with the LS priced at $25,193. That's $827.00 more.

I think that dealer added a few extra dollars here and there....

The dealer did. Window etching, which I couldn't delete. Pin stripe (ugh) which I didn't have to take. My wife wanted leather which we got. There was a $1250 premium on the car (whatever those charges are called) but it was waived because I had bought 2 other Miatas there and was a member of the Miata club that usually meets at the dealership. So I was told anyway. Sure I wish it had cost $20,000 instead but my wife's happy and I'm going to autocross it this Saturday when we set up the course for Sunday. Yeehaw!!
