I have owned two Miata's. Both were 1999's. The last one was my daily driver for 6 years. Never a bit of problem with either of them. I replaced it with a Scion FRS for my DD. My friend has owned 5 Miatas. He drives 275 miles a day. He buys them used, puts about 200k on them and then sells them and never does anything to them expect change the oil and has never even broken a timing belt. They are bullet proof and cheap to own. The Boxster is much more comfortable to sit in. The Miata I had was loaded with options so they were pretty much comparable in that department. I love mid engine cars so I don't think you can really compare the handling either. Power wise you are comparing a car with 100+ hp to a car with 200+hp although the Miata was pretty light weightwise. I think that comparing them is apples to oranges. Your new car is beautiful and I love the color combination.
