Mazda Miata

Many young car enthusiast's first car. It's a cheap sportscar from the 80s. Most buy the NA (1989-1997) only because it has pop-up headlights. The car has a weak af 1.6 Liter engine that makes not enough horsepower. It only has two seats and a trunk the size of a shot glass. Because it's so small, boomers automatically think that it's a death trap on wheels. In reality, the Mazda Miata is decently safe in all crash tests except for rollovers because it's a roadster.

"Is that a Lotus Elan?"
-"No, it's a Mazda Miata."
"Oh, so you're poor then?"
