You won't go wrong on the Crossfire. I'm 73 and went from a Honda v-65 motorcycle to a miata . It was a fun car but didn't have any power. Sold it and bought a 07 limited 6 speed manual roadster convertible. the steering is not as precise as the miata but the crossfire surpasses the miata in everything else. ride, power, size, sound system, comfort and no rattles. the convertible is way quieter even at highway speeds, Hope this helps
