    Interesting article. Mazda MX-5 RF wins, based on the characteristics I value.

    The appearance of the RF grows on you. It's a good-looking car, but held back somewhat by the drab color choices that Mazda hampers every Miata built since 2010 with. 2010 was the last year for Competition Yellow, the last real color that Mazda used. Well, I take that back, partly. True Red is a real color too. Hopefully someday Mazda will add other exciting colors besides red.

    How do they not mention the fact that the Toyota is carrying around an extra 500 lbs of fat? Look at the comparison table. They mention power but not weight. This isn't rocket surgery!

    Want a cool color? Buy a white or black version and have it sprayed to the jambs, but skip the underhood and trunk.
