Like the '88 Fiero GT.

I just bought my first Miata last Sat, a 2024 RF, also red, and just washed and waxed it this morning. I love it. I'm 6' tall so it's not easy to get into, but once in I'm quite comfortable with the steering wheel all the way up and back away from the seat. It handles like a dream too.

Awesome, congratulations!!

I have owned 3 manual transmission MX5’s dating back to 2016, at 71 years old, I still love to drive it aggressively and enjoy it immensely when the “backend steps out”. The Bose stereo’s are not worth much, have upgraded to a Kenwood, including speakers, much better at highway speeds with top down. Also added aftermarket heated seats for the spring and fall in Southern Ontario, enjoy your seat time, I enjoy your content🍷

I love the road trip theme. You two are such a joy to watch. I enjoy hearing your two sometimes differing opinions on your reviews.

I am from BC and just bought my Miata a week ago 😍 loving it

Awesome road trip and great views of Victoria! Please do more videos with the Miata, California Pacific Coast Highway would be beautiful too but a really long road trip!

That MX5 is gorgeous!! So glad Andrea got her favourite little car and in the Ruby color 🔥

LOL. Just seems like yesterday when Andrea was learning to drive a stick and now she’s so confident! Zack you are a lucky man to have such a beautiful, bright and positive wife, and the bonus is she can drive a stick and knows about cars! Looks like a fun day. 👍

I love this video! I'm a Canadian from Toronto who has lived in Los Angeles for the past 28 years and sometimes finds myself missing home. I remember the wonderful visits to my uncle's home in Victoria when I was a kid and the wonderful salmon fishing he would do with us on his small boat. Lastly, I just got myself a new red car in March and have been having fun with it too (not a Miata, but still fun). I guess I'm just feeling a little extra Canadian today and feeling the love for my new red car (named Lulu by the way). Thanks for all the great videos, I really appreciate watching two fellow Canadians create videos that are useful and entertaining for us to watch!

I have loved this car since the first generation and I was applying for a sales position with the local Mazda dealer in 1989. This red is the sharpest color out there. Great video. The best car review people out there. Thanks for sharing!

Whoever asks for more power for this car doesn't understand the purpose of it.

Love this episode. Mazda MX5 is a great car. We owned a 2016 and loved it. Only reason we don’t have it now is our grandkids didn’t fit! Love this format for your show. Please do more!

Great car, great couple, great scenery. What's not to love? I have been to Vancouver several times, but regretfully have not made it over to the Island. Vancouver is sooo beautiful on a sunny day. My most favourite city in Canada ♥

I love Vancouver Island, we have family there. Tofino is a magical place and would be a fun drive in that MX5.

@OMGWTFLOLSMH

The twisty road to Tofino/Ucluelet in an MX-5 would be sublime, but having owned a Miata and a BMW Z4, small roadsters are not great highway vehicles. It seems fun and romantic, but they are noisy and exhausting. JMO.

Victoria is home to my wife and I. We absolutely love living here as we get Canada’s best weather, all the amenities of a big city but still feel like we live in a small community. I don’t own a MX-5 but do own and drive it’s Italian sister a 2018 Russo (Red) Fiat 124 Spider in Lusso trim. If you researched this roadster you will see that it is a MX-5 dressed up for Italy. Very, very similar as it is 75% MX-5 and 25% Fiat. All the fun plus great handling and reliability of a Miata but with the Italian flair for styling. A great little car to tour around Vancouver Island, Lower Mainland and Puget Sound in. Very good gas mileage for a Roadster and the fun factor is through the roof. (Top down usually so no roof)

Thoroughly enjoyable ! A gorgeous car and road trip! Thank you! Enjoy more drives in the lovely Miata. Cheers, Tom

This is one of the best videos you have done. Thank you.

Lovely car, lovely trip. Thank you for doing this. Your tour of Victoria brought back fond memories.

You made me to want to travel to Vancouver and Victoria. My cousin once visited Victoria and said “Victoria is the most beautiful city in Canada”. Then I visited Vancouver and I said “Wow, if Vancouver is this beautiful… What about Victoria!!! From Ottawa, ON

Great video, great looking car! Good ol' Oak Bay...where i grew up. Beautiful place to visit this time of year.

Such a beautiful car.

One of the best summer or weekend cars on the planet. The glossy red color is beautiful, sort of like a lipstick color.

I got an ND 2022, this exact same color. Guess what? My wife called it Ruby 😊 Sorry to contradict your husband but THIS is the color to have. Cheers from a Canadian living in Luxembourg. Great channel btw 😉

This fun video brightened my day! I’m about to get on a plane for Seattle where I lived and visited Vancouver a lot and have been to Victoria. Brings back great memories and the reason why motoring can be so rewarding.

I love road trips

Thanks for another great review!! Please do more road trips and show us more scenery , it was great!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Loved this, great to see some Canadian country side watching from Australia. I watched questions coffee and cars a week ago on a flight from Sydney Australia to Darwin Australia, a 3,000 kilometre 4.5 hour flight taking us from 13 degrees (winter) to 32 degrees, beautiful beaches but sharks salt water crocodiles and deadly jellyfish so it’s the motel pool for me.😂

Welcome to the Island. I'm an Alberta transplant and have lived on the Island for 32+ years and it's a great place to own a convertible.

I live in the Seattle area and Victoria is such a beautiful place. A great place for a weekend getaway

What a beautiful 🚗 and great scenery and weather for a review 🎉

Thank you for the quick review on the Miata. Never owned one, but always has been one of my favorites cars because of how affordable and fun to drive is. People often think you need the instant torque and power of a Tesla model S Plaid or the speed of a Porsche 911 GT RS. Both beautiful cars, but you can also enjoy a car that is way more affordable and mainstream. By the way, thank you for the video, thank you for the great content, and thank you for showing around those gorgeous places. As a person living in the U.S. I appreciate you guys sharing the places where you live and visit.

I was concerned about storage in a Miata and asked a bud about that. He said that he and his wife have taken their Miata camping. That sold me.

My wife and I drove our 2022 Maita on a 5 week road-trip. Two airline carry-on bags fit perfectly in the trunk, which is deep and wide. Soft luggage and small backpacks are ideal. Almost no storage inside the car, no real glove-box, or door pockets, but the compromises are worthwhile as you take the roof off and head for the horizon.

I absolutely love mine❗️ And the video is awesome….thank you.

I had to sell my motorcycle due to some health issues. I did some searching and found a 2001 (yes, 23 years old!) MX-5 with 111,000 km on the dial in Stratford, ON. 3 prior owners, 1 of which owned it twice. I am having SO MUCH FUN. And I don't really mind the cost of the premium fuel…much😏 It’s a 6 speed manual and is a hoot to throw into the corners. Love your reviews, as always and they are as much fun as my Mazda.

Bought a ND2 soft top 6 speed as a second car 7 months ago after refusing to consider one for years. What was I thinking? I can’t stay out of it now! ✌️

Oh yes, more road trips and sight seeing please :) I've drove to Tofino and Victoria twice. Once with my wife when we lived in Alberta, and then again with our 2 kids, drove over from Ontario, then went to Seattle and Mount Rushmore on the way back. So much to see.

I LOVE Victoria been only there once but what a VIBE that city has!

I live in Alberta, I’ve decided on the RF GS-P with sports package (brembo etc) , my thoughts doing the RF, were coupe targa looks , i can enjoy the ride for more seasons if needed, snows lots here, lol. Absolutely love these videos, can’t wait for my vehicle delivery.

I loved this video, congratulations. Like I was getting on the ride with you. Beautiful car. Enjoyable scenery.

Love my nd2 in red it’s so much fun to drive in the Rockies in Utah. If you ever make it back to SLC I can suggest a bunch of drives. Alpine loop, east canyon reservoir, pine canyon in PC, mirror lake highway past Kamas, and Provo canyon.

My wife and I spent a week in Victoria for our honeymoon! Our 21st anniversary was yesterday! I'm 6'6" and want this Miata. I've owned 3 RX-7 and 2 RX-8 models. Andrea's comment gave me hope I can fit in one.

I just purchased a ND3 Miata GT manual a month ago, my 2nd Miata, and it's been an absolute joy. I totally agree that the best thing about the Miata is that it's loads of fun at any speed. It's one of very few sports cars that you don't have to break the law to fully enjoy. I plan to keep this car forever, as a weekend toy and occasional commuter, and I'm glad I got a ND3 because I think it is the best Miata ever, and it's hard to imagine the next gen getting any better or being as good a value. That said, I do wish it had auto rev matching. Not adding that feature to the ND3 manual was a huge miss on Mazda's part.

Watching your channel from NYC for years. Thank you for the road trip. I would like you to visit more beautiful places this summer!

Loved it. Need more of BC's natural beauty in your videos.

Zack buy this for her❤🎉

That island is BEAUTIFUL and everyone should visit the Gardens…and car and the gal in the red dress aren’t bad either! 😎

My exact spec, though I have a 2021. There are times when I wish for a back seat and some cargo room and I consider a GTI or a Golf R but then I know I would regret giving up the open air fun of the MX-5.

So nice thank you for sharing this! Love this spec a lot. MIAAAAAAAATA

I'm watching the new BH Cops 4 movie and reminded of the scenes of Eddie/Axel and his daughter in that red BMW convertible rolling in Beverly Hills. Awesome road trip you two!

I just bought a brand new RF GT with the Terracotta Tan Nappa Leather interior. Brembo and Bilstein shocks. This is a blast to drive and gets 6.2 litres per 100km. I do have the wireless CarPlay as well. The RF is quieter than the soft top. Great car.

The editor of this video does a great job, thank you guys for wonderful scenery❤

Agree it is incredible value for a fun little car to put around in...

I want to go back to Victoria. My wife and I took an Alaska cruise two years ago, with the final port being Victoria. We went to the Butchart Gardens and the Butterfly Gardens for our excursions. They were nice, but we never really got to experience Victoria. Our friends took a shuttle to the downtown area and went bar hopping. We should have done that instead.

Wonderful road trip and a perfect car for it👍👍

We have been to Victoria on trip from Seattle to Vancouver in winter😂. It’s cold but still enjoy the place!

The color is beautiful. I love my 1995 M-Edition!

Greetings from Gatineau Quebec. Your road trip brought back found memories. I did the Vancouver to Victoria on the ferry. It was magnificent, especially coming back to Vancouver. Breath taking scenery. In my opinion, Vancouver is in the top 5 nicest cities in the world. You guys are so lucky.

More than 30,700 Ford Mustangs are being recalled in response to a problem that could cause unintentional turning of their steering wheels. The automaker said in a June 28 recall report filed to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the Mustangs at risk of experiencing the unintentional steering wheel turning belonged to the 2022-2023 model years. The recalled vehicles were built between Sept. 15, 2022, and April 5, 2023.

It was nice chillin with the Spencers 👍 I saw a Miata with a custom emerald green paint some years ago. It suited that car perfectly.

Some quality microphones and audio editing. Nice work!

I had a 1990 and loved driving thru Victoria at night with the top down.

I'm with you, Andrea. The Mazda soul red crystal paint is awesome!

Thanks so much for this episode, I have been to Victoria 4 times and wish I could go at least 4 more. Too old now, but you did well. in the short time you had to show the most beautiful part of a beautiful small city. I have a 2018 Fiat 125 spyder and know the thrill of driving a small sports car. Indescribable, but you came very close. Thanks again for you videos.

As I fat old man I can testify that you should get the GT model with the leather seats. I tested the Club and the GT trims before I purchased. I was glad that I did.

I love Victoria and taking the Tsawassen ferry! And I just knew you two were headed to Oak Bay for a drive-it's such a lovely spot. Looks like such a fun trip in gorgeous little Ruby- don't think I could give her back at the end of summer..

Looks like a wonderful place to visit!

Beautiful car 😍

I love small, convertible roadsters. We used to have a Triumph TR-6 back in the day, and more recently a BMW Z4. Similar size and height as the MX-5. One caution however. Every time we drove it, large pick-up trucks seemed to be cutting us off. Never happened in our other "normal" sized vehicle. It slowly dawned on us that it wasn't bad pick-up drivers; it was because they didn't know we were in their blind spot, and just changed lanes. The Z4 was too small and short to be seen by higher vehicles. We made a point of never staying in other vehicles blind spots from then on. Be careful out there!

super cool 😎 ❤

Keep doing this type of videos
