The soft top vs RF debate will rage on forever, but for my money, it's the soft top all the way. The RF does look a bit more exotic, is quieter with top closed and offers more security against break-in, but that's about it. The soft top has many more advantages... it's 100+ lbs lighter, simple/fast top operation, far less top open wind noise, it's a true open air roadster, far better visibility, less expensive, etc. In my opinion, the soft top Miata is exactly what a pure roadster should be, but fortunately we have both to choose from...to each their own! I owned a ND2 GT manual soft top for a couple years and I absolutely loved that car. Planning to buy the same model ND3 within the next couple years before the hybrid NE comes out.
Thanks so much for doing this comparison! I’ve been waffling back and forth about soft top vs. RF, so this was great to see. I’m a Mazda lover, and I think I need the RF as my next car. Zoom zoom!

Thanks for the video, only a handful of back to back comparisons out there. Thats interesting to note the difference in brake feel, not many people touch on that. I do wish the RF Club, already being the most expensive Miata, had some of the GT features, I'm curious how well the adaptive headlights work on the GT. The wind buffeting does concern me but these days I wear musician style ear plugs when the windows are down on the highway on my normal car so that's my plan. Waiting on a red RF Club like the one featured here. I got sucked in by the RF's lines and really wanted the Recaro's and BBS's.
Loved this review, great video.

The club looked like it was a little rough on the highway - it seemed like it was bouncing around a little more. Did you notice a difference? Anyway, when I sold my Lotus Elise about 14 years ago I swore I would get a Miata someday and enjoy a true convertible (as opposed to a Targa). Long story short - my RF Club should be delivered in the next couple weeks. I couldn't resist that side profile after all - it's a beautiful car.

Club and GT have same suspension. The BBR package could be causing the difference. The wheels are very light fully forged and of course the brakes and seats are amazing. On the GT, the one feature I like isnthe metal bezels for the AC, volume knob on the console. Its about 350 shipped to buy it from online dealers.
Awesome comparison, Que. Like others have mentioned, the BBS wheels definitely help balance out the weight difference of the RF vs the ST. RFs also have stiffer rear suspension to counter the extra weight of the fastback, so that's something to consider as well. One thing I recently discovered about the soft tops, though, is that all GT SOFT TOPS have an extra layer of material that helps with road noise. All COLORED soft tops, regardless of trim, also have this extra layer. Another way of saying this is that all black soft tops DO NOT have this layer, unless it is a GT top. Regarding the Miata slander... it's a tiny car, we all know this. What do we say about people who drive a big car/truck? Put that down, flip it, and reverse it - and now you know why they hate.

When I bought my first Miata back in 2020 I went in expecting to like the RF more, but I actually found I preferred the soft top. I ended up ordering a Club soft top with the BBR package. When I placed an order for a 2024 back at the end of January I went with the same thing - a Club soft top with the BBR package. In fact, other than color, it is the exact same trim and options as what I had previously. There have been a number of upgrades to the platform since I had my car though (KPP in 2022, and the revised steering, differential, headunit, and lighting in the 2024). It should hopefully be at the dealer next week some time, which is just in time for the driving season where I am.

I hired the soft top and the RF, as I was swaying between the two. Originally my desire was to have a stick shift soft top, but life had other plans for me as the RF automatic was the first to appear on my wish list. I had the RF AT experience for 10 days, 10 days of finding any excuse to drive it, morning, midday and night time cruise drives made my days even more intoxicating, the sport button and targa like iconic😂 style hit the sweet-spot. I hired the soft top for just one singular day and that was enough. The soft top was drifting when I drove over 80km, it didn’t grip the road firmly like the RF does! I had to concentrate fully on just keeping it steady when I was in the fast lane. The RF has less roll, it’s a much more defined drive than the soft top. I live in baking hot sunshine most days so I appreciated the RF, when I felt the need for fresh air I retracted the roof, too hot? I closed the roof and put on the air conditioning. I ordered the RF automatic in machine grey in January, it’s due to arrive in the next few weeks. My model was built to order, I’ll be flying over to Gran Canaria to pick her up when she gets here, bringing her over on the ferry. Until the dealership opens on our island I’ll be taking the Miata over to Gran Canaria on the ferry for oil changes and the regular check ups,should be fun hitting the city and freeways over there in the Miata. I’m 58 this month , I choose to have a fun quality experience when I’m driving. If undecided between the soft top and RF, drive them, then you’ll get your answer of which one is best for you.

The dealer i talked to said that Mazda is saying 75% of MX5 sales are RF, which kinda surprised me. The BBR package is really nice, but for $4800, I can put wheels and brakes on that i actually want. Still want the seats but eh

The RF only has the additional storage cubby behind the passenger seat. It's smaller (shallower) than the behind the seat storage in the soft top. The RF ABSOLUTELY feels more rigid and solid than the soft top. Because of the additional structural rigidity, the RF is more tail happy. I can get the rear end to step out much more readily than in the ST. The RF handles better/sharper. I have the ND2 RF Club while my friend has a ND2 ST Club and we drove each other's Miatas back to back. IMO, the RF is alot more quiet than the ST in stock form. I added some butyl mat and closed cell foam in the roof, doors, under the hood and in the wheel wells and it enhances the feel of the RF by making it feel even more solid and premium. With the top down, the RF is definitely louder than the ST due to the wind buffeting. I have no regrets choosing the RF over the ST. Enjoy your ND3!

Different options for different folks but ST Club with BBR for me. Its what I ordered last week RF good for those who like the coupe look and a bit more quiet. ST is more open, lighter and feels tighter/stiffer. If you want to race ST only option due to roll bar compatability.

To put it out simply the club trim especially with the BBS package is for hard driver enthusiasts who's naturally a daredevil type of person all while the GT is the luxury type whom seek extra comfort and surrounding safety features. My pick personally would be the club trim and if i do got modification kit in mind i wouldn't want the BBS package with it as it could be expensive and install something that'll work for me.

I would want all of the options personally but they don’t sell that here. It would cost a fortune.
Yes, Miatas are not practical cars, but they sure are fun cars. Very much like owning a sportbike type of motorcycle. No motorcycle is practical, but they sure are fun. I actually like both these models, hard and soft top. I like your tan color car with the RF recaro package club. But that's just me. Never was a fan of "arrest-me-red". I like subdued colors. If I get a 2024, it will be the 3rd MX5 I've owned in my life. I had a 95 and 01 before, both were excellent and super reliable cars. I would put the reliability right up there with a Corolla!
I get if someone need the extra security of the hardtop especially if he doesn’t have his own garage and it’s parked outside but, it’s a compromised experience. If you can, soft top is the best way.
RF looks better with the top up but top down ragtop all the way. The RF has more weight in the rear not front. Also the RF has firmer springs in back too, same with the Bilstein shocks option springs are firmer in rear. As for road noise the two biggest thing that reduce road noise is noise insulation (ie dynamat, even though I did not use that brand) in the doors/trunk/floor and under body panel/cover (ie Verus Engineering). With those two things the road noise is mostly gone, only wind noise now from the rag top and a little bit of tire noise. The Michelin PS5 is pretty quiet and comfy for a performance summer tire, perfect GT car tire.

Gotcha. Makes sense because that would be the driver seat in Japan?
We don't say Tri-state here, it's the DMV. (District-Maryland-Virginia)

Ah. I’m butchering words lately. Well what do you call the DMV there? Department of motor vehicles that is.

Damn I never was in the market for a Miata. You probably changed that lmao

Lol oops
RF looks better. And the seats are amazing in the club. I’ve owned both and definitely prefer the RF. I miss my Miata, 2nd best car I’ve owned (987.2 S number 1)

I currently own 992 4S coupe and MX-5 ND2 red with soft top, for me Miata is number one favourite car. Porsche is only interesting for high speed and swift overtaking, and also for the excitement it brings to kids etc. But I love Miata so much I intend to purchase this mild facelift ND3 just to vacum it for future when there are no more N/A engine cars.

Hard top for me
The difference in the roll ain’t cause the top. It is the difference of the bilstein shock absorbers

They both have Bilsteins. Someone said the springs on the RF is different
A looong time for the top to go down??? what are you talking about ?? It's actually one of the fastest mechanisms i've seen. ???
