I like the Sky Redline the most of the GM lineup.

I love the Sky and the Solstice. Problem is, they have NO storage. There's a very small amount of room under the tonneau with the roof up. Zero with the roof down. Fine for an around town toy, but you can't really take it anywhere unless you're by yourself.

You’re not the first I’ve heard say that. I had a friend that was big into racing Miata’s. Was gonna trade his Miata and go for a sky and start tracking the sky. He drove it and hated it. I just always figured it was from driving his Miata that had been set up to track and prob handled better than a whole lot of vehicles, especially factory ones.

GM with a turbo would be a bit more spirited on the track compared to a NA. Miata probably has a better F-R weight ratio.

The Miata has significantly better suspension from the factory and WAY better aftermarket options for suspension.

As much hate as I give Miata’s they really are a great vehicle. Well balanced unreal handling, and honestly even noobs can get in and do decent. I have driven slightly modified ones. But would like to dive one that’s been professionally modified with the good stuff and the quarks worked out. I bet they can just be amazing.
I hate that I hate them.
