She loves her little car. And I don't blame her.

- Positive fun factor everytime you drive it.
- Reliable
- Top with glass window goes up in seconds (sorry Alfa, early boxter...)
- 140hp is plenty compared to a 115hp 900s
- Enough room for 2 people with camping gear to travel Ontario
- Always finishes in the top half of an auto-x day.

Granted, we don't have kids. And she has the 900s for the winter. I would be jealous if not for my Guzzi sitting next to the Miata in the garage.
As for a soul... They're like the kids that are always happy. After awhile you tend to hate them because they're always so damn happy. I know how you see it REM being an MGC owner. But for my wife it is perfect which makes me happy. And maybe she'll let me drive it once in awhile.
