I had one for six years and traded it in because: in a world full of monster SUVs I started getting concerned when my wife was tootling around in it; it's a sports car (duh) so it's noisy and the ride is rough; it's a convertible (duh) and I wasn't putting the top down anymore and therefore wasn't getting any tradeoff for the noise it makes. I don't think I'd be comfy driving in a climate with a lot of rain and snow, either.
And to some it's underpowered. However, the general rule of thumb is that it's more fun to have to make some effort to drive fast and well, and it's more rewarding, and the Miata definitely qualifies on those counts.
