Used Miata or BMW Roadster?
Thinking of buying a used Miata or BMW z3, both convertibles, both have good consumer ratings. Beemers are a thousand or two higher in price. I'm a 40 y/o guy, is a Miata a girls car? Would you spend the extra $2K for a used BMW z3 same year than a same year Miata?
The Z3 comes with different engines, unlike the Miata. You don't mention what engine or year you are looking at, so it is difficult to compare HP and torque numbers. However, all BMWs have 50/50 weight distribution, or very close. The Z3 is no exception, it is not nose heavy.
HP numbers range from 138 all the way to 315, and have always been higher than Miata, even with the early 4-cylinder models. Torque is significantly higher in the Z3, especially in the 6-cylinder models. Weight is about 400 pounds more than a Miata, but the Z3 is a bigger car.
Personally, I would spend the extra money to have a more unique and attractive car.
