General Fiat 124 or Mazda Mx5?

Which Is a better car? Fiat or Mazda? Ive had a mazda before. Im thinking of getting a convertible and just wondered if one was better than the other.

Basically the same car from what I remember when they were launched, i think when Top Gear reviewed it they loved the 124 but said buy an MX5 because it’s basically the same car, but cheaper

As far as I know, the ND and the 124 Spider were produced in the same factory in Japan, but had different engines. The Spider was discontinued in 2020 from what I could find.

The FIAT engine was developped by Abarth, could be fun to drive

Depends if you want to drive it or work on it
Mind you , it is possible to take that both ways as rust will probably get both of them.
I think they are both good looking cars in their own ways.
If both were perfect I would go for the Fiat for it's personality, but then I preferred old British motorbikes to Japanese.
