Frs or nd miata Options

[Jmk91]

I'm looking for a non bias opinion on what car I should choose... I'll be buying one within the next year. Fixing a few hick ups on my credit currently I'm not paying 12% Apr... so if you had to choose what one would it be? The frs isn't really even a Toyota it's a subie so junk paint and the fa20 had a bunch of issues with first year models 2013s. Mazda on the other hand always failed the first time with the new model miata.. na the 1.6 sucked and no torsen. First 2 years of the nb had engine issues. The first 3 years of the nc had junk suspension (soft) and weak internals that where later replaced with forged. I think the miata will hold its value much better and probably better quality... but the frs has much more sex appeal. Both are in same price range. .. the miata is faster but has a 13:1 compression... the frs engines bend rods(often reported kinda a ticking time bomb once you add boost but that's almost any car) after 250whp. My goal is roughly 250whp maybe 275 tops. So if you had to choose what one and explain why.

If it were me and it had to be a brand new car due to financing and interest rates etc... I'd take a look at the EcoBoost Mustang along with the comparable Camaro. You'd pretty much have your desired power out of the box so you don't void any warranties, they're very capable handlers these days, and they're actually useful as a car. If a few years used is an option you could look into cars like the Genesis Coupe, 370Z, and G37 Coupe. If you're dead set on the FR-S or Miata I'd go with the Miata.
