Would like to find a dealer in
Greater Orlando, Fl. who is easy to deal with. Anyone have a good answer? What can I expect to pay? Are there "any Discounts out there" that you can tell me about? Should I look for a "New" 2005 over a new 2006?
I have heard the 2005 can use Regular Gasoline but the 2006 requires High Test. True?

Something to keep in mind....
 
The '06 is a completely different car from the '05..
 
Go drive both of them.. and decide which one if for you.. A good deal on a car you aren't happy with is not a good deal..

If I were to find a new 05 do you believe it might be a better car to begin with?

Like kyfdx said, drive them both. However, fwiw, I've done so and bought the 06: it's bigger and has more power. The exterior styling is also improved, imo, and the interior is a little more dressed up. The power increase is significant and so is the interior space. I'm 6-3, 195#, and can drive it for several hours comfortably, something I don't believe possible in the older model. It's primarily my wife's car--my usual ride is a BMW E39 530, so that's my standard of comparison for space and comfort.

good deal (?) by alabamgirl

I have been looking at the 06 Sport model. The dealer is offering the following:
 
lease: 36/mo 15K $449-$469 month residual 60% MF 2.4
purchase: 60 months $525-$550 month 6% loan
 
Both are $500 down, no trade in talked about yet. I feel we can do better as negotiating progresses as they have several Miatas in stock. Does this sound like I am off to a good start? Thanks.

Probably not. Monthly payments of $525-550 at 6% indicates a purchase price between $27,650 and $29,000. You don't say what options you're considering nor the amount of your state sales tax, but the MSRP (and Edmund's True Market Value) for a base Sport model is $23,495 (plus sales tax). I think you'd be hard pressed to get that price up to $28,000 even fully loaded.
 
You're going about the negotiation wrong. Don't negotiate monthly payment. Negotiate price. Once that's settled, see who has the best financing or lease deal.
