If this is a year round car - then the HT is the way to go in the Boston area.
 
If not - the inventory is up for the 06s. Double what I have seen since May. So it may be possible to pick up a GT for 23K right now. Also, the 06s have a 4-year versus the 07's 3-year warranty. Pay less - get more.
 
If I was going to spend $32K on one of these babies - I would hold out for a Mazdaspeed version. But in the meantime the ragtop GT can keep you happy until such a car exists.

The 2007 warranty also includes a 5yr-60K engine power train warranty, as opposed to 2006 of 4yr-50.

My experience trying to open the roof in a showroom for about 20 min. I am a small woman with short arms & I could not open the roof as hard as I tried. The saleswomen also had a difficult time. My arms ached & I gave up & did not buy the car. I was told that an automatic roof will be available in Nov. with a substantial increase in the price of the car. I am not sure that I will wait & see. Still looking at other cars.

Sounds like you were not getting much help. Once you release the main latch at the top of the windshield, you can almost push the roof back over the seats with one finger. Either something was wrong with this particular car or the salesperson was not sure how to work the latch.

Yeah sounds like either a defective top or an idiot salesperson.
 
The price hike on the motorized hardtop is not substantial at all. It's less than $1800.

MX-5 Power Retractable Hard Top by aviboy97

Just for some updated info on availability.
 
So far, I have been only allocated 2. I do not see this vehicle being in huge supply. More or less a nitch vehicle with low production numbers, similar to the Mazdaspeed3.

What's the word on the MS3? October? November? I really want to get rid of my 330i and a Mazdaspeed3 or Mazda MX5 RHT would make me happier than going back to VW (the only other contender at this moment).
