My observation driving in moderate traffic on the interstate with either the miata or Malibu, you're sitting lower than minivans and Suvs (which all have tinted rear windows). If you're in the passing lane following one of them you can't see what's in front of them. So you try to keep a safe distance back but then you have an idiot behind you that wants you to speed up and close the gap. Honestly I want to pass but I don't want to get up on their bumper and be driving blind. I learned years ago especially on the highway to be looking 2-3 cars ahead. I've seen this coming years ago that the proliferation of minivans and suvs would create this problem. It's worse than ever. The sports car market isn't dead but the market for poorly packaged sports cars appears to be dead and gone. What is "poorly packaged"? Then, oh surprise, some NA old-timers reach a little deeper in their pockets and buy the Porsche.
Mazda is no longer the company that gave us the NA and the RX7 and the RX8. It is a new kind of company that makes the ND and the CX-5 Diesel and hypes them to no end in hopes that the Mazda faithful will buy the hype. I guess the fault lies with us, we've spoiled them with our unbridled 30 year long lasting enthusiasm and now they feel they can scam us. The porsche is the poorly packaged car in that scenario. You want a metallic color? Buttons on your steering wheel? Auto dimming mirror and rain sensor? The base model Cayman/Boxster do not have a lot included. 1250 destination charge ). The beauty of the Porsche model is that you can get everything you want, and don't have to get anything you don't want. Sure it will cost you, but that is the price for full customization. But to say that a NO options Boxster/Cayman is better "packaged" than a fully loaded RF is ridiculous.
20k, I sure hope my money would be getting my something other than a badge. My wife's Mazda3 hatch holds as much as these small SUVs. Our 2015 Mazda3 hatchback is 20 cubic feet seats up, 47 down. Our 2015 Toyota RAV4 is 38 cubic feet seats up, 73 down. And the one that really loses out in the "utilitarian department" to me is the CUV. They make sense for some people and who knows, there may be a time when I wind up with one, but I don't really consider them all that utilitarian. They don't have the hauling capacity of the mini-van nor do they have towing capacity of an SUV. Compared to mini-vans and SUVs, some pros for CUVs are that they are less expensive and they get better fuel economy. Negatives are that they can't haul or tow as much. For our usage (Costco/Home Depot/camping) CUVs and wagons offer the best compromise between hatchbacks and larger choices.
