Mazda says the hardtop adds about $1,800 to the MX-5 Miata’s sticker price, which means the Sport version starts at $24,945 including the $595 destination charge. Fully loaded with every option, the MX-5 Miata PRHT Grand Touring runs $32,200 – about the same as a Pontiac G6 Convertible or Volkswagen Eos. We’ll trade the rear seats in those two models for the driving joy the MX-5 Miata delivers any day of the week.
