I have this mid-40sh buddy who has been talking about buying a Mazda Miata for a couple years now . He finally went to the dealership and took one for a test drive . He is 6ft tall , 220 pounds and I can only imagine that he looked like Mr. Potato Head while driving this little car . He already gets teased for being a geek ( he runs our tech support at work ) , I can only surmise that he'll get a bashing for driving this girly car .
Help me convince him that this is going to be a 26 , 000 dollar mistake . Maybe he will listen to some alternative car ideas in the same price range .
