  • Mazda MX-5 Miata

At the entry level, the Mazda MX-5 Miata is one of the most popular and affordable production racing cars around. It is also light on consumables such as fuel, brakes and tires. Now in its fourth generation ND format, which won the World Car of the Year award when brought out in 2016, the first-generation NA Miata was launched in 1989 and is still a popular racecar.

Since 2011, the Miata has been the top-selling two-seater convertible sports car in the world. With its introduction in 2005, the US version of the third-generation NC has a 2.0-liter (120 cu.in.) engine producing 170bhp (130kW), with a choice of five speed manual gearbox or a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox. The Miata is known more for its ability to drift than its speed, and it has a reputation as a fun car to race.

  • Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ

In a similar performance range, but with a higher price tag, comes the choice between the twin models of a Toyota 86 or Subaru BRZ (Box-engine, Rear-wheel drive, Zenith). These were developed jointly by Toyota and Subaru but manufactured solely by Subaru.

In the US and Canada, the car was released in 2013 as the Scion FR-S, but was also renamed the Toyota 86 (derived from the engine model) from August 2016. Its 2.0 liter 200bhp (149kW) engine gives it a top speed of 145mph (233km/h), but its low-slung box engine, six-speed transmission, front struts and rear double-wishbone suspension, and 17 inch rims, give it a low center of gravity that helps it hug the road when cornering.
