They are quite underated. They have their problems like any other car but for the money they are great. I prefer the older one as the suspension and handling is a little better, the TF is a little too hard for my liking but never the less still a good car. Don,t like the headlights on the TF. This is mine Its a vvc

Definitely under-rated and great VFM. A similar MX-5 was about double the price. This has got good history and service record of all those 'important' things. Low mileage,27k, great condition in and out and a late '05 model.
I prefer the TF over the F for the reasons you don't
Each to their own fella, bit boring if we all liked the same thing

I'd have had either model; case of price, miles, condition, history, etc. with these type of cars
