Other than that, a great car. I had one that I sold to get a Suburban (A6's don't tow Miata's on car trailers well) and I miss the car alot.

I can speak for the 2.8 Avant - I've had 2 - another green avant 2008-05-09 12:27:17 (138 views)

3.0 if properly serviced. - schnellmb 2008-05-09 09:32:49 (85 views)

I'd stay away frrom the 3.0 - 4Driver4 2008-05-09 08:34:28 (146 views)

The 3.0 also doesn't leak as much as the 2.8, and is much faster (as snails go) :) - Raoul 2008-05-09 09:07:53 (65 views)

I have the 3.0 and its great imho. If you want a v6 without the issue of turbos its the way to go. - blAck6 (desairs) 2008-05-09 10:20:49 (52 views)

2nd: 3.0L @ 50k miles and no issues (knock on wood). Still wish I had 2.7T 6MT - NoProblem 2008-05-09 10:32:15 (47 views)

Glad to hear you guys are happy with your cars, but 50k trouble free miles... - 4Driver4 2008-05-09 11:32:55 (77 views)

2nd - our first one did that - no signs of it on the 2nd. - another green avant 2008-05-10 13:53:45 (27 views)

I'm pretty happy w/ my 2.8 engine, however don't have the avant yo're asking about. - Whitjr 2008-05-09 08:17:17 (78 views)
