Not sure why you'd expect ppl to rag on it - only an ignorant person (i.e., someone who doesn't get what a Miata is all about) and/or someone with serious insecurity would rag on it.
Like some others here, I have both; however, I
hate the body roll of the ND - and the lack of paint colors that appeal to me (such as dark blue or dark green) - so that's why I have not gotten a new one. Plus I still love my '99 (NB) which corners flat, just the way I like it. And I've never gotten tired of working its clutch after 21 years and over 136,000 miles (I hate stop & go traffic... only 'cause I hate not moving!).
Both are rwd sporting machines, so I can see how both are appealing, but since they're so different, only test drives of each will tell you which driving experience you want to prioritize.
