I'm a 5-speed guy... that last gear is worthless, at least in the two I've owned... more shifts for the same top gear ratio... pointless.
I had a company station wagon (Taurus) and a Fiat Spider (and a couple of motorcycles)... not quite a truck size gap, but I did have more than one date checking my wagon back seat for a car seat... Not a great first date mobile... but handy when you get to know me better..

Not gonna lie, now that I am getting into autocross, I’ve certainly been considering getting one.
Running a 600+ HP Vette in Autocross is like shooting steel challenge with a .45 ACP with +P loads. Doable, but not ideal.

In 2019, people said I would hate having a Miata as a daily driver.
People were wrong.
Every boring drive to work or the store turns me into an 8 year-old with an all-day go kart pass. Putting the top down on a pretty day is an instant mood lift.
I think the key here is it is keeping it under your butt instead of under a cover. I got my modest Focus ST in 2016 and proceeded to drive the snot out of it, much of it for work. Now it has 140k on it, while I am working from home MrsMMc is driving it daily, and long ago it was paid for with mileage reimbursement.
Another friend owned a GT500 for a while, drove it occasionally, sold it.
Another close friend has a fantastic (lowered, supercharged) F-150 sitting in his garage. The next lucky bastard is going to have a blast with that truck for pennies on the dollar.
