Miata or Spider Abarth for only vehicle/daily driver
So some back story, Im in my early 20s making good money and I live at a beachy city where the weather is always nice and it might snow once every 3 years. Im also single-ish, no kids, living the bachelor life, so if I were ever going to buy a roadster it would be now. I dont make enough to afford two cars so this will be my daily driver.
From what I have seen and read online, a lot of people seem to enjoy driving the miata more, with the naturally aspirated engine it has a much more linear power curve and the spider is turbocharged so theres a bit of turbo lag with that. I have no doubt in my mind that driving fast, on a backroad or track, I will love both, but how about everyday driving around traffic? For those of you that have these cars, is the turbo lag really that bad in traffic? Which will I enjoy more on my drives to work and home every morning?
Styling aside (I prefer the Abarth) both are amazing looking and driving cars, but which one is a better full package? Thanks friends.
Also added question, if i were to choose between the miata GT and club the main difference is the LSD and the suspention not included in the GT, is this a huge deal breaker?
Edit: just in case it wasnt clear, i do mean the fiat 124 spider abarth
