Seriously though, if you can't get snow tires, put some weight in the truck. Weight in truck+snow tires makes the Miata a surprisingly nimble snowmobile.
Pros: nimble snowmobile
Vehicle:
Mazda
Ive got a cx50, live in Tahoe where it snows plenty, and with all weather tires, this thing is a beast.
Pros: this thing is a beast
Vehicle:
Mazda
I got a Mazda 2 with good winter tires , I'm in Calgary. It costs me almost nothing on gas, and I finish the week with way more money in my pocket. in my 40 years of life I've learned a FWD car with decent rubber will handle winter good as any suv.
Pros: good rubber, handles winter
Vehicle:
Mazda 2
I commuted 100 miles a day in my CX5 in snowy Maine. I had a 6speed manual transmission and snow tires and never had a problem.
Pros: no problems in snow
Vehicle:
Mazda
I also swapped the stock tires for A/T tires, mostly for the looks, but they actually helped in sand and rough surfaces.
Pros: helped in sand
Vehicle:
Mazda
I recently bought a ‘16 with 6,500 miles. Most everything checked out but the tires were original and dry rotted to hell.
Cons: tires were dry rotted
Vehicle:
Porsche
Mileage: 6500 km
I own a 991.2 GT3 and its a terrible daily. No lane keep or radar cruise. No parking sensors. No keyless entry. Fixed carbon buckets. No heated steering wheel. Loud tire noise. etc.
Cons: loud tire noise, no sensors
Vehicle:

Had an alignment done at a Porsche dealer here in TX, gave them a printout of the specs a shop in CA had aligned it to. Come to find out they were way off and I ended up destroying the inside edge of my front track tires.
Cons: destroyed inside tire edge
Vehicle:
Porsche
I've noticed that tires go fairly quick on my Mazda3
Cons: wear quickly
Vehicle:

I club race an NA Miata and I'm $40k in before you count recurring costs like tires, fuel, entry fees, etc. Its an expensive sport!
Cons: very expensive
