Ten Lessons From Driving An MX-5 Across America

9. Quick Steering, All the Time

Superb in the twisting roads towards the tail of my journey, the steering can be a little too responsive on wide open, straight highway stretches.

Personally, it’s a trade-off I will gladly take as the MX-5 isn’t exactly darty on the freeway and once the road does bend, it’s all worth it.
