I bought one 6 months ago, trading in a 04 Mazdaspeed Miata, and was totally amazed and thrilled at the upgrade. It is THE most fun car ever. I was so pleased that I bought a duplicate (except that this one has a hardtop as it lives in the midwest). Go for it. You only live once. Buy the 07 GT Miata.

Buying a ~2 year old car always strikes me as a better bet - as it's not old enough that things could have started to wear out, it's often still under manufacturers warranties, and it's far cheaper. The only bummer is that you miss out on those new features the new cars always seem to have - but you probably won't miss them. Besides, there's quite a high chance of you crashing your first car (i suspect), so it's probably not a good idea to sink too much money into it. :-) I don’t know what the car market in the US is like, but ‘over here’ (UK), I wouldn’t buy a new car, solely for the fact that they depreciate so much in the first few years.
