If you are remotely concerned about what people think then don't get a MK3, it is girly looking. I know, I had a Solar Yellow 2001. However, if you dont care and want a great car then the spyder is an excellent choice for a car. It is unfortunate that it suffers from '"miata syndrome" in that people stay away from it because they are afraid of what people will say despite the fact its a true drivers car and racers take them seriously.
I find as I get older I care less what people think. Of course if anyone calls my MR2 "girly" I would bust out my other car, then show them girly...
