Heeeyyy, nice ride VLJ! 
As LongRanger said, I bought the sibling Fiat 124 Spider last summer. Both built on the same production line in Hiroshima with different body panels, drive trains, and certain suspension parts. No doubt about it, Mazda has the chassis dialed in to perfection.
Really hard to beat top-down motoring. It's kinda the same, kinda not the same as riding. I have to admit I like not wearing a helmet if the goal is to get some sun and wind on your face.
If your car has LED headlights paired with yellow-ish incandescent fog lamps, I found an inexpensive plug-n-play solution to upgrade the fog lights to LED so the color matches the white of the headlights....PM if interested. Speaking of lighting, I leave my headlights on at all times. It's amazing how many people do not see these cars...it's almost as bad as a motorcycle.
It's not a car culture around here, so I feel like most people ignore me in the 124. I've had maybe two people at gas stations say something.
On the pinky-waving thing: I have a feeling that's [url=https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pinky%20wave]not a friendly compliment but an impudent gesture from the teeny-bopper.
