A Miata would be a great weekend cheap fun car.

Yup. I think new leases run between $225 -350 a month depending on model. At least, they used to.

Otherwise can you find a used one to buy in your budget?
Why used? If due to being a specific car,
but out of budget when new, then again renting one here and there may be cheaper.
Renting might work. We're looking for a rear drive stick shift, so that might be tough. It would certainly be worth looking around though.
We were considering leasing a CPO for an easy process and low cost. (I believe NJ only taxes the actual lease cost.) I've sold a few cars privately and I've never really enjoyed doing it. (The pandemic doesn't make it any more appealing.)
Toyota FRS/Subaru BRZ or similar; nothing crazy
We were thinking a low mileage lease (5k/year would be plenty) would keep the depreciation low. Given the low mileage our thought was leasing new would be silly (too much depreciation/mile).
We don't have to do this at all. We figured it might be cheap amusement.
Sweet!!!!
I do not think I would would buy one anytime soon, but I have my eyes on them for years hehe
What you could do is see if you have any local dealerships that do this

Not sure if all do, I never checked into it.
Also, can do the math to see if used still works out aka 2017 for $15k-17k with 10-20% down (10% plus taxes etc)
$14k loan for 3 years should be around $400/mo
Wow. I did not know Toyota dealers rented cars. Supposedly, you can rent the 86, though I'm guessing the rate would be astronomical.
I also found one CPO lease offer on my local Lexus dealer's site. It was way too expensive but it exists.
I'll update this thread if I end up doing anything interesting. Thank you all for the ideas. I would not have thought of these.
