2 very different cars though. the miata will outperform the 944 in every aspect. it just won't be quite as practical. it really depends on what you want.

there are so many stupid simple and cheap ways to make more power in miatas its crazy. from ecotec swaps, turbos and superchargers, k swap, LS swap, even ITBs/cams/all motor builds on a 1.8vvt motor makes very healthy power.
if the problem with the miata is power, thats literally the easiest problem to solve with that car.
its probably one of the most modded cars in the world. makes it stupid cheap and easy to do whatever you want with them. want to rally a miata? you can, and you can mostly buy the parts off the shelf. want to road race a miata? you can, with all parts off the shelf. want to ice race a miata? you can, with off the shelf parts. want to autcorss a miata? easiest thing in the world.
a 944 is categorically more expensive and far more custom parts in order to do any of these things.
