Why do guys put up with owning any number of sports cars from the 50s and
60s with their inherent problems when they could get a Miata and be trouble
free?

silly question!

One should own all of them:
1950 MGTD
1976 MGB
1978 MGB
1999 Miata (British Racing Green)
Old Hallicrafters
Old Lafeyettes
Old Nationals
