I get the fun factor of golf carts but when I've driven them, they remind me of a homemade go-kart I had as a kid except they handle worse but stop better. Both provided a heavy dose of exhaust fumes.

Over 2,000 miles/year on the cart (actually growing) and never touched a golf club.
- Cheaper to operate (50mpg for gas, about $0.01/mile for electric)
- Easier to park (four carts to one parking spot vice one car per parking spot)
- Cheaper to insure
For me, the cart is more fun for short trips and a larger car is more comfortable for longer trips. The Miata would be a toy but not very practical.
