There is a small tray behind the rear seats, but this is only accessible with the wind blocker down, and only easy access with the top down. see full Mazda Miata MX-5 review |

The R3 Recaro seats had side bolsters that were a bit tight for us. I am below average in size as a male, and my wife is also very small and we found the bolsters cut into our hips far more than was comfortable. The seats are racing oriented only. see full Mazda RX-8 review |
