id do the club with the brembo/bbs package and basically drive it stock, maybe change tires to RE11's down the road. price is about $32K
will run my G as dd until she falls apart (another 4-5yrs?). she's at 35k miles right now so I'm thinking she isn't too old yet.
or going back to the BRZ idea... about $28K for limited, but will need mods to make it mine. will drive the G and BRZ as dd..
my requirement is light weight, RWD, MT.. |
Miata's haven't changed besides the body styles. I'd go used. A Mazda 3 would perform just as well at the Miata also. I'm personally not a fan since you really have to flog them to pick up any "fun" speeds.
Same with the BRZ. Fun cars, but why not just get a FR-S? Cheaper with 99% identical stuff throughout. You're just paying for the subbie badge.
Why not a Fiesta or Focus ST? Hell, just wait for the Focus RS. For an extra 4k, it'll kill all of your cars compared to what you'd get out of the Miata.
