The only reason a Miata can "hold it's own" is because of how light it is. If it weighed anymore, the suspension setup would be horribly noticeable.
It took 4 chassis bars and some nice coilovers to get the car where I wanted it.

This was my main reasoning for picking up a late model Nismo. I found I needed mods (rubber, suspension, and boost) to enjoy my MX5. Stock just wasn't going to do. Rather than get a second MX5 that would need all the same stuff again, I just opted for a ready-to-go sports car that already has all of that situated. Modding is cool, but has a lot of inherent inconveniences associated with it. I'm not escaping it, but limiting it only to one car.
