More Miatas are raced on actual circuits in this country than any other sports car. While much of that is due to cost, the fact remains.

Bang/buck sports car par excellance.

But sure, opinions are opinions. I don't mind.

Why do you forget to include the rave reviews the miata gets for its superb door quality on this forum? You sir are a racist!

I'm planning on having the car out at the meet next weekend. The only thing that I need to do soon is fix the steering wheel; the top part has worn through in a place (don't worry -- this was deducted from the purchase price!) so it needs to be reupholstered or replaced. Thankfully I can buy a used wheel in good condition for $75.

With the old wheel I am going to cut the bottom and weld in a flat bar, so it's one of those flat-bottomed D shaped steering wheels. I'll probably have it upholstered in alcantara or something. But that will probably be a $300-500 project so it can wait.

Do you plan on modding it? When u say next weekend do you mean ffx?

Yeah, FFX.

I don't think we're going to mod it. At least not mechanically. There is a front lip and carbon fiber splitter that my gf wants to get for it, but I think that might be about it save for fixing up the steering wheel. At least that's the plan... I can't afford to mod three cars at once.

For a car its size the S has gobs of cargo space. The trunk is seriously 2-3x times bigger than the one on the Z roadster!

If my wife wants anything, she knows she wont get it from my broke a$$, so she just gets everything herself....
