The "you need a Miata" thread

**weezintrumpeteer** · 09-05-2011 09:32 PM

I just spent an hour going through the "you need an E30" thread (which is awesome by the way) and decided we need to have one for the other TCL darling, the Miata.

Will you play along?

I'll start...

I like the Miata. I don't care how gay it makes you look.

okay fine, I'd never own one.

**weezintrumpeteer** · 09-05-2011 10:22 PM

DAMN, this one is nice:

I've got a 2011 Sport 5MT w/ Conv pack black/ black on hold right now... I cannot make up my mind if I actually want one. I do, but I am trying to talk myself out of it.

You guys know these aren't sports car, right? (joke from another thread)

I have Miatas! And I abuse them all

SCCA Solo National Championships last week

Our ying-yang twins, white '90 and green '93

Full tonneau cover on my '99

Need more garage space for all the toys

I have a Miata. So for me this is more of a "you need these parts" thread.

**Zdriver** · 09-06-2011 05:32 PM

Damn, I needed one before you started this

slight raise...

and then raised up more with some proper tires

because of this

Here's the NA he used to have:

a couple shots of my Miata...stock except for my wheels and tires for autocross. I don't have any pics of it with the R lip yet...

one from the last autocross I went to

Spec Miata I saw at Lime Rock Park. Check out the intake cooling.

I saw it on Craigslist a while back. For the price he was asking it seemed like a steal to me. Did he get rid of it?

Also how'd you get on Laguna Seca to take pics? I thought they only allowed the public on during Trackdays.

**MrMook** · 09-06-2011 08:15 PM

We all need to buy Miatas so these folks can't buy them anymore:

Can't get rid of our plate, we're close enough to the back of the pack that it's still a real possibility that we'll be DFL next time we run.

The plate in question:

**Pf3il** · 09-06-2011 09:02 PM

one crappy pic of mine. mild STS prep at this point, plan to do more work over the winter and go hard next season. evolution school this saturday, i hope the weather holds out!

if you've never had the pleasure of driving one, try to get some seat time. such an awesome and rewarding car to drive.
