I get flack from people all the time for driving an NA Miata but it's so much fun to drive I don't even care. :fullofwin: They're all just missing out.

Next car after the E36 5.0 is going to be a Miata 5.0 FOR SURE!!!

In all seriousness
...I had an oppurtunity to ridealong in my friends miata and they are quite nice and handle very well. Top it off RWD is a sure bonus...a great learning and competitive car.

Couldn't agree more. I did a quick google search and this popped up...on point

Fuck you guys are talking about getting ragged on because you like miatas.. I've had a few people tell me that my f150 isn't manly enough and that I should have purchased an f350 instead. :fulloffuck:

In all honesty though, people in the lower mainland have become way too pretentious. Its fucking annoying.

Can recall a 97ish GQ magazine issue on my coffee table with a brand spanking new Miata inside. With all that money left over could probably sport some nice duds. If your lucky maybe the girl appreciates cars too!

mm...makes me want to pick this sucker up

Repo.com : 2006 Mazda MX-5 Miata

Do Ronal bears fit the Miata?

supafamous 03-21-2014 08:13 PM

Took the Miata out of winter storage today, put on a new exhaust and drove it like I was a hair dresser.

I am such a man.

i always felt that the miata was a womens car but with the last gen one i thought they did a very good job with the styling and actually made it look more appealing to me. much goes the same with the boxter... prosches are getting so expensive now i can understand why a guy would opt for a boxter since it is the cheapest of the range and does look pretty good nowadays.

that being said i think that men like their v8 powewr which isnt found in a lot of 2 seater verts anymore. cars like the mercedes sl's are kind of paris hilton-ish but the bmw z8 i still love and the most manly of all would be the shelby cobra 427.

my uncle buils one of these for a customer out of his shop in richmond. cept the guy swapped a stroked ford 5.4L with a 6 speed. he later supercharged it and then sold it cause it scared the shit outta him too many times. DERP:concentrate:

James Dean didn't die driving a truck. S'all I'm sayin.

I'm really craving a roadster for this summer.

Miatas are definitely very fun cars to drive. Who cares what other people think!
