Agreed

A lot of people think it’s a gorgeous car. Even if you don’t, I’m genuinely confused on how you could miss the vast majority of the enthusiast crowd loving the looks of it

Posting clock has never been automatic for me in the years I’ve been here.... But it’s easy to change! Maybe it’s because I use mobile?

Subaru gets endless shit over the lack of power available. Where have you been? People have been begging for more powerful STI’s for over a decade. Every single review and individual owner mentions the lack of power in the hilariously slow feeling Crosstrek. The Brz (obviously). 4 cylinder Outbacks...

I had a picture of when I took my winter tires to get mounted. I would have had to dig to find one with track wheels. Besides which... 9/10 times I drive to events on my track rubber

They’re mounted, I just chose the first picture I could find from swapping winter tires on. 5 track wheels, tools and spares

I too would absolutely love a sloped roof, hatchback Miata. It’s easy to forget that 90% of everything referencing a Miata in any way is based out of California, where removing your top entirely is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. Sounds nice...

Yeah, if I did it again I would have stuck to stock brakes. At least until turbo. Te37v... Are those the ones with a deeper dish?

I can see it now... In 15 years the ND and Fiata hardtops will be desired all across Craigslist as the NA/NB ones are today. That thought makes me smile...

Wheels are swappable, but look a bit large on an NB and very large on an NA

I know the NA/NB aftermarket tops were notorious for terrible quality control, fitment, and overall finish. I’d be leary of going that route without a some time to test them in normal day-to-day conditions

Miatas can easily hold 4 race wheels. Source: I have one, and see tons of other owners transport wheels to and from track days. These are super tall winter tires and they’re fine, it’s even easier with low pros

Modern Volvos are around $2000 per side

I too grabbed a hellcat (challenger) off turo after testing a model X! Good god that thing was terrifying

Leave the bickering behind and join Miataturbo.net, friend.

Yep, incredibly annoying. I fixed the problem in my Miata with an Accutech oil pressure gauge in the center console wired to a remote light set directly in my line of sight that will light at a certain pressure, and start blinking at another pressure. It’s fantastic.

The original 1.6 NA 90-93 Miatas all had perfectly functional oil gauges.

Hmm. Maybe that’s why this car has such bad defrost capabilities compared to everything else I’ve owned, despite having a miniscule interior

So how does my Miata work? There’s no AC from the factory, but defrost still works fine...
