I do love how Miatas with automatics are worth way less than sticks, and sell super super slowly. Makes me just kinda happy :)

Years ago I stopped at a rest area in Connecticut in the middle of a drive from NYC to Boston. Walking in, I admired a Miata with its top down and I fondly remembered the times I'd gotten to drive one and I envied the owner. As I walked past, I looked in and noticed it was an automatic. I shook my head in…

"I bet you think it needs a crank starter too, huh?"

This newfangled third pedal I've seen in a few cars seems to do good things for its drivers.

Does this count?

proper rubber

I'm sure you're fun at parties.

I had to.

You know what else is bad karma? Dumping on another dude's ride and claiming that "he's one of those guys".

BUT, its a Miata. This whole MX-5 bull shit needs to end. Cars deserve names not letters and numbers.

There's way too much going on down here. I don't like the look of this.

I learned in one of these in a bowling alley parking lot in Michigan when I was 15. It was nothing but fun. I don't recall anything difficult about it...

The man is right. The analog featherweight streetcar is the gospel of driving. If you haven't come around yet, you just need to be worked over a bit more.

Hang on, I thought the asses went on the *inside* of a Jag..

That's a lot of love and a little bad spelling.

Can we have stance fights?

I agree that automatics sell cars. But adding one as an option in this case would have been a mistake. The Viper is a Halo car. Even in prior years when they were selling more effectively, Dodge always lost money on the Viper. So they don't have much to gain besides a small increase in sales. Dodge did their research…

then your car dies, it's why we don't drive 55, cause you neva' know when a tree is gonna' go....

It's like a menu.
