No AutoX in the back yard unfortunately but I did get to run a Rally school course in Lake Butler, FL in the STi. That was a blast. To further confound, I also used to have a classic Mini. It was a riot to watch people as I pulled my 6'2" offensive lineman self out of that car. Surprisingly, the Mini had a bunch of room.
I like the low repair cost feature of the Miata since my other car now is a Dinan Stage 2 BMW 540. I've been real lucky with repairs on that car but I drive quite a bit - 36,000 miles last year - so it is nice to have the low cost alternative available.
