Miata Owners?

[Perfectlap]

best driver's car you can buy for the money. No oil leaks or costly rebuilds, bullet proof engine, you can use all the power all the time.

I bought one of the first 1990's to hit South Florida and owned it for 4 years. One of the best cars I have owned. Not a single problem and a blast to drive. Enjoy it.

owned a few miatas. raced spec miata for 9 years. great cars, near bullet proof and easy to work on. it looks like you have a good one with extra goodies.

as for resources, i suggest checking out flying' miata for parts and info. keith tanner has some books worth looking at, also, read the spec miata website to learn the latest cheaters tricks and go fast secrets. there's nothing about a miata that the spec miata crowd hasn't fiddled with in one way or another.

miatas can be made into a reliable and fast enough track day weapon. power is hard to come by in the stock motor but the speed comes mostly from making the suspension and tires work. taking weight out wakes up everything about the car. converting to manual steering or better yet, looping your power steering and talking out the bits saves weight and improves feel.

also, if you find a hardtop, buy it. makes the car stiffer and better for serious drives.

i love my boxster s, but a well-put together miata is always a fun drive.
