It wasn't until I found this forum and started reading that I realized just how lucky I had been.
How could you not consult your wife first before buying?

I bought a 99 Miata without consulting my wife. She just about killed me for not keeping her in the loop. Plus it had no air cond. and no heated seats.

4 years later I consulted her and addressed the problem by buying my 2001 Box base with heated seats and air cond.! Problem solved(for now).
Cheers, G
