Would any of you own and drive a Mazda Miata?
Why or why not?
No. Its overpriced and underpowered.
It's a fat loser car. See pic

only the RF
Nah... Mazda 3 hatchback for the win. Zoom zoom with 36mph and enough interior room to haul 2 people, 2 bikes and luggage.
>>676650129
Poor man's Porsche.
I've daily driven my 1999 Miata for nearly three years now. You'll be hard pressed to find a more fun, more reliable, more modifiable car for the price. Sure, I get gay jokes from time to time, usually from rednecks packed six deep in a lifted truck, but my car doesn't define my sexuality. My girlfriend loves riding in it too, and I recently taught her to drive stick on it.
If you can get past how fucking small and inconvenient it is, and how uncomfortable it can become once you start throwing roll bars and coilovers on it (and believe me, you will), you'll have a perpetual smile on your face wherever you go. I'd be happy to answer any questions you've got if you're considering picking one up
>>676650129
Ya, not as a DD though. If you could get a decent one with a turbo and some mods it would be a sweet buy.
>>676650129
A whopping 155 Horses under the hood, what a joke. I'd rather drive a Solstice or Sky.
No because I drive this
>Tempted to put a 1.6 in her.
>>676650129
I would if I wasn't 6'4". too small
>Yes
Wanted something a bit more refined but similar to replace my 85 FB RX-7. It's fun, but I do miss the wankel.
>>676650129
I'm 6'4'' and had to take a 2hr drive in one. My head was above the windscreen.
It rained on the way back so I had to bend over the whole time because the top was up. Stupid fucking car.

>FWD shill
enjoy your cuck lifestyle
>>676651378
How much pussy does it get you?
No because it's for queers and women.
>>676650398
yikes, someone dosent know what a track car is
>>676652508
turbo or engine swap it. or both
>>676653155
>Miata
>Track car
Hah, right. Its a DD, not a track car, go back to /o/
>>676652810
Shit, I'm 6'4" and I've always wanted a 90's miata
>>676651076
>Zoom zoom with 36mph
Oh, wow, a whole 36mph? You dare devil, you.
>>676653081
More than I can handle to be honest. Since I'm lowered, all the neighborhood cats have their way with my hood and trunk every evening.
All joking aside, women that fuck you because of your car are shallow whores. Cars don't attract girls, the confident guy in the car does.
i don't had driven the maita mx-5,but is My second favorite car of mazda,The first is the RX-8
>>676653524
You'll hate it. Then again, your proportions might help. Depending on your leg/torso ratio, there might be a chance that it'll work. Probably not though.
Nope.
Because I have been spoiled by my Nazi mobile.
>>676653412
literally run a search for "most raced car in the world" and get back to me
you could get something better for less money
>>676650129
Looks like a fun little car, but I already own a Ford pickup and a Honda, and I'm happy with them.
>>676654072
>pic not related
>>676650129
>only a NA or NB.
>only manual
>only with hard top
Sure, if it had a better engine swapped in
>>676653842
If someone made me choose between a miata or your car, I'd probably choose your car but it would be a close, close call. I fucking hate bmws
>>676653990
Yeah, after you improve it.
>>676654385
>moving the goalposts
>>676653412
>>676653990
That doesn't mean shit.
"In a world that needs affordable easy-to-run racers, the Miata remains an essential part of the competition ecosystem."
So poorfags use them and call themselves racers? Quantity != Quality.
>>676650398

>>676650129
No, it's a death trap anywhere other than suburban streets
>>676654381
You can't be serious. Not even being biased.

>>676650398
It's accels in handling though, and chances are you aren't going to be going very fast anyway
>>676654605
>"It's a DD, not a track car"
>hundreds of thousands of miatas raced competitively against each other on tracks around the world every single day are not track cars
You're not the brightest, are you?
>>676650129
Would and do.
>>676654736
Why can't I be serious?
>>676653264
Would love to do a 13b swap, maybe even a 20b if I'm ever rolling in dosh.
>tfw no braps
>>676654729
aftermarket roll cages are cheap
>>676654971
Oh, you mean modified Miatas? Sure, that happens. So lets buy a stock Miata from the factory and act like its a track car.
>>676655015
How can you prefer any Mazda over the S54?
Mine is more of a gokart than that. Over 340 horsies too. Miata/b/ros don't know what a fun driving car is.
>>676655027
id like to 2jz swap one
>>676651378
This guy.
I own a 1999
Raceland coil overs, gates racing belts, obx headers, amsoil as all my fluids.
You really do just love driving the Miata. Those guys in the trucks don't look too happy in my rear view mirror.
