1. Thanks but it was very very short lived.

2. Yes haha Leonidas indeed. My dad never paid attention to any of my previous cars but when I brought the LS400 home...he was definitely a fan. He prefers bigger cars, luxury class to be specific. I prefer sports cars. Typically the smaller variety such as Miatas and S2000s.

Cool, what Miata generation are you looking at? NA, NB, NC? The ND is coming, Mazda is collaborating with Alfa Romeo and the new one will be just labeled MX-5 (they are dropping the Miata name...which means reward in German btw just a random fact) and the other car will be the spyder. Think Scion FRS and Subaru BRZ collab...its like that.

Out of all the Miatas (I drove em all...I like the NB and not just because it was my last ride but because of the design...it was very RX-7 FD esque)
I really regret selling her:





She was a 2000 NB. I left the suspension stock. She had Kosei K1s (11 lbs) and the OEM hardtop. I didnt do much with the interior, just added a Joyfast super short shift **** (semi weighted for positive shift engagement but still light enough to feel precise) and a Broadway 360MM convex mirror.

The car handled like a gokart even on stock suspension....only 2,350 lbs curb weight and with 50/50 weight distribution....so tossable and predictable in the corners.

The motor was left stock, as for the exhaust I did a muffler delete with flat black pea shooter tip for the "stock" look. Shifting at 3K RPM she was civilized with the exhaust note but when I went WOT...she was a beast. I was surprised that she had a very deep sounding exhaust note with good burble on the low end and at idle a slight hint of Subaru boxer motor sound.
