I get to drive my parent's miata when I visit Lexington.
miata + country roads * good weather = epic win.

My mom's is a '97 miata w/ less than 50k miles (maybe closer to 40k). The exterior needs some TLC (as well as a nice body kit

Mine has scratches and dents here and there, but from 20 feet, it looks fine. The material that connects the roof to the middle interior support has come unglued recently. This may or may not have anything to do with opening the top at greater than 10mph...

You watch out, boy. When you least expect it, you'll be surrounded by a heard of Miatas. Although they're about as threatening as tic-tacs

we went from "Subaru 4 door coupe?" to "Miata's are great!" in 2 pages.
that's about normal for us.
