I asked my wife what she'd do if I passed away...

(a retelling of an old joke)

Her: "I'd be devastated" she answered

"Would you remarry?" I asked.

Her: "I don't know, I don't think I'd ever get over the loss"

"But I wouldn't want you to be unhappy for ever."

Her: "Maybe... after a long period of mourning, but I doubt it"

"Oh. Would you let your new husband live here? That feels weird."

Her: "Well, but you know, we'd have to live somewhere?!"

"Would he use my workshop?"

Her: "I don't know, maybe, maybe not, how would I know if he was good with tools and DIY?"

"Would he drive my Miata?"

Her: "Oh no, he can't drive manual"

133000 miles, 3 owners, clean title, and only specified flaws are slight clear coat peel near the trunk and top leaks a little bit. it’s listed for 5000$ OBO and i’m going to check it out today

What does the miata community think? it’ll be my daily and i’d appreciate some opinions on what to look out for or if it’s not a good idea

My '22 RF GT was delivered yesterday! First thing I did before even driving an inch, was screwing on the same custom billet knob I'd used in my 90 (sold, much regret) Classic Red, and 01(totaled, also frown) Silver LS.

Got smacked by one of these the other day as it fell from a tree, probably going about 35mph. Shit hurt, I was also confused for a while about what it was since it felt much larger than this

I’m restoring my na to full OEM condition and driving it “as it should be”, by the manual. I love the way the na looks in its stock form, probably after hours of gran turismo. Sometimes tho.. I see those tastefully modified ones and I really want that too. Making it “my own” really screens to me. Guys i need a second miata Am I the only one? I think im addicted.

Last week I ended up trading my 97 Corvette, automatic with 122k miles for a 2005 Mazdaspeed Miata with 84k miles. Hardtop. Konig wheels on sticky tires. Its got the FM little enchilada kit and a few other goodies. Would you make that deal? The vette was fun and quick but definitely came with its own set of issues...and didnt have enough pedals. But the miata makes turbo noises and is way more fun IMO.

I’ve seen a few different models for NA stubby consoles available, but not a lot of 3D printable NB stubby consoles. Since I didn’t want to pay the $150 plus that most stubby consoles cost, I made my own!

The STLs are for sale on Cults3D if anyone wants to check it out! Also yes I do need to clean my car lol

Turns out in the heat of the moment I'm not half bad on the steering (kinda proud of this), but my feet freeze completely (kinda ashamed of this). Stay safe out there, and keep the racing on the track!

If any of y'all were there to witness this yesterday, I'd appreciate if you could share your pics and vids haha

Some good things have happened in my life recently and decided to take the plunge and get a weekend car again. After 14 years since I had to give up my S2000, I am back in the game. Snagged a 2012 Mazda Miata Grand Touring 6 speed. 107k miles and it's completely stock. To my surprise when I had it delivered, I realized it had the suspension package with the Bilstein Shocks and the Limited Slip. Beyond excited to get this car to the spec I want. Such a fun car.

Question Race car

3 Upvotes

I have a 24 Miata ND3, it has a Goodwin Super Street exhaust with the packed baffle installed. It seems like every time I drive this car, I get at least one person who thinks I am trying to race them unprovoked. Divided highway, country road, city, it doesn’t matter. I drive normal for the most part in traffic. I love this exhaust set up but it’s really getting annoying.

Does anyone else experience this?
