So help me choose a new car. After driving Miata's for
7 years now the shine is definitely off the
relationship. The only time we see each other is
Sunday's and then I despise the noisy uncomfortable
freeway ride. During the week the Miata is 5th choice
in my garage after car's and bicycle. The only fun
part of the relationship is 3 autox runs and the only
reason we're still together is that I can't convince
myself there is anything better out there.
What I'm looking for in a new partner:
1. Stock class vehicle
2. Must be RWD. Must be manual trans.
3. Must be class competitive, class is
irrelevant(SS-HS).
4. Must have good steering feel.
5. Stock class parts (shocks, bars etc readily
available)
6. Plenty of autox know-how available, i.e. other
folks should be running this car.
7. Convertible a plus, motion sickness causes me to
throw up in claustrophobic cars.
8. New or used.
9. I'd like to reduce my inventory of cars so a back
seat would be a plus, 4 doors or 2.
10.Preferably not a binary car.
What car does this sound like to you?
What am I thinking, in no order:
89 Corvette Z51(AS in 02?), 01 Z06, Gen 2 MR2, MR-S,
94-5 RX7-R2, 944-S2, E46 330i(?), E36 M3, E30 318,
S2000, Boxster, M2 Miata (don't let me do it...)
and some long shots for next year:
02 M3, 02 IS300 5spd, WRX.
