Yeah, but when you drive down the street, do little kids turn and look? Do people roll down their windows at stoplights and ask you what kind of car that is, or to tell you that they used to have one

I wasn't too fond of the Miata's either until I drove one. It is a true roadster, but has some creature comforts, such as legroom. Anyone over 5'8" tall would agree that the seats could be a little

AHH - the old Miata debate is started again - fun times ahead:) My Mom has Miata #0000366 from '89. When pushed hard the rear end is "twitchy" and unpredictable at the limit. Fun to scoot around town
