It was back when people didn't know any better. Then they drove one! It's so perfectly balanced. Everything is nice and tight and you have total control, totally different from any other car I've driven. Plus the engines are pretty much boost-ready from the factory, so that's cool.

I too thought it was a girl's car a long time ago, then I realized why people loved them so much. At 6'2", I can barely fit in it, but it's just big enough! I basically just wanted it to say I've had one.
Yeah, the context is necessary in that post...
Somehow neither Miata on my driveway has any rattles (aside from an exhaust heat shield on the NA). But they're certainly fun! The NB is awesome. Definitely the best handling car I've ever driven.
My cousin, who has owned something like 13 Miatas, asked me my plans with it. I told him that's a good question... been wondering that myself. He told me I better make up my mind because if I drive it more than twice because I'll want to keep it!

And after some close to redline pulls the lifter tick it had after sitting for a month was gone
