On a road with curves it will smack down some of the cars you probably think are fast.

I'm starting to look forward to it also. I don't hate the NC, I think it's a better car but not as good of a Miata. I'm hoping they go back to the NA/NB kind of car.

I can't remember who has what.


I have mice in my miata. Dog was going nuts out in the shop smelling around the front bumper. I opened the hood and looked down to see two black eyes looking right in my face. Going out there now to put down some traps under the hood and all over the shop. Little fuckers will eat up my car and all the interior parts I've got cover up out there.

If you don't give a fuck, then there are no cons. Because the people that laugh aren't worth associating with in the first place.

Miata comes from an old samurai dialect. The literal translation is "sassy feminine racecar".

What does Miata even mean?
You can find all kinds of answers for that one. I think it means "huge ass balls."

Huge ass-balls? That sounds like a Miata driver pasttime.

I'm more into the shaft myself. Having big balls hit you is nice but I'm more into full penetration.

On a side note I'm so fucking drunk this is hard to do. I've had two bottles of wine and 3 glassed of gentleman Jack. And the spell check on my computer is working overtime.

Probably 20 years ago a car full of people pulled up to me downtown and a hot girl asked if  I was gay because "only gay guys would drive a miata." I could hear all of her friends laughing behind her including the guys who put her up to it. I told her " I was thinking about trying to fuck a hot girl to see if I would like it. Do you actually  have any hot girls in the car that would like a go seeing that you're the DUFF?" I could hear the guys in the car say "damn" as the girl that was put up to harassing me made a face as I pulled off.

I'm finding now that it's getting older people seem to complement it more then in the past. I hear "nice car" all the time. The one that really gets me is "what kind of car is that?"

People progressively become less "cool" as they age, it's understandable why you would get comments like that.
