    Who is switching to winter tires and steel wheels?

    Agreed! I just found a really good deal on a set of alloys with like new Conti VikingContacts 7 local for $350. The wheels are 5-lug so they won't fit my ND Miata so I was going to sell them and mount the tires to my OEM wheels for winter use. Then I saw that the date code is 1820. Considering...

    Japanese Mazda Dealers Fix The Miata's Lack Of Color

    If they sell quick, maybe it will get Mazda's attention and they'll consider doing some vibrant colors for the Miata. Longshot but if these dealers are willing to get the ball rolling it could become reality. I'd go green before yellow but Mazda can take my money if they bring back mariner...

    Apple CarPlay dongle question

    Apologies, wasn't aware that the 2020 GT came with the wired hub. Our 2020 was a Sport and we had to have it installed. I was thinking the wired started in 2021. Thanks!

    Apple CarPlay dongle question

    Welcome and apologies, AA = Android Auto and ACP = Apple CarPlay. Ok, so then you will not be able to use the dongle with your current CX-5. Depending on what year/trim you get for your newer CX-5, wired AA/ACP should be standard and wireless could be an option/standard. If wireless isn't, then...

    Apple CarPlay dongle question

    Seeing that you have a 2016.5 and bought the dongle, I'm guessing you are going for a wireless connection. I do have to ask if you had the USB hub upgraded as the 2016.5 CX-5s were not AA/ACP compatible from the factory. I had the dealer do this for my 2016 Miata and my wife's former 2020 CX-5...

    Just bought a new CX-70 PHEV

    Welcome @Blackout70! Your CX-70 looks great with the blacked out emblems! I used the piano black Hyperdip on the emblems of my Miata, wife's old CX-50 and her new CX-30. Have you considered dipping the wheel center caps as well? I did this on the CX-50 and CX-30 along with black lugs at my...

    What have you done to your Miata today?

    So sorry that Betty got hit by an impatient driver but good that you are ok! Sadly there are more and more out on the roads today. Everybody wants to be first. Happy that she is off to the body shop to get repaired!

    From the Sith (VW) to the Jedi (Mazda). Insights Welcome

    Welcome to 247! My suggestion is option one. And this is not biased based on me owning three Miatas in the last 10 years. ;) You do have to factor in the ownership costs of two cars but if manageable it gives you the best of both worlds. The Alltrack for when you need the extra size/room and...

    Mike's 2022 CX-9 Kuro Edition

    Well this came outta the blue! lol Congrats on your new-to-you CX-9!! I absolutely love that color combo, the red interior is gorgeous! If your wife thought it was bold on the Kuro, what would she think of it on the CX-70/90 where it carries over to the center console, dash and door cards? lol...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Congrats @BoOsTiN! Looks clean and in better shape than the few I still see on the roads here in NE PA. I still miss my P5, loved that car!

    What have you done to your Miata today?

    I'm sure he could have if he needed to. He did get the spare out of her trunk for me and said he saw the scissor jack. I'm not sure how well that would have worked up against the curb anyway? Yikes, that does make for an expensive day especially after you just picked it up from the shop.
