Remember that feeling you had when you bought your first car? It's like that again but times 100 when you're able to help your kid get their first one.
Our daughter just graduated high school with perfect grades and is off to college this September. What better way to reward the kid for killing it in life while making sure she doesn't break down in some old hooptie, than with a new Mazda?
Me getting a new toy to play with has nothing to do with it.
Anyway, Daisy and I went to Skip Barber racing school at Laguna Seca earlier in the year, and my girl seemed to have a little talent. She was the quickest girl in the class and the 2nd quickest overall around the track. The instructor told her she has "Instincts". It was definitely a proud papa moment.
The new Miata will stay mostly stock. It'll definitely get some swaybars for that infamous ND body roll, but its already got the brembo/bilstein/BBS package so the main goal is reliable fun for the kid to autocross and do some track days.
On with the stock pics!
