Won't you throw just as much money into the miata? especially used, another car is just a different money pit than the one you have now. Just don't spend on the msp, refinance it if the payments are killing you, and hang in there to get the principle paid off.I_Boost said:Well I really can't afford 2 cars. I wish I could. I should have kept my P5. But woulda shoulda coulda, nothing I can do about that now.
Basically between my car and various other debt I feel like I have too much. I bet I don't have anymore than the average person. But it still makes me nervous that it's out there. There's two main reasons for me to get rid of the car.
1) My car payment is more than I'd like it to be
2) This car is an endless money pit

You can get a headlight conversion, that makes the lights only open up halfway, and instead of one bug eye, it's two smaller round lights, that actually looks very nice. And yes, the miata can look balls to the floor amazing, and on a low amount of money, can be made an amazingly fast ass car, under 20g, will make the car a full race car, with more power than you could ever shake a stick at...and thats including the price of the car, and includes engine mods, suspension and wheels, roll bar, racing seats and harnesses, and everything cool.MikeBlueP5 said:if you do get a miata get a newer one, like a 00 or so, they have the same body parts as the MSP and can be easily made to look as good as one with the body kit and suspension. The headlights look better too instead of the older bug style pop ups. But i too have thought about getting a miata in the past, its just something about a little light ass car like that, it being a convertible and having the roll bars, and all the aftermarket goodies makes it a nice car. I love mazdaspeedgirl's 10th AE miata, that blue one with the chrome wheels is sick. I would get one! And matt you know im not ***.
Bleh, I'm getting back in the hot tub. I just don't think of it as a drift car because of it's lack of horsepower in NA form. But I am quite aware of the stout nature of the BP and the handling prowess.xelderx said:All of the negative comments are obviously coming from people who have never really explored the possibilities of the platform. Modifications are plentiful, salvage parts are everywhere, the Spec Miata class is probably the most popular of all the SCCA events for amature racers. I can also promise that none of these people have driven a turbo miata (not the Mazdaspeed version...a real turbo Miata with 300hp). The BP motor is amazing and in all honesty I wish Mazda had used the BP for the 3rd gen Proteges. Heathen...you need to get out of the hottub more. The last drift competition in Charlotte was won by a Miata. A normally aspirated one at that.
Oh jesus it was a joke.hazeXban said:A Cabrio...stick with the Miata...
