Why all the Miata hate?

[pluto316]

So my gf's cousin was over at her family's house (It's very odd being white and dating a cuban girl.. They spend time with each other?!) and he goes on and on about getting a new Honda. I said for that money ($5,000) you could get a turboed '93 Miata and have a pretty sweet ride. He laughed at me and said Miatas are gay and slow.


I was like, "Okay, have fun with your FF setup on an economy car."

 

[BlueWolfCry]

yeh...the hate is everywhere..even importtuner made fun of it...all we can do is buy miatas and prove them wrong

 

[808*MP5]

what else did you expect from a honda guy?

 

[pluto316]

Wait till my Mazda tri-force is complete!!

2003 MSP
1993+ RX-7
???? Miata (I am thinking any of the 1.8L engines, who knows what will come up?)

 

[Dexter]

Miatas are cool
if you dont think that you are a fool

im DownKast.

 

[mp5jeff]

they are fun to drive, i personally wouldn't buy one but id certainly take one for auto-x and such

 

[StarvingRussian]

Thats messed up. Miatas are cool. HONDUHZ MUTS GIT NAWZ AND BE FAST STREAT RASIR AN B LEIK IM TWO FAST 4 YA'LL MAN!!

 

[chino]

Only testosterone driven Fast and the Bicurious fans hate on Miatas. Anyone who has actually driven one knows the truth.

 

[Roywhitep5]

i want a miata race car

 

[VizaX]

Id take a miata over a civic, del sol, or even a crx... Im waitin to see how the Mazdaspeed Miatas stand up to em.

 

[Captain KRM P5]

all i know is that to see a yellow 90 miata with a 1.6 liter pushing 250 whp on stock pistons is enough to convince me

 

[Darin]

People are stupid. (shrug).

Civics run 16s stock..
1.6L Miatas run 16s stock...
1.8L miatas run 15s stock...

a 15 second 1/4 mile isn't 'fast' but considering other small cars in the price range, and the 'fun' factor miatas offer, there aren't too many better overall performance bargains.

And yeah...people are stupid.

 

[jflo]

yo no comprendo tambien...i just wish my dad would've let me get a loan from him so i could turbo the miata ! i would be in a different place right now...probably not even on this forum- kinda weird when u think about it...this forum is too cool and i wouldn't have met all the great people here...but yeah, i kinda want that Mazdaspeed Miata or just get a job and stick to the '91. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm MIATA...own a civic anyday

 

[Vulcanon]

the gay thing is really funny, the car was #5 for top gay cars in 2003 according to gay.com, the jetta was numero uno....of course nobody says s*** about that though

 

[chino]

top 5 gay cars

1. VW jetta

2. VW jetta

3 Ford Ranger (lesbians LOVE those things)

4 Honda Civic (just because most of the highschool ricers I see look like closet cases)

5 Toyota Camry (Cmon there EVERYWHERE gotta be some gay people rockin them)

 

[Vulcanon]

the official list was:

1. VW Jetta

2. VW Beetle

3. BMW 3 series

4. Jeep Wrangler

5. Mazda Miata

 

[chino]

Wrangler? damn Well in hindsight the name is kinda gay.


BMW 3 series? yeah the old 318i and 318ti were super gay as was any German car that someone bought just to buy but got the bad engine because it was all they could afford (MB S320 - SUPER GAY)

 

[jflo]

hahahaha...all the money was spent on anal lube

 

[Vulcanon]

I just don't see why the audi TT escapes criticizm

LMAO!!! <3 Dex

Don't forget--bottles are for babies. (evil)

Only testosterone driven Fast and the Bicurious fans hate on Miatas. Anyone who has actually driven one knows the truth.

(werd) And those who hate do so because they are little pussies who let their friends determine what is cool or not for them. Weakminded.

Civics run 16s stock..
1.6L Miatas run 16s stock...
1.8L miatas run 15s stock...

Yah, and let us not forget what happens when you throw driver ability factor in there. There was a Civic Si in San An who tried his damnest all night at the track and still ran HIGH 16s. And the regular Civic guys? high 16s to 17s.
There was even a guy in a big-bass-boomin Cavalier who kept running 18s. Did he not know how STUPID he looked blasting his boom-boom in the staging lanes?!?!?

I have determined NOT to take anything seriously from such rice boys. I just calmly tell them to bring it. And when they lose it's always one of two things: they give props and are enlightened to the miata's abilities or they get pissed off by getting beat by a girl :mad: in her girl car :mad: and leave. Either way, I'm happy.

It all comes down to respect. I give it 1st, then see if they are mature enough to give respect back. If so, great. if not, I don't wanna hang out with them anyway.

I have no qualms about front wheel drive imports. I always welcome them as what they truely are: fellow car enthusiasts. Damn what they have, because I have seen a few rice boys grown up, get good jobs and get RX-7s or Supras. They remember who was their friend.
