Pulled into my parking spot at work this morning as my 2002 Mazda Miata's odometer "rolled over" to 80,000 miles. I bought the car in April 2012 with 41,200 miles on it, which means I've put more miles on it than either of the two previous owners individually. I think this makes the car really "mine" now. I've almost doubled the mileage since I bought it.

Gonna try to get another photo of the odometer in 85 miles ;)

I put my Miata into storage for the winter about a month ago. My 323 GTX's ignition switch locked up on me Monday night, so it's in the shop getting a new one. Meanwhile, the Miata is back on the road. Luckily, Denver weather lately has been unusually warm and snow-free (which is good, because it's on summer tires!).

Thanks! Our Miatas look to be pretty similar!

Yes i have an 03 ls. Tan top and interior. My winter car is my newly purchased 98 Eagle Talon TSI AWD.

I have driven my Miata in one or two Michigan snows and it was fun. LSD really helps getting up small hills as well

my 94 base Miata has 250,000 on it and I whip that bitch like a red headed step child everyday. I'll get one of those garage queen NAs when this one bites the big one. When it turned 100,000 I put a pic of the speedo at 100mph on miata.net. When it turned 200,000 I couldn't put a 200 mph pic together so I settled for 110.

Fantastic! Mine gets redlined often, and I hope to keep this car for the rest of my life.
