I used to not like Miatas

Then I started hanging out here more often and now I really want one. In fact my "next" car whenever that will be , will probably be one just like this NA. I love every thing about it, except maybe add a roll bar.

Spotless engine bay too!

In my imaginary garage with my imaginary checkbook I have ordered a FlyinMiata Turbo Kit

My friend, who also has a blue NA, has shown me this exact model so many times. I also used to not care one way or another about Miatas, but now I want one just as an AutoX car

As owner of a 1.6 NA, i have to say that on the twisy roads this car was meant for, I can't even use all of the 116 hp it makes.

More power wouldn't hurt, but it doesn't really need it.

you're talking to a muscle car guy, so in turn I'm also a power guy. I love the rush of the powerful acceleration. I'm just not a twisty/turny kind of guy, and that's fine. I was really just teasing the guy. I'm not a miata person but they can't be that bad if all of you miata maniacs (that should be your nickname btw, I'm going to TradeMark it if I can) are so obsessed with them.

No, it's perfectly natural to say any car needs more power IMO. Just because I can't use all of mine on the twisties doesn't mean I'm not planning on adding more. Hell, I wouldn't leave a '69 Hemi Charger stock either.

But the Miata really is a hoot and a half even at stock power levels on the right road.

I drove one of these a while back and hated every minute of it. I am fearing that I will be banned from oppo.

I suppose an additional part of the problem is "the right roads" don't exist in Michigan. It's all long barely curving straights for the most part. I know of one hidden twisty place though. It was pretty funny I was in a rush one day and took that hidden twisty background to make up time, and I found a pack of old MG's frolicking through the twisty spots hahahaha.

And as for the 69 Charger comment, I haven't left my 68 Montego stock so I doubt I would leave a 69 Charger either.
