Awesome. Gonna have to work with the SO to see if I can convince her to let me buy one

Whatever. Just so it drifts.

But you still Clown Shoe, right?

Manual, club package, “ceramic” paint color, BBS/Brembo package. Terribly fun to drive. So far I’ve driven it better than 95% top down.

Yes. The Clown Shoe is just on the other side of that garage door in the picture.

There was another guy at the dealership while I was there also buying one. He had to convince his SO but she came around.

Didn’t know you had one but I’m glad it’s gone. I built the Hyundai booth they use in LA and I installed it the year that Veloster thing came out. I remember sitting down for a break, looking at it and deciding it was awful. Miata is nice. I did the Mazda booth this year and I got to move those around, as well as a cup car, they look great.

Nice! I wish I fit in one of these. I absolutely love the way they look.

That’s really pretty.

Sat in one at a local auto show. Not sure I could deal with how small it is inside or how little room I’d have for a helmet with the top closed.

Well, she’s pretty against convertibles so I feel like this is a good compromise. That and to get her over the size part

top up, it’s pretty much just like a regular tin-top. it holds the AC in, it’s pretty quiet

Clown shoe pilot AND MX-5 RF owner?

You are my hero.

My favorite thing is that my garage is air conditioned.

You are making it even easier to just sit there with a good drink and stare at the sexiness.

I want to drive one! Maybe I’ll get lucky and one will show up on Turo.

just go to a dealership and test drive one

That really is beautiful in that ceramic color - even better than the darker colors. There is a bit of 2000gt in the lines from that angle I hadn’t really noticed before.

Me like. Must cut legs shorter so can drive.

Tell me more about the Accord wagon

That’s the logical answer, but there are few places that I feel less comfortable than dealerships.

My word, that rear roofline is beautiful.

Wind noise & buffeting aren’t too terrible top down?

Not terrible at all. There’s good magic installed somewhere. At 70mph with the top and windows down you can have a conversation using your inside voice

It’s a 1996. We found it on craigslist and Mrs. Shoe Pilot uses it for hauling the dogs around and doing volunteer pet grooming for meals on wheels. It’s currently in need of as yet undetermined suspension parts refresh and and alignment, and the paint is terrible. Now that the Veloster is gone, the wagon will be getting a trailer hitch installed so we can pull our little 5x8 utility trailer when we need to take a load of brush to the dump.
