OK, so I've been reading the Miata threads, they're pretty good. Some of ya'lls best work. I never paid the car no mind. That is until today.
I had to take the wife's car to the dealer for some brake work. The dealer was out of loaner cars so they rented me a Miata. Asked me if it was "OK". I thought to myself; "Aha, the guys on APC talk 'em up, why not!".
What a awesome little car. It is great. Awesome handling. I really like the steering wheel position. Having raced cars in the past, the position is almost perfect. Could use some more power though, but otherwise an awesome driving car. I'd love to rage around the track on it.

I was at a Miata themed track day a few years ago and the paddock was full of Miatas. I saw one lady park her Miata in a way that blocked another Miata and she walked away. The male driver of the blocked car asked whose car it was and I answered, "It's a girl's car." He quickly responded with, "These are all girls cars"

Watkins Glen’s loss is ATL’s gain. I will be looking for Miata sports cars in the sports car races over the weekend

My wife's car is a 2019 BMW 7 series. It is a lease (for Turbosina), she leases her cars as part of her business. The dealer had no loaners available so they rented me the Miata from Enterprise. Again, really fun little car.
