            Yeah, I think next year might be a bit soon. But definitely a year they come through Hallett and back up around your area.

            The Mustang needs some work put into it before it could REALLY be hussled around.

              Yeah, if we can find a year that they hit MAM, MPH, AND Hallett... that would be awesome.

                  I was never confused for a girl, in mine. Got flashed by chicks a few times, as well. I guess I modded mine in a way that looked more manly.

                          This is the most recent picture I got of my MX5 (European Market Miata).

                          It's a 1994 "Transition Model", meaning it got parts from both before and after the 1994/95 "facelift".
                          -1.8 engine
                          -84.000km (about 52k miles)
                          -ABS
                          -Power Steering
                          -Driver's side airbag (became stock in Germany 1995)
                          -Slim dashboard (no passenger airbag)
                          -15" NB Miata wheels (Enkei, very light and look good)
                          -Two previous owners
                          -Full documented history
                          -Came with an original hardtop (no-one needs or wants those around here)


                          Originally I wanted to get a cheap MX5 1.8, strip the interior, cage it and get a supercharger-kit fitted (and approved).
                          But the car I ended up buying was, apart from some heavy rust, too good to do that to it.
                          So I took it apart, had the rust removed (without any filler, since that promotes rust), and now I'm almost done putting it back together.
                          Only changes I'm doing is a roll bar and upgraded brakes (by going for better ones, not bigger ones).

                          Max

                            The 2019 engine updates are making me consider going to test drive a new Miata.

                            I love the 135i, but it's quick enough around town as to be frustrating. I got my first speeding ticket in a decade after owning it for 3 weeks. Thankfully the LEO was cool and didn't write me for what he really could have and just gave me a 10 over, so it wouldn't go on my record.

                            I miss having a convertible as well.

                              I feel you on that.

                              It's hard to enjoy your car when you step on it and you're going 80 in 2 seconds lol.

                              A light, moderately powered car is way more enjoyable around town IMO than a 300hp + car.
