nmwisima's '96 Miata

[XJS]

Congrat for the MX-5! My daily driver is a 2003 1.8. Handling is amazing.
The hungarian Miata community looks like an exeption, 'cause they are friendly and has no "gay" or "snob" attitude.

[nmwisima]

I do not intead to keep these stupidly-large-Fast&Furious rims.

They will go asap!

Gay community? Maybe.

I found topics like "MX5 and iPod" or "MX5, is it a car for everybody?"

I thought I wanna throw up

But I m here, not there, right?

KMA...

:-) me be only joking.

i always used the miata in need for speed underground in drifts ;-) cool car ;-)

[nmwisima]

Just noticed your sig. You have 3 cars? Damn. Hate you.

[dAYTONA]

I have 4.

and I just got told there is one with some rear end damage somewhere....

So it might be 5 soon.

I like you too ;-)

So, yes.

well i was kinda absent for a couple of months now, so that came to me as a bit of a shock. i'll go read that topic now and flame you some more there.

[Apolan]

okay so i've read the infamous thread. since it is a bit outdatted i'll continue to flame you here.

Belive me i know how it is when you put so much money in it and stuff still dont work. I was about to sell my hachi 2 times. But still decided to hang in here. Love it to much. So its a shame no doubt; but maybe when you have more time or money, you'll get a new hachi and fix it up.

Onto the miata. Surely its a great car. I was so surprised how it handles. Its pretty much the best handling car ever. its so neutral, just perfect. Couldnt say its a drift machine tho. I think it has a bit of a short wheelbase for that purpose. Though i had the most fun of my life drifting a miata in snow. (Note: my hachi died just before winter).

My friend (whose miata i've driven) had this terrible accident 2 months ago. The miata is tottaled; it crashed into a concrete fence, roled over, grinded the roof on the asphalt for some 50metres and than crashed into another concrete fence.. Amazingly the roof had withstood the impact, so my friend got it of only w/ some bruises and a light concusion. And had no safety arches, so those seats have done their job for sure. safety wise that miata isnt so bad. though the side impact might be dangerous..

anyway its a great car, hope you have many happy moments w/ it; besides i think miata suits your poser-nature more than the AE86.

oh and when buying rims go for the WORK EQUIP 4 spoke shuriken type. those are made for miata.. ill try and find a pic..
