NA MX5 really is top shelf. my first experience in one was on a wet side road, my friend's car, and he kicked it sideways a few times. it was excellent fun, and the fact that it also gets good economy and is easy to maintain, it's just winning in every direction. the NA is my favorite of the bunch, just so simple and pure.

In the next couple of weeks I will be purchasing an NB and starting my own build. Thank you for undergoing this project and allowing us to follow along with you. Cheerio.

I actually turned down an 07 RX8 for an 02 NB about a month ago. Both were low miles and the RX8 had a new engine in it. I wasn't sure if I made the right decision for a while because of how that RX8 was just so damn nice and cheap in that kind of condition. But I know now the Miata was definitely the way to go. People aren't kidding when they say it just makes you smile, even if it's in its stock form. The driving experience is absolutely amazing especially with the top down on curvy mountain roads and it can only get better with the huge aftermarket support this car has. Everyone should drive a MX5 at least once in their life, "it's the best"(;
