Nice & clean. I miss mine. I've been looking for another one for a few months now.

NC's don't get too much love, yours is nice though! They share a fair bit w/ the rx8 chassis & fairly easy to make into a great yet easy handling car.

now just hold on a second here....youre a hairdresser and you rock a Magenta convertible Miata?

Or are you pulling a funny?

Would be nice, but the money could go towards a new car.

It's fun as it is though

I like that last photo. I like the paint! A friend of mine used to race a Miata at Lime Rock.

I miss mine everyday. The NC's are kind of the bastard child for some reason. I had an NB, pretty much stock and it was by far one of the funnest cars I've ever driven. I've since wanted a Mazdaspeed Miata.

NC is less raw then NA/NB but it works since it's my daily.
The joke is on a NC you can run over a cigarette butt and feel it in the steering wheel, on a NA you can tell what brand of cigarette it was.

The mazdaspeed miata is fairly underwhelming stock, but in terms of autocross times, a BSP class mazdaspeed is as quick as a GT3 or Z06 on r comps (SSR)

Yeah, stock they're not super impressive in terms of acceleration. A set of tires, bolt on's and tune would make a badass auto-x car that would embarrass a lot of people who don't know what they're capable of.

Lol That's a very accurate statement. I've driven all platforms except the brand new one, and they get better every generation. The NC is a better car, the NA/NB is a better Miata is what i've always heard. With the NA being a better Miata then the NB. I love them all, but like I said earlier, I'd buy an MSM if I buy another.
