I also have a Miata but I think I'm going to sell it , my dogs have been using it for a house :shock: See I knew they are good for something..

Fred B stop by the "MG" trailer and have a glass of wine and some cheese and we can talk about which is more fun , a Mustang or Miata :P
If Speed=Fun, you may want to check out the track record for Spec Miata at the Glen...low 2:21's :wink:

how about u add in bmw not mustangs, and i got some love for miatas only because the are put together extremely clean and can handle a track.

I think I see the problem, and it is all a matter of taste. A Miata is like a fine Merlot, and a BMW is a smooth Shiratz, then you have the Boones Farm Mustang :roll:

Ok enough whine about the wine....the bottom line is you could fuel a Miata with prune juice and it still wouldn't sound very interesting- although it may smell better. Out of respect for the BMW drivers in the club that I like, I won't tell the joke about the difference between BMWs and porcupines that we tell in the real world. Almost time to fire those motors- some of us will need 800 cold cranking amps- others will just need to make sure the Gerbil is well fed the night before...you know who you are #-o

My Rodent is well fed, Thank You. My buddy says the Miatas sound like a swarm of angry hornets, but he drives a Orange MazdaSpeed Protege so what does he know?

Somewhere there was a question about coming to see what COM is all about. Come see, but be prepared to be sucked in like a drug addict.

"If anyone orderd the Merlot...Im leaving!"

(I may have misquoted the film slightly :) )

For me the miata is more like Vodka, I can drink as much as I like, Have an awesome time and wake up the next morning and not feel to bad at all whilst still having only spent $15.00 for a 1.5L bottle :)

I have some video on the way this weekend of NHIS last year.....

Thanks Scott. We like you too and you never know when may need to borrow a real car again :P And I don't think Boone's Farm is appropriate for the Mustangs either. More like a shot of Jack Daniels!

Yeah we did hijack the thread a little bit-sorry...just trying to stir the pot/ hornet's nest. And yeah grizzy's Protege sounds even worse than a Miata not to meantion the color. We can probably expect a rebuttal from the Protege camp soon...bring it.
Still waiting for Lee's response :wink:

You're making fun of MY car's color?? You drive a Lemon Yellow Mustang! I suppose it's a natural color on your car though. Lemon and Mustang are words commonly used in the same sentence. I think Webster's was going to make an exception and put them next to each other in the dictionary. ;-)

It took you 3 + hours to reply ? What, do you have a life ? If you do you have no place on this forum [-X

You can't make Miata-ade without squeezing a few lemons. There's nothing quite like driving the bag out of a re-bodied 1979 Ford fairmont... (that would be any '79-'93 Mustang) and living to tell about it.

Welcome to the forum, Dave. I didn't think you could resist.

Glad to drop by. Steve let me know what was going on, so I had to get my 2 cents in. LOL.
