				Any Miata fans?
			 
			
			Or MX5s if that sounds more masculine? Just curious.

			Love em!  Driving one for the first time instantly ruined my taste for how bigger cars drive, even so called sports sedans.

			I drove one before and absolutely loved it.  It was such a fun car to just fart around with, don't let it's appearance fool you.   I know a lot of people race them, they really are cool cars. |

			I've never had one, but I wouldn't mind one if I had the space.

			Cool what year?  Hopefully a stick shift not a snore-o-matic.  Hard to beat Miata shifters.. you might  want to change the tranny oil though.  You'll find a large degree of snobbery from the purists who drive the first gen miatas against the 2nd gen and 3rd gen, but in my book they're all great to drive.
