How does one justify a 2-seater sports car when motorcycles offer such ridiculous value for money?

The new, praised-to-the-moon Miata is ~$25k. It's a fair-weather two-seater with a tiny bit of luggage. It drives well enough but is anything but fast.

For half that money you can have a sport bike that also seats two, with whatever luggage you can fit in a backpack, that eats million dollar sports car for breakfast. For MX-5 money you're talking an ultra-exotic hand-built all-carbon track god that will out-drag a Veyron.

tl;dr: you dream of a Ferrari but settle for a Mazda, when you could have Ferrari performance (and Lamborghini exoticism) at Kia pricing with a motorbike.

Op do you own a motorcycle or a miata? They are two compleatly different experiences some people just want a nice comfy fun to drive roadster. Some want a killer fast 2 wheel beast . You can't really compare the two and they both fill much different needs

muscle beats import etc Anonymous 2016-01-02 05:54:05 Post No. 14155011 [Report] [View this topic]

so everyone on /o/ with a small Japanese Nippon mobile seems to hate any American cars, and vice versa.

my question is who else actually doesn't give a shit? they both have their obvious benefits.

which leads to my point, of why don't people have both. A muscle car, and an "import" for a DD.

nip cars get better gas mileage, good traction in all scenarios (FWD), are cheap to own and are reliable, drive nicely, handle good etc.

(good) American cars are usually much more powerful, much faster, better acceleration, better handling at speed, better braking, more stability, comfortable, better for highways, etc

anyone with a job can easily afford a muscle car and an economy car. so why the hate between the two

>i personally own an LS1 T/A and a 1.5l Civic DX hatch

why not you?

I feel lucky not to be part of the nationalistic shit flinging that comes with car culture. I only rank brands and cars on their own merits, not by the country they come from. I'd gladly have a high displacement Foxbody and a high boost S-Chassis in my garage.

Rented a kymco agility 50 in key west. Shit was fun but slow as balls, barely made it to 32 mph. I'm not even big or heavy, 110 lbs and leaning forward for aerodynamics.

I'd probably get a motorcycle or larger displacement scooter if I bought something with two wheels.

I had a 77, 180 HP and only came with automatic, maybe that's why.
The earlier ones were from 68 to 71 were cool, but after that, not really.
In my area you can find mid 70's Corvettes for $6,000 to $8,000

Lots of people here love the earlier ones with the chrome bumpers. A lot of people hate the later ones with the bumpers that stick out, but it was just for low speed bumper laws new at the time.

Yeah the later ones have shit power, but that's easily mended.

I love driving mine. You kind of feel like you're back in a different era.
