it's better as Fiat 124

now that's the overrated one

>>15292417
Everyone thinks because it's turboned that they will only have to spend $600 for a tune and make 220hp. It cracks me up.
But the LS1 $500 and an afternoon started out as a serious post too.

Roadsters are the pinnacle of automotive enjoyment.

miata is the best sports car 2bh

>>15292424
For that money you can get the same unit on the abarth punto/500 making 230hp, so why wouldn't it be possible on the 124?

>>15292291

MX-5 has ruined this board, and the automotive community in general

why is is always the miata people that do this

>>15293800
Why buy a Miata when you can get a Boxster? Serious question.

>>15292424
Here's the thing - the engine is already being used in the fiat 500. And it's already been tuned to 220hp.
so yeah, it's pretty much a fact

>>15294109
m96 a shit

>>15294109

Cause the Miata costs a lot less?

>>15292291
Not overrated, but too expensive.

/o/

It's lighter, faster, and more fuel efficient than the previous model while reportedly being more fun to drive. Sounds good to me.

nice mental gymnastics

Probably not.

NA miatas are overrated as can be. They handle well, but if you want to get past entry-level, you have to blow upwards of 3 grand to make 160-180 reliable horsepower; not including the rear end & clutch upgrade you'll need. granted, by then you'll be smoking anything short of exotics, but at the end of the day, you spent nearly 8-10 grand to get to that point and you're still in a noodle chassis miata hardly fit for daily driving.

>his year, the astronomical summer begins on 20 June 2016 and ends on 22 September 2016. The astronomical calendar determines the seasons due to the 23.5 degree tilt of the Earth's rotational axis in relation to its orbit around the sun. Both equinoxes and solstices are related to the Earth's orbit around the sun.
why are miata owners such fucking retards? No it is not summer yet you faggot

and for the record I just googled "miata hairdresser" and that was the second image to come up.

Do you think that just maybe you're replying to multiple people? For the record, no one ITT has brought up FF vs FR. Oh wait, except for you. Maybe you're the butthurt one?

And if you're expecting a stock Miata to be fast in a straight line, well...

>>15294350
> being this mad

Show me on the doll where the Miata hurt you

I daily an NA Miata. It's both overrated and underrated. I'm probably going to be selling mine but I also love it.

Ask me anything I guess.

>>15294109

Cost of maintenance/initial investment severely differ

Daily reminder that you can take your shitbox NA and turn it into a perfectly capable, comfortable daily driver by adding a FM frame brace, sound insulating the rear deck, wheelwells, & trunk, and installing a small amp with marine rated speakers.

>>15294350
tl;dr I don't arguee with summerfags

These threads usually go to shit pretty fast.

Miatas, like many cars, can be made to go as fast as you can afford to spend on them. Unlike other cars (Nissan S-bodies come to mind), they're also stupidly fun to drive bone stock. I dailied my NA for two years, 99% stock, before going with forced induction and other goodies. I'm not sure which version I enjoyed more.

That's not even the new Miata. For the record though, the ND MX5 is actually faster than that CTR to 60.

I have a mx5 NC, fugged 3 girls because of the car

>>15294079
I'd say that's pretty fucking inaccurate.

I just recently bought an MX-5 (A mazdaspeed), after I drove along with a friend in his NB2 on back roads. Now, we get roughly 3/4 of us with MX-5s together each weekend and drive the back roads.

Meanwhile, every lifted diesel in town is meeting at a gas station/a parking lot in the center of town where they do absolutely nothing car related but talk shit to people with cars.

The other half of the people own shitboxes with very shit enhancements like junkyard turbo setups, etc.

I like to respect anyone who enjoys their car and puts work into it, but recently, the faggotry that encircles owning a lifted diesel truck is just overwhelming. I mean, if you're gonna chill in a parking lot at a car meet, why not do something car related rather than talk shit and try to fight people. Go out and off road or drive and actually enjoy the presence of people who share your hobby.

On another note, I've had a few of them talk shit about my MSM within hearing distance. I choose to ignore it. I own a fair share of mostly brand new vehicles and very capable Jeeps, so some faggot in a 90's Cummins is welcome to shit talk my weekend driver while I'm out doing hecktic skids on some back roads.

>>15294641
lol beta cuck

>>15294646
lel ok I own a built Z06 and I was gonna add that the same fag that talked shit about my MSM also complemented my Z06. He didn't realize he'd met me before.

>>15294664
>someone talks shit
>you don't hit
Beta af

>>15294667
nah dude, I CC a KP95, but I'm not trying to approach a very unpredictable and mostly drunk crowd with cops lurking nearby to threaten someone.

The thing I think most MX-5 people get shit for is thinking their car is faster than it is. I'll gladly admit you have a faster car or whatever it is your adamant on proving yourself with. At the end of the day, I have a 750WHP Vette that nobody knows about.

I drive the MX-5 to have fun on to twisty roads. Your welcome to have an opinion on that. It is irrelevant to me.

>>15294641
who hurt you?

>>15294697
When are you going to learn some common sense and strike your fellow man when he gibes.
only use gun when you start losing you massive pussy.

>>15294641
Miata owners are obnoxious, it's always a miata owner who brags about RWD. Quit it anon. Miatas ruined car enthusiasm by removing all personality of the driver and everyone just saying "BUY MIATA THE INTERNET SAYS MIATA IS BEST" and promoting this awful "RWD IS BETTER" opinion that continues to permeate throughout the millennial generation.

It's not personal, you're just ANOTHER Miata douche.

You don't know heroin addicts.

>>15294739
All of the heroin addicts I know literally drive shitty old HD trucks, some are diesel and they all work in manual labor.

It's not a matter of being afraid of jail, rather than an alpha knows that spending any time in jail is a waste of time you moronic fuck.

>hurer durr i have to protect my honor from anyone who says mean things to me >;(

The real alpha turns the other cheek instead of resorting to violence, you have a lot to learn little omega friend.

talk shit to anyone in a prison and see what they do.
See if they "turn the other cheek"

your comparing prison to the outside world. Sure is edgy in here. I'm sure when Daniel shits on you in your junior year of high school for wearing red croc's that you wildly turn ape man and kill him.

I have a wife and a family to provide for, amongst other things I'm working to achieve so I'm not a door mat at mummy and daddy's house and taking up their driveway with "ohhhhh muh truck so big and bad and loud and lol fat gurls can't climb"!!!

oh yeah, I already have a criminal record and I've been to jail twice, so there is always the fact I'm trying to keep it cool so I don't degrade myself to common alley trash like I was before.

>>15292291
The ultimate meme car. Something like a Focus RS or Golf GTI costs around the same and smokes the Miata in all performance metrics.

People in prison are about as beta as it gets.

>>15294739
>itt people who have never been to jail or prison.

Unless your chimp ass is in max for robbing the 7-11 at gun point twice in one day, you really don't see all that much aggression.

It isn't scary being in jail. What is scary is the idea that something is on your name for the rest of your life until your bones turn to dirt just because you decided to whop Travis upside the head with a backhand in front of 11 of his own friends as witnesses and a cop a block away waiting for people to start pulling mustang games on the main roads.

lol I remember when I thought my Si was a god car. Now I hit 10 more WHP than the Si had at crank just from having an FM Intake and exhaust. I also used to think RWD was just a meme.

FWD isn't bad, don't get me wrong, I own plenty of FWD cars and have enjoyed them. Stock for stock, you'll have more fun with a Miata of almost any type than any of those cars, except maybe a Focus RS, which has a massive price difference.
