Re: Miata

Searching for a used top now.

Take a look at a new, budget Kee top.  They were the go-to "I need to put a top on this to sell it" top back in my Miata days, but IIRC were actually very decent too

So question (I know this has probably been covered in the past but I can't remember the answer(s)) - what do you want out of your enjoyment with cars?  Do you want a fun street car that can handle auto-x and the occasional track day?  Do you want a "track" car that won't be driven on the street except maybe to/from events?  Are you looking to trailer something with your T4R?

I think a lot of the noise and frankly confusion others feel in your threads could be cleaned up with a simple list of "what I like/what I don't like" about the cars you currently own, and what you ultimately want to do with the cars you do own, or don't own yet. I know there's the "thoughts" thread over in the Lounge that touches on some of this but hell that thing is probably past it by this point. Just want to help if you ask for advice and stuff - a lot of the same moves have been made time and again and I'm not feeling the kind of love I'd hope you'd have for your projects, from your posts about the cars you've had.

That said I love me some Miata so I hope this one goes excellently for you 

Goodspeed, I honestly don't know what I want. I've been soul searching for a long time for what would make me happy and I honestly have no clue. It troubles me a great amount, if I'm being Frank. Stresses me out a lot. For now, I'm confident in my immediate plan of sell, fix, flip the E30/Miata.

After karting on Saturday, I'm most likely meeting someone in Richmond who is giving me a top on frame for free if I remove it from his car.

Polen, Dj, pleas elaborate what makes that NB interesting at all? I don't plan to ever buy an NA/NB again unless there is money to be made, it's given to me, or it's turning into a race car. Otherwise it's too small for me.



***IF I WAS TO SPIT BALL HYPOTHETICAL MADE UP SCENARIOS*** I might look at an E36 M or E46 330 after sitting on this money for a while, but I don't know if I want to go through the process of buying an old BMW again just yet.

Might consider buying a prepped Miata for DE stuff, but I would absolutely need to have some other kind of car as well.

**THESE ARE JUST IDEAS. DONT THINK IM DOING THIS TOMORROW. DONT GIVE ME SHIT FOR IT. THANKS**
