    New Ride ( not mine)

    My mom decided to bring this thing home the other day lol. Its a 99, emerald green, cloth int. and its a 5-speed. Yes its a miata, but it is so fun to drive, handles amazing. At first the stang was not pleased about it but shes beginning to lighten up.

    My dad used to have an 05 Mazdaspeed MX5 Miata in red, that thing was a blast to drive (super light + turbo = FUN). They're cool cars, they just have a bad rep.

    Nah make it a monster miata, like the one Stacey David did on gears with a mean a$% 347 stroker in it minus the body kit he put on his that made it look like an old opel GT

    haha i showed her some videos with the ls1 in it, she likes it the way it is to say the least.

    edit: just noticed it has sick ricer wheels on it, those are worth like 40hp a piece, atleast.

    I saw the episode where Stacey David built that Monster Miata. Those cars are so light that even with a stock 5.0 they'd be very very quick - kindof like a kit Cobra. Someone on here needs to build one!!! Lou - is that ragtop done yet? Time for a new project!!!!!
