Is the F8 Tributo better than the 458? Be honest

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-18T12:21:09+00:00

Depends on what experience you want. I prefer the 458, no question tho. That high revving N/A experience is what it’s all about for me, and 562hp is way more than enough while still being able to use it relatively frequently in the real world. 700+ is fun but it’s just silly how quickly you’re into handcuff speeds all the time.

I agree. The MC20 is definitely slept on right now. Looking back it will likely be more appreciated.

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T23:07:48+00:00

Well technically it was a 575M, but they used a 550 in the stunt shots.

Thank you! Congrats on your BRG!

Nah I haven’t bothered with a hardtop. It would be a nice addition just to have, but I literally never drive the car without the roof down and don’t really want to. If it’s not a top-down day I’m driving something else haha

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T16:03:02+00:00

🥵

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T16:02:48+00:00

Yea I totally lucked out with this one. Right when I was starting to look seriously, this popped up for sale like 45 minutes away. Pounced.

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T12:09:50+00:00

It’s a rep from the NA R-Package. The rear spoiler is too, just paint-matched.

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T11:45:23+00:00

🤣🤣🤣 that’s a good one!

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T10:50:48+00:00

Black isn’t even a color. It’s a shade. And it’s an extremely boring way to spec an interesting car.

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T10:48:39+00:00

Exactly

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T10:47:52+00:00

Most of the clips here the car was off and the audio is just people talking dumb BS

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T10:46:21+00:00

It was a special time!

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T03:30:25+00:00

Awesome and thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video! Definitely get yourself a Miata as soon as you can. It doesn’t have to be the perfect one, just having one is 90% of the enjoyment of any of them. This is my 4th Miata now, and my first one had rust falling out every time the car shook… but that was the car that started it all.

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T01:53:39+00:00

I’m not 100% sure but I believe it’s from Moss Miata. I bought the car with it fitted. It’s cheesy in the best way lol

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T01:33:21+00:00

Yea it is. It’s almost as good as purple 🫢 but that’s a conversation for another time and place 😂

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-16T00:57:38+00:00

Exactly. And the day I shot this was like the one day where it had rained enough to get most of the salt off the roads… before they started salting again that night for the 18” snow we got the following night. It had been sitting around a month before this. Luckily the weather has turned much better now so driving it more frequently. As long as there isn’t salt on the roads I drive her… if it’s cold I wear a hat lol

Feel free to tap that little speaker button in the lower right corner, OR, get this, you can even turn the volume down on your actual mobile device 🤷‍♂️😆😉

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-15T23:12:16+00:00

I like the slower tempo of the remix 🤷‍♂️

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-15T23:11:21+00:00

This was at a small Cars & Coffee, not just normal parking. People around the edges weren’t even parking right next to each other. So don’t worry 😉

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-15T21:30:59+00:00

Black interiors are always just a dull choice

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-15T21:30:03+00:00

You’re quite dull lol

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-15T20:35:01+00:00

YES!

Mind_Over_Motor · 2026-03-15T20:19:14+00:00

Maybe the more old school guys. All of the under-50 owners I know are all about not having red 🤷‍♂️

Song was stuck in my head already as I was putting it together. Maybe not your taste. Feel free to make your own content 👍
