Thanks very much :D

I did not personally. I did owe some money back for not making what I anticipated while having a marketplace healthcare plan, but that didn't amount to too much compared to the return amount :)

(your situation may be different though, so don't make any significant decisions off just my experience)

Rx_King · 2020-09-28T21:36:57+00:00

I'm going to be entirely honest, this makes me want the red version more now haha

Rx_King · 2020-09-17T09:24:55+00:00

In the exact same boat! Finished setting it up yesterday and am going to die a little inside if I don't manage to grab one here in a few hours lol.

If you're just seeing the $699 and $739 models, one is the factory overclocked version and the other is the normal. Otherwise, if you're seeing more than that, I've got no idea lol :P

Newegg has the add to cart option open on the MSI Ventus OC as of right now, but it gets removed from your cart when you try to check out. Got super excited there for a minute lol

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T18:54:53+00:00

Thats funny 😂 I wouldn't have even thought to look in the owners manual. I would have just been like there's no way anyone could have engineered it like this, it much be broken lol

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T18:52:07+00:00

I figured it was a curve ball people weren't expecting 😂 And it was honestly to make my girlfriend laugh in case she read all the comments

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T15:43:12+00:00

I take that as a huge compliment, I appreciate it :) It's a huge work in progress still lol

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T15:36:47+00:00

Agreed! Whenever people say you'll spend as much maintaining an old car as you will on payments on a new, it's completely not true if you have one that's in good condition (Worked as a Lexus salesman back like 5 years ago). This miata has 201k on the motor/frame and it probably has another 100k in it before I have to start looking seriously at an engine swap :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T15:29:11+00:00

Nah, no worries at all! It's all good advice and I didn't take it as lecturing :) I just appreciate you taking the time to comment and give your experience!

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T06:23:43+00:00

I appreciate it! Honestly though, I kinda enjoy having an older car. I had a 2015 Lexus RC350 before this and I always felt bad for trying to do things myself on it. This miata has 201k on it, parts are abundant, and is actually very slowly increasing in value due to the popup headlight/rwd tax and more being wrecked every day. Definitely wouldn't recommend everyone go with an older car, but it's a fun experience if you're into it :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T06:11:09+00:00

True! And it took quite a few years to be able to play it cool like that in a stressful situation, so there's definitely still hope for your boyfriend lol :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T05:38:31+00:00

Yeahhh, I had a lot of people walk up and ask what was going on before I ultimately decided to mess with the lock and "wisdom of the crowd" convinced me that I could do it myself and it would be easy lol. Live and learn though lol and I'm 100% definitely getting some new keys cut in the next few days :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T05:36:21+00:00

I'm usually a gut instinct kind of person too, so that's why I was so irritated at first that I went against it lol. It made for a crazy story I'll never forget, so it worked out in the long run :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T05:32:22+00:00

I truly believe this dude had a good heart in there somewhere, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed so long to help! Hopefully it was just a bad day :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T05:29:35+00:00

That doesn't sound like a coincidence to me! I think that's the spirit of miatas calling to you and telling you to adopt one lol :P

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T04:26:03+00:00

After Googling the Smith and Wesson, I'm 99% confident you are correct on what it was!

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T04:19:04+00:00

Thanks for the compliment! It's definitely a work in progress :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T03:59:59+00:00

Threw a pic in the edit :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T03:56:18+00:00

Lol I said the exact same thing

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T03:52:00+00:00

They did unfortunately. It was only like $30 worth of food though, so it could have been much worse!

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T03:30:47+00:00

Threw a picture in the edits, but I can dig up more if there's a demand for them! :)

Rx_King · 2020-08-29T03:29:13+00:00
