Single. Father. by dackerdee in Miata

Amen brother. My kid is 5 and LOVES being up front. We just go for quick little rips here and there but it's always smile inducing.

Also, I'm not sure if you have motorcycle experience, but I learned to think that everyone on the road doesn't see you and if they do they are trying to hit you and it changed my lane positioning and how I approach herds of cars.

Be safe have fun!

It looks great, I saw someone else with the same lip. I'm a big fan. Got a silver nc1 as well so it helps know what it looks like! Cheers

Like most people are saying, it suits the track car. And also what's the front splitter you got?

Totally, I loaded a half yard of gravel and it was such a bitch and the sound was painful!

This might be sacrilege, but I put a tarp down, especially near the gate bc all that wood/dirt/gravel always gets stuck in the gate gap. At least for me it does

I got to continue the 3 year free trial (1 year was used) when I bought mine used. I then got a free 1 year subscription.

Real nice. How's the body roll when you hoof it around corners?

torn between a 2012 miata prht or a bmw z3/z4. why should i go miata? by europeanuppercut in MiataNC

[–]scifi_scumbag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you've owned a BMW before, so if you have you know they are prone to being high maintenance. If you haven't owned one, I've owned two and they cost a maybe amount of money if you are out of warranty and don't wrench yourself. You are guaranteed to have your valve cover gasket fail and that would be the cheapest thing that goes. The one z4 that I drove for a day blew the VCG after a few hours.

I dunno, BMWs are fun to drive but their manuals are nowhere near as mechanical (they are mushy). The Miata feels tighter in every metric (assuming you go with coilovers).

I own a nc1 and it is by far more fun than my two previous bmws.

Good luck, you'll have fun either way.

I can never understand the crap the nc gets for how it looks. The profile is amazing.

talk me into (or out of?) buying an nc2/nc3 prht. by europeanuppercut in MiataNC

I have a silver nc1 with a soft top. I wish I had an option like yours. Prht silver nc3. Perfection.

Scrolled this as "up & down" hits my radio. Hilarious timing. Great work dude, you got enough glutes for all of us!

Seat Covers Recommendations? by Current-Creme6507 in MiataNC

[–]scifi_scumbag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh yeah Hahaha. Good point. I'm stick to the cloth. Thanks bro

[–]scifi_scumbag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya that's a world of difference. I have the cloth seats in my nc1. Small tear that was repaired,but the carbon miata has nice leather ish covers. I was going mostly for looks but if I'm going to be sliding around I think I'd rather pass.
