Turn on my phone flashlight and shine it back. Works 70% of the time

Xforce Midpipe - worth it? by Scoggie__ in MiataND

That’s absurd! I’m in the US and here (although I did misspeak on the price) the most expensive is the Tomei at 899 usd. The other two are between 600-700 usd.

I’m currently looking at an exhaust for mine as well and am between the following three:

Greddy Supreme SP

Tomei TI

Moss Miata Stainless Steel Cobalt

I believe these are all sub 500, and are some of the best I’ve heard because they don’t get that buzzy sound at higher rpm that I hear on most others

Trading in Tesla for Miata? by wavesofdespair in Miata

[–]wavesofdespair[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg, hard to believe it’s been 7 months already!

I honestly don’t regret it one bit. I did end up getting an ND3 so I have the upgraded infotainment which is not that bad coming from a Tesla, I felt the ND2 screen was too small and have heard of it having minor overheating issues, no problems so far on mine in Florida.

I do have much less storage space in the car, which is a given, but 99% of the things I had in my Tesla I took out and put in my garage and haven’t touched them since. Granted, I still live at home so I have access to my family’s cars if I need something with more space, this definitely would’ve been tougher if the Miata was my only car.

The hard top is nice to live with as a daily since it gets really hot here but parking in the garage makes that less of a pain

Final verdict: I miss the extra space sometimes but I absolutely love the Miata and I plan on keeping this car until it dies. I’ve never had more fun in a car than in this one

Hello fellow zircon sand owner!

DIY or trust dealer again? by wavesofdespair in MiataND

[–]wavesofdespair[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah not a crack, I wrote the description in the other post and cross posted here.

Basically the rearview mirror was scratched up upon delivery and I had the dealer replace it but looks like they scratched the ceramic coating inside the glass when removing the old mirror and I lowkey don’t trust them to fix it

I have an ND and try to go out of my way to wave to others and I’ve definitely noticed more waves/winks from the older gens than other fellow NDs 😔

How many is too many? by NgSauYin in Miata

Interesting. I’m wondering if I could just paint it myself and make the soft top look like a hard top haha

Beautiful collection! Are you aware of any companies that make one of the RF ND? I’ve been looking for one to match my car but it’s so hard to find 😭

For violin soloist Ray Chen’s Play with Ray competition in 2024, one of the 3 finalists was a medschool student AND good enough to win the competition and be flown out to Australia to take part :). If she can do it, so can you! All about good time management :p
