So I told him, just embrace the gayness...
So, my buddy just bought his first Miata: a 94 R package!
Hells yeah, good for him!
Problem is, he works with a bunch of douche nozzles and they are just relentlessly giving him **** for it.
Mostly gay stuff, which he shrugs off though it must get annoying, but also for paying slightly more than the "KBB excellent price". And anything else they can think of.
Considering he got the front and rear lips, LSD, thicker sways, better shocks (which I believe are the Bilsteins that everyone says can be revalved) it's like getting a non-modded, non-ragged out car that has mods!
Now about the asshats, every one of them has a car payment, and much higher insurance too. The only one with a legitimately cool/badass car has a g35 (I believe, might be the 350, whatever) But, he just dropped like $3k on a coilover kit just to slam it AND 20" wheels! Oh, and the best part is he pays his car payment to his grandmom. And this guy has the ***** to talk about a sub $3000 sports car that needs nothing (except for all the fun stuff) paid for in cash.
If it was me, I'd take everyone who said that the car is fagtastic for a ride, scare the crap out of them (hell, I could nearly bounce their head against the window if I whipped a jink-right-then-nasty-hard-left unexpectedly in a parking lot, lolz), then wait for them to start asking me questions about the miatas they find on craigslist.
But, here are his problems about solving this issue with speed:
First Rear wheel drive car
First Manual (can't drive it, but rides motorcycles, so it won't take long)
Relatively cautious by nature, doesn't want to wreck his new car/kill self/kill others.
So, with his current state, I figured out a few things he can do just to re-**** with people. Like:
Park as absolutely close to the guy in the g35 on dude's driver side with your passenger side so he has to crawl in through the passenger seat. With the excuse "we both have sports cars, we should park next to each other"
Act like a flaming homo, casually say things like "I talked to the previous owner, and he said he'd give me $500 bucks back if I gave him another blow job, what are you doing this weekend? Want to take a ride to VA?"
So eh, what else fellas? You guys are all gayer than me, you should have some ideas. The idea is not to 'get back' or 'get even' it's simply to **** with them until he's confident enough to smoke the g35 with douche-mods in tight twisties (and then it will be 'get back' and 'get even'
) He could certainly do it now with his bike, but putting a 500 lb piece of vibrating metal between your legs isn't homo, a miata is.

A 250 whp Miata will usually shut anyone up. It needs more boost!

When I first got my car everyone said I'm not gonna ride in it is gay and its a girls car and a convertable. All it took was one good ride with the top down with the best road near my house as fast as I could go before they all said man I want one of these they are awesome and I love the top down. Most of them fell in love with it before we got to the road just because the top goes down. Turbo it and jam there words up their asses and tell them that they just got beat by a gay car have a nice day.

It doesn't matter how much power it makes, how much fun it is to drive, that it's a relatively rare model, that it was factory built for track duty or that it's an afforadable, reliable fun car. People bash the Miata. No way around it. My wife doesn't like my car. Doesn't matter it's damn quick and I can push Cayman S' off the track, it's still a girly car to her. Live with the ignorance. You will not convert unbelievers.

This thread is full of gay. Why to we all insist on pleasing other men?!? If they're driving a lowered sports car with 20" wheels you're never going to change their mind. Tell your friend to shrug off the comments and enjoy his paymentless car. Whatever you do, don't try to sway their opinion by driving like an asshat in the parking lot, or "smoking his *** in the twisties", those are the videos that end up on YouTube.

The best thing to do is just to go along with it and not care what they say. When they make comments just give a little faggy waive and say "haaaaaayyyyy". Once they realize it doesn't bother you it won't be funny anymore. Or you could invite Mr. G35 on dubs to a local autocross; make some runs, compare times, that should shut him up.

I agree that the car (and mine unfortunately) needs more turbo, but I'm recommending he just gets used to driving this car first. It aint the same as his auto econo '92 260k mile civic. Once he gets comfortable with it, I will definitely suggest doing some autocrossing.

You haven't met my wife. She road along for several laps at Portland Raceway as a passenger with the regional spec miata champ. Full out. Howling tires around every corner, late braking, the whole bit. She had a great time, thrilling as hell. "So honey, Miatas are pretty impressive huh?" "Sure it's fast and fun but it's still a girls car!". You can't fight that.

It must be a right of passage for a guy buying a miata. I had a rainbow sticker and a "your boyfriend wants me" sticker put on at work. Worst part is a I drove around for three days before I noticed. I'm sure it looked real rich when My boss and I were conversing at a traffic light in our convertibles with the tops down.

Funny you mention that. My wife did the same thing to me when I first got the car.
