Drooling... I've always loved the 12C. Makes a Miata look about as practical as a large 5 door hatchback lol.
The car looks great in that color as well. I've only ever seen them in red.
EDIT: 4C.... 4C.... 4C 4C 4C

It's a fun drive. Draws a crowd at every fuel stop.
And the KU-KU burger (and milkshake) was great. Apparently, Miami has the last one. My Dad used to work at the BFG plant there.

Once I get a clear bra on it and some sort of datalogging, I plan to take it out at, say, 90% just to see. My wife will be using it for beginner level HPDE.

I LOVE the look of the front. I've always admired Alfas and the trademark triangular "neckline" grill. I really can't explain how all of my pictures came out that way. ???

It's just more of a "my ride" posting. I'm expecting this car to go out of production soon and to be pretty collectible, so planning to just keep it stock and well-maintained.

They're incredibly wide. Wider than my full-size G8. You've got to plan your parking and be prepared to walk. Plus, when you are parked out in the boonies and you come out of Lowes Racing, there will be a line of pickup trucks out there checking out the car. Did I mention how many people you get to meet?

Too much fun!
Me and another Miata guy were laughing our heads off:
This car is a hoot. It's a 1G car with the OEM Pirellis. Plus, I love paddles. So easy.
