Finally have both my dream cars....
My miata is definitely faster, but....
I have been wanting one of these badly since they came out when I was twenty. Its taken this long but it was a great price and I was able to borrow the money without putting my families financial security at risk. But I probably wont get to really drive it, considering I put 2.5K on the miata this past summer mostly just to the track, and this car isn't going there. Yet I will be driving a 94 villager pos everyday so I can have them in my garage.
The 20/19 inch Niche chromes weigh about 200lbs each and will need to go, but they actually look very sweet in person and have brand new tires. Anyone want to upsize?
I was unsure of the color, but I love it in person.
It isn't going turbo for a while, salary limited. It needs a clutch but we are putting one tomorrow, traded for ownership of my 97 m edition track **** project. Can't wait to accelerate without feathering it.

OP. Congrats on the purchase, I'm sure they're great cars.. Just not for me.
I hear "dream car" from a lot of peoples mouths, and it typically involves a Honda of some sorts. ******* incredible. Don't want to **** on anyones dream, but I think of Dream car I typically associate a 250,000 Minimum price tag..
:Edit: I forgot to mention.. I like the color, a lot. Very uhm, how you say, Semi-stealthy.. Like, "It wasn't me Officer, Seriously." and it would almost be believed.

Thanks guys.
If everyone liked them, I wouldn't have been able to buy one for $17,750. So, I'm grateful not everyone likes the same stuff. I have even heard some people don't like miatas, dumb asses.
Cody from Lovefab put a clutch in it this afternoon and now it drives like new. And with only 157K miles on it. As for power, there is this device called a turbo...

woah.. 17k.. Not too bad.. Mileage scares me.. Interior looks in good shape from a far, how is it up close?
Those wheels are kinda baller looking... But I bet you can get a good chunk of $$ from em!
