Just bought my first Miata...
 

Well, first things first I suppose so... Hi all!!! My name is Tanner and I'm just a poor white boy from livin' in Oregon who just bought my first Miata. It's a white '96 with power steering as the only option. It has 70k on the odometer and is totally stock besides some crappy eagle alloy wheels which I'm sure weigh a ton. More to come...

Hi Tanner, read the newb stickies and post some pictures of your car.

A couple crappy iPhone pics is all I have at the moment...

If you give the lights a light pull at the back you can get them to be flush with the hood. Looks like a super clean car though!

Welcome!

I was wondering about that. I haven't even been able to even drive it much yet. I'm a crane operator and I've been in Seattle for 2 weeks putting together a recycling plant... I got two weekends with the car so far and haven't had time to even crawl under it and take measurements of my exhaust yet, let alone cosmetic stuff. Thanks though for the tip, I'll yank them up a bit this weekend....

Made me think of GnR

Guess I needed
Sometime to get away
I needed some peace of mind
Some peace of mind that'll stay
So I thumbed it
Down to sixth and L.A.
Maybe your greyhound
Could be my way
Police and niggers
That's right
Get out of my way
Don't need to buy none of your
Goldchains today
I don't need no bracelets
Clamped in front of my back
Just need my ticket till then
Won't you cut me some slack


Chorus:


You're one in a million
Yeah, that's what you are
You're one in a million, babe
You are a shooting star
Maybe someday we'll see you
Before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you
But you were much to high
Much to high
Much to high
Much to high


Immigrants and ******s
They make no sense to me
They come to our country
And think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran
Or spread some fucking disease
They talk so many goddamn ways
It's all greek to me
Well some say I'm lazy
And others say that's just me
Some say I'm crazy
I guess I'll always be
But it's been such a long time
Since I knew right from wrong
It's all the means to an end, I,
I keep on movin' along


Chorus


Radicals and racists
Don't point your finger at me
I'm a small town white boy
Just tryin' to make ends meet
Don't need your religion
Don't watch that much TV
Just makin' my livin', baby,
Well that's enough for me
