[QUOTE="Knifemaker, post: 1402448, member: 1075"] Yep. Always been a sports car guy. Mustangs aren't sports cars. Commaros aren't sports cars. Owned an MG Midget, and an Austin Healy 3000. Also drove a Datsun 1600 Roadster (remember those?) Almost bought a Triumph Spitfire.... (Not going to count the Porsche 911 S Targa I had because it was too big....) The Miata was the embodiment of all those. The retractable hardtop made having a convertible for St. Louis winters a sensible concept. ;) Looking back I blame being a motorcycle rider on it. Logged more miles the first 9 years after I was old enough to drive on a bike instead of a car. (Didn't even own a car until after that) So tainted by the handling and nibbleness of two wheels, I just couldn't accept an automobile that didn't offer some of that too... [/QUOTE]
