Somebody help me. I am in the process of considering selling the teener to fund a miata. Here's the deal: Currently my daily driver is a 98 Suburban and the $2.00/gal gas prices are killing me. My 914 is basically a street legal track car that would take a lot of work to make a comfortable driver (currently no heating/ventilation parts installed and needs some window and targa seals bad). I only drive it on nice days w/ no chance of rain. I need a car that I can drive everyday (economical and fun) that still has the ability to do good things at the track.
For about the same money as I could get out of my 914, I could buy a nicely mod'ed Miata that has good heat, a/c, and a stereo...that I could drive in the rain, snow, and summer heat. Somebody talk me out of it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

that gay car thing is crap. Just feeding a very stupid stereo type. Like the Boxster's a chick car or the 914 was in it's day. I had a 2000 miata for a little over a year ( I almost wish I still had it). It was great, I even drove it cross country when I moved from FL to CA.
Gas mileage wasn't that great though. about 250 miles per tank...I think it was 12 gallons. I'd get close to 300 on an all highway trip. Sure was fast and fun though. |
