Car included I’ve invested probably 15k into my NB. Love it to death, and everything mentioned is pretty accurate. The part about using good quality parts is where it gets out of hand, these cars are old and need a lot of love, even the really well preserved specimens.

[lengerer]

I own 8 vehicles that get driven periodically. My stock na mx5 1.6 is still my fav. Their just something so fun about them. The perfect vehicle imo

[communistduck]

I've been driving my 95 NA for a year now, stock power (for the most part) and now I am building up the power and handling.

[ThePointlessBox_]

every winter when I put mine to sleep I think to myself ''this season is the last one, im selling it''
then spring comes around and I cant let go. I think this one is going with me to the end

[MrXboxUser]

I finally got mine retuned and it now makes 196whp 198wtq and it’s so fun with the turbo 🎉 1.6 til I die

[gregg]

Finally got my own miata after years of saying maybe soon. 1.6L silverstone. Time for Flyin Miata coils, RPF1’s, Laguna seca wrap, and a momo wheel.

[PrplexedMG]

I got mine almost a year ago. It’s a 1.6 na and it’s got KBD front bumper (working in getting the body kit for it) and wide body, Godspeed coilovers, looking for wheels which I know what ima get, then get it under my name (the 1pin female o2 sensor tore so I gotta get the pigtail) it’s got aluminum doors on the inside, fixed the flippy light motors, then also put a adapter in the wooddrift key to save it a bit(could be mistaken) then eventually gonna get new wide body and wraps it all black with red top or accents of red. Overall color being black red and little white. I love the car

bro after binge watching miata videos.. that break between the intro and the history didn't have to go that hard..

[elisaromanishin]

In the process of buying a 1990 Miata right now, can't wait until it gets here!

[TLS_GUY]

I own an NA Miata in the states. I just moved to Japan 2 weeks ago and I’m buying an NB Miata tomorrow. It’s crazy especially since 2 years ago I absolutely hated them and talked so much shit about them.

[tylerdouangmala]

just bought a clapped 91 for 1500 and i have no idea what i’m doing

[cagednstatic]

I have both a 1.6 and a 1.8. 1.6 is weak but so much funner

[bonecrushereye]

The paint one is true lol, had to repaint both headlight covers from DEEP scratches leading to the whole cover flaking away
(edit) also the brakes, ive only owned 4 cars, isuzu SUV, 2 civics and a miata, both civics and the miata felt actually unsafe on stock brakes

[kotajames]

Out of all the cars I've had (237) I've yet to own a Miata. "Without you un-aliving yourself" 🤣

[fizzibility]

jus discovered your page and this was one of the most entertaining vids i’ve seen in a long while LMAO

[michaelfranklin]

Will start my build soon! Giving myself $20k budget including the car. These cars are expensive for what they are. If someone took car of it, they are asking for more than $10k

[paisleyplastic]

just got a 92 NA, I've snapped so many bolts

[tarsan]

Every guy I've known who boosted their NA ended up blowing up the engine. I've had mine for 5 years stock and it's still running strong. Keeping them stock is preferred if you daily them

How to modify a NA miata 2024 edition

Step 1: buy cheap rgb led headlights

Step 2: buy replica wheels

Step 3: buy replica steering wheel and hub aka NRG

Step 4 buy the cheapest coil overs you can find. Extra points if you just run lowering springs

And now you are like the majority of the NA's that are on IG and at crappy car meets

[baltod]

I like this. Lets see what you can do.
