3 Decades later I finally pulled the trigger

I had a Miata for about a month back in 1996 and have ached for one ever since. My buddy got tired of hearing me say I was going to get one (he’s been hearing it for about the last 10 years) and suggested yesterday that we go down and just check them out… I came home with a 2025 GT and haven’t stopped smiling!

I love the new Miata styling. I have a cx5 so Mazda sent me an invite to take the Miata around a track, it's a lot of fun.

I kinda want one, but I wish they were doing a better job with moving to electric. Feels like Mazda is going to be left behind.

I'm partial to Ignition Red that was on their MazdaSpeed 3s, but this is a very close 2nd.

I gotta get a Miata

I know the feeling, I’ve wanted one for decades but it was never practical. Now I have two college kids trying to share one car and it’s not working. I could really use an extra car for the summer ….. they can use my practical car.

Those college expenses though
