    Miata?

    Bruce, based on my 2 minutes of behind the seat time in a few miatas, try and get a 6 speed if you have a long highway commute. The 99 was revving pretty high in 5th at 70. Of course I'm used to cruising at 75 at 1600 rpm in the vette. Incidentally, the vette gets really decent mileage on the highway... On a 2 hour drive from Richmond, VA to DC, including an hour of stop and go traffic, I averaged 31 MPG. Where the vette suffers is around city driving. I normally get about 19, partly because my right foot has a problem The miata cures that somewhat.

    Miata?

    Mondo, I've always had a soft spot for the 2nd gen MR2. Just looked it up. Gas mileage is pretty disappointing for such a little car . Pretty much the same as my vette. Martin, that car looks great.

    Miata?

    I hang out at corvetteforum - thick skin. When his motor gets enough torque to loosen a lug nut on Frankn7, he can come make fun of me. :rofl:

    I started down this path looking for Geo Metros. Miatas are nicer, although not as efficient and a bit pricier - still fall within my efficiency criteria though.

    Miata?

    my 12mpg yukon is costing an arm and a leg, and the vette, while fairly efficient ( I can get 20 MPG with occasional sideways driving), is not a car I want to drag through the salt covered roads. looks like a higher mileage miata can be had for about 3k, and it should be easy enough to work on.

    Miata?

    thinking about getting a fuel sipper for commuting purposes. something I don't care about driving through whatever - and it has to be cheap, easy to work on, etc... paying cash. top of my list at this point is a 90's miata. somewhere on that list is a base mini, but I'm getting scared by reliability grumblings I read about. Then there are the perennial econo boxes: civic, corolla, focus, cobalt, etc... out of that lot, i like the looks of the civic the best. the main problem with the miata is it will be another drop top 2 seater, and I already have 2 of those.
