Fant denne på nettet og må innrømme at, jo ..... :oops:

You know you're an NA Miata owner when...

~You have to explain to people that the car's faster if they're not in it, and then dodge the slap and accusations that you're calling them fat.
~You've spun out at least once, then quickly got going again, purposely spun 180 degrees the other way, and continued on as if you meant to spin the first time, only now your heart is about ready to explode because it's beating so damn fast.
~People insist it's FWD, you promptly prove them otherwise, and they get reeeeal quiet.
~You have to explain that your car is faster in turns than going straight.
~You think a 1.8 is a large displacement motor.
~You regularly use acronyms like AFM, CAS, NA, OTM, OPG, and YMMV.
~You know what HLA noise is.
~You get out the car when at a drive-through ATM.
~You find yourself driving much later into dusk before turning on your headlights to keep the aerodynamics clean.
~People have to ask you what kind of car you have--after you walk them around it.
~It's quicker to turn the engine back on to roll up the power windows, especially when cold.
~After buying your NA, you spend more time on Miata.net than you ever used to spend watching tv.
~You shop for rims and tires by weight.
~You know what it means to "add lightness".
~200-300hp is BIG horsepower.
~Your significant other understands that this is the other woman and still marries you.
~The only floor jack that fits is an expensive race jack.
~You repeatedly “searchâ€

Jeg kjenner meg også igjen i det meste. Jeg husker da jeg hadde 1991-modellen min, med 1.6-liters motor og 115 hester. Da var jeg litt misunnelig på de med BIG BLOCK, altså 1.8-liter. Nå har jeg 2-liter!! Det må være HEMI-utgaven. Jepp! 8)
