  OK, since the answer is always Miata, it had me thinking about what the percentage of past and current Miata owners are on this board. Put me down for 5.

  In order of appearance: '90, '91, '01, '91 and '99.

  3 so far - one an 89, a 92? Eunos Roadster V-Spec (BRG) and a 91 Eunos that had been badly turbo'd by the PO.

  Sanity is vastly overrated.

  Had a '94 for about 3 years, then about 2 years later we (wife and I) bought our '99 and have had that for 2-3 years now. I feel bad that it hardly gets driven but whenever I mention to my wife that we could se... "No, we aren't selling the Miata". haha, she loves it but never drives it...go figure.

  I have owned my '92 since 1998.

  Yes, we now have signatures.

  1996 base package that was built as a track rat / toy by the PO. 108,000 miles, 239 rwhp, I love it to pieces. Owned it for about 8 months now.

  Only issue is it's a '96, not '94-5, so emissions inspections are PITA thanks to it being OBDII non-compliant. Luckily I have another year before that pain train arrives.

  Junior Brown is my hero.

  '05 Mazdaspeed - bought it new. Plan on keeping it unless I can replace it with a Lotus.

  5 total, 3 current.

  90, Classic red, owned for 12 years, sold to son-in-law.

  92 Black and Tan, now has Ford 5.0

  97 Black, sold but kept hard top

  99 Black, 2009 Challenge car.

  95 Black, Complete Turd! Getting restoration and LS1 conversion.

  I don't have a thing for Black, it is just that every great deal that I find, seems to be on black cars!

  Previously owned an 01 SE. And I don't miss it at all.

  Better to be a racer for a moment than spectator for a life time.
