    Default Bought a new Limited Edition last night

    All,

    I'm new around here, but I've been driving my '01 Black Miata since 2001, and loved it. Before that I owned a mind-blowing Black Rx7.

    Last night I bought one of the last Limited Editions around, with Red Leather two-tone seats. Paid $28k for it, and traded in the '01. With spring coming, evidently other dealers are calling around trying to locate LE's.

    I'll post some pictures over the weekend.

    I'm amazed how differently this car drives from any of the earlier generations. (that could be good or bad, but I like it) The clutch is a big improvement, with a shorter distance. The ride is closer to a Porsche than what I'm used to in my '01. The power is impressive to me, since I had no mods on my '01.

    The noise levels inside seems a bit better to me, and the extra width is nice.

    I'm trying to get used to the higher seat bolsters, and seat width. That's going to take some time.

    Really nice to see the plate over the shifter showing 1202/3500.

    Of course, there is always this option!

    LINKIE

    From the inception of MME (January 2004), all the resources needed and used to keep this website/forum up and running have been funded by tailchaser. To that end, we are now accepting donations to help pay for all of this. Please note that this is strictly voluntary. The forums will continue to remain free to one and all - and we will avoid banner advertising, pop-ups and other abominations. The spiffy new software the forum is running on is not freeware like the original was, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

    There are three options if you'd like to contribute:

    1. $10 will get you file/picture upload privileges, larger avatar file size, and other goodies for a full year!
    2. $25 will get you a 2 year subscription and a set of MME window decals. Decals will be available for pickup from one of our admins as soon as your payment is verified. If you need them mailed to you, please contact us to make arrangements.
    3. Any amount less than $10 you feel comfortable with - contact us to find out how to send non-standard payments.
    You could be the first NC rocking some MME stickers!
