A few weeks ago, Scott drove to a giant Mazda Miata gathering at the infamous Laguna Seca race track. As he pulled his car up and parked, an older gentlemen came up to his car. Scott over heard the older gentlemen say to a fellow companion: "Oh, this car must be here for the car show!" Little did that man know just how wrong he was. He's
A friend of mine sent me a link this morning showing a new MX-5 special edition from Mazda of France. Designed by LK Paris, the concept seems to be capitalizing on the flat black trend, which is apparently alive and well. I'm not sure if the friendly little Roadster is the best candidate for the flat black treatment, but it's an interesting
There's a never a bad time for some Miata content. This car is owned reader Ryan Cote of Florida, and is sporting a Flyin' Miata turbo kit along with supporting exhaust upgrades and some mild suspension work. Although he loves the car, Ryan says that the turbo four probably won't be around for much longer as an LS1 swap is in the cards.
Some of you might remember that when I moved back to the US from Japan last spring, one of the first things I did was pick up a '97 Mazda Miata as weekend toy. I did a few little things to it, like installing a set of SSR MkIII's, but in the end the car ended up spending most of its life gathering dust at my house. So when we relocated down
Hello Speedhunters! I’m Adam Wolf of dusty, deserted New Mexico. The car you’re looking at is Sharka, a 97 NA Miata in the above photo. Yes, I’m a huge dork and name my cars. But when you get to be as close to something or someone as I am to Sharka, it just makes sense have a name. See, I’ve been building Sharka for 10 years
There's this test that I do every time I see a slammed car; I call it the "Chucks" test. Any really low profile shoe will do, but my personal preference has always been a pair of classic, and worn down, Chuck Taylors. Yesterday was the first ever Left Coast Low meet in Santa Barbara, California. Of course, there were plenty of low and
As an old saying goes, it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. I'm not sure who coined the phrase, but in a day of twin turbo sports cars and muscle cars that can reach felony-like speeds in a matter of seconds, those words have never sounded better. Although fast cars are great, there's something wonderful about a
I was browsing one of my favorite forums, ClubRoadster.net the other day when I found a thread about an LS1-powered Mazda Miata drag car out of Mississippi. Now any time you combine a light weight rear-drive car with a powerful V8 the potential for awesomeness arises, but I noticed something about this car that I don't think the builder intended
Perhaps I'm a bit biased as an MX-5 owner myself, but I thought this was pretty cool. As part of the car's 20th anniversary, Mazda is hosting a birthday gathering for European MX-5 owners next month at the 24 Hours of LeMans. 200 owners and enthusiasts from around Europe will be invited to a special gathering and car show alongside the famous
I'm home. Our flight from Japan arrived yesterday at San Francisco and after getting to my family's house here in Fresno, I promptly hit the sack to get some MUCH needed sleep. After getting rested up, I spent most of today was spent running around taking care of bank accounts and other things to get reestablished here in the USA. If you can
