• Gone.

    Circumstances require I sell my house and move to an assisted living
    facility and in the process unload everything except my minivan so...
    the 1992 Miata is gone to a wholesaler for way too little. <sigh>

    I'll miss the help I received here, thanks to all who contributed.

    And where else could I have learned that white Miatas are faster due to
    better photon flow? <G>

    Thanks, all, stay safe and enjoy the ride!

    Dang! I should've known earlier.

    All the best to you!

    Sorry to hear that.

    You cannot argue with science. Needless to say, my 2016, and now only,
    Miata is Arctic White.

    Thanks, all, stay safe and enjoy the ride!

    Best,
    Leon

    Thanks, it's not all bad news, my house sold very quickly for full
    price and that's why I had to wholesale the Miata, it had to be gone
    before escrow closed.

    I got my money's worth out of it in enjoyment when I was still able to
    drive it and if I could still work a clutch I'd have kept it, I think.

    Thanks, Mazda. (And MGB and Lotus too.)

    Ditto to Mazda, also Triumph TR3, Singer SM roadster and the little
    cutie that won me the majority of my rally and gymkhana trophies,
    Morris Minor 1000 convertible!

    Somehow, a Buick Terraza minivan with a mobility lift in the back just
    isn't as fun to drive but now it's my only car, it's the one that I
    need. <SIGH> With handling almost as good as a 1947 Nash with bad
    shocks, reliability almost as good as a Yugo and performance almost
    equal to a Trabant, what's not to love? <G>

    But it hauls me and my scooter so I love it... I guess.
