Great video Gavin! I currently own a 1999 (NB1) Miata, and owned a 1992 (NA) back in the mid 1990s. A few comments for you: (1) if you enjoy the car, and can afford to keep it as a second car, do so. I've had ~35 cars over the past 34 years, and selling my 1992 Miata was my one regret. This led me to embark on a 3 year search (2015-2018) culminating in my purchase of my 1999. I sold my 1992 after heavily modifying it for the track, and then purchasing a Porsche 944 also for track use; since that time I've owned a Boxster, an early 911, and currently a 997.2S... but I still wanted a Miata again. (2) upgrades tires - I replaced the cheap non-name tires with an inexpensive set of Dunlop summers with a 420 treadwear rating - not stickies. Having less stick means lower limits, which means more fun at lower speeds. I did recently change my wheels to 7.5" wide vs the 6.0" factory 15s, and this improved responsiveness greatly. suspension - this summer, after extensive research and some internet debate, I installed Koni Yellow shocks, Tein S-tech springs, and FCM sport bump stops. Unless you are going to spend big $$$ on premium coilovers (that you don't need unless you track extensively) I recommend either this setup or the similar Flyin' Miata package. My car sits about 1" lower, rides very comfortably, doesn't bottom out (and I live in an area with rough, winter-damaged roads). I was originally intending to install aftermarket swaybars, but I'm not sure that I want/need that.

The NB was the first car I bought two years ago. The car was owned for 13 years by a car mechanic who took good care of it and I gave the car to my mother because I didn't had a driving license at the time and wasn't planning to get one. Corona changed everything and I made my license and got a Volkswagen up!, a fun little city car with only 59 bhp.... perfect to learn stick. I live in Germany in the Eifel, with fun twisty narrow country roads and the NB is made for it. It's a normal 1.6 in silver, without any collector's value... which means I can change some things on the NB without losing much value. And for me the 110 hp is enough, most roads are limited to 50, 70 or 100 km/h and in that range the car is so much fun. My mother is retired, she loves sports cars and is not angry with me if I modify it a bit.

Keep it like you said as a 2nd car. I had a 91 for 2 years and sold it. I always regretted that decision. I now own an 04 LS. Never gonna sell it. My 11 year old asked me if she could have it when she turns 16. Nope! Miata is mine for life.

I had friends and neighbors asking me if I would ever sell the car even strangers asking how much I bought it for 😂. It was taken great care of. I bought my NB from a local Miata only dealership. It is an automatic though so I got it for cheaper for that reason. Don’t plan on doing any crazy modifications on it, just a roll bar for safety. I like my little guy bone stock.

It’s funny, we both have similar stories. I bought my 03 about 6 months ago. About 2 hours away from home, new to stick, had a few nerve racking hiccups with the cruise control. I payed about the same for mine with 145k on it, although it came with a factory matched hardtop (garnet red).

Also, my car had excessive wind noise with the soft top that it wasn’t with the hardtop. You can adjust the soft top latches, but I actually fixed it by pulling the door panels out and bumping up the height of the windows when they’re rolled up. Something to try if that’s ever an issue 👍

I got my 88 Toyota truck in 2019 and learned manual on that. this year I bought a 2000 Miata in Sacramento and registered it in Nevada. Also this video popped up at my 6 month anniversary

I saw a silver one posted, a 2003. For $3500, really nice condition. Gone in two hours. I messaged the dude and he was like, "Someones already coming down from Cleveland to get it." It's funny cause when I bought a Imola Yellow VW GTI last summer it was like the first time I drove stick. Only spent an hour with a manual. I got to drive the thing home. It was a bit scary. I stalled it almost immediately haha. But it was a cool experience I was like, learning as I went. I frickin miss the thing. I had to sell it to catch up on some bills. I really wanted to keep it. I finally got some proper seats for it and a back seat and a guy drove by and was like, 'You selling that?" and that was it. It was gone. I'm definitely getting a Miata come spring. I'm hoping I'll be able to find a clean NB2, sometime in February. I'm gonna try to find one right before the tax returns come out so the prices are down. Cause in Ohio, no ones looking for a convertible when its 10F outside. I ended up buying an 2019 STi last October when I was making more money then took a pay cut in January, after a few months, so the payments were a bit much. Also I was tired of getting 20mpg so I traded it in for 2018 Audi A4 Premium Plus. I got an auto so. Right now I have no manual car and it's boring. I love the Audi though for road trips, commuting and such. It does a lot of things well and it's super comfy, not very slow (about 5.2 to 60) and it gets 36mpg on the highway cause of the 7th gear. But it's not exactly a drivers car. It took me a few months to figure out rev matching and the timing and such but once you've driven one manual for awhile you can drive like any manual really. We have a lot of nice country roads out here where I live so excited to have something I can enjoy on the backroads. Doesn't have to be fast, just something fun to drive and take everything in.

Alright this car is a magnet will get it tmr thank you for the 2 min review I love it

Nice video, I just bought a NB1 after test driving my friends NB2 who just had it for about a year. I bought it in Germany and I live in Italy because they are about half the price there so I kinda have your same situation with the registration fees. Mine is dark green with black interior, can’t wait do drive it and finally upgrade from my front wheel drive 70 horsepower Alfa Romeo

Yup, the miatas gets you girls. That's all i needed from this 😭

I have 2001 NB-6spd and I heard you comment about idle and stalling issues that occur infrequently. IMO, experience tells me you maybe dealing with a cam positioning sensor. This sensor is hard to pin down regarding diagnostics (won't show up) and these things may last for years until it finally fails. The sensor wires for the attachment are engine bay dirty causing your intermittent problem and/or the sensor itself may eventually need replacement. I replaced and haven't looked back...

In the UK you are not allowed to drive a manual gear car unless you have a manual licence, people with an automatic licence are restricted just to autos.

Ive had my 02 for 4 years now, i regret buying this car simply because anything else i drive is not even drivable anymore and nothing gives me the any similar feel to my miata, whether its an suv, a bmw, a japanese car, any sedan or whatever i hate driving it. Not to mention co workers compliment on it a lot and wanna go for a drive thinking its a ferrari. It's an absolutely beautiful car with an amazing driving experience that very few cars can match, very reliable, left me stranded a few times but that was simply because i needed cam sensors replaced but other than that it has never let me down.

My first 6 months with an NB. Front brakes seized. Front wheel bearings went. Clutch release bearing went. Water pump got stuff. Drivers window dropped. Exhaust got stolen 😂

@GavinRemme

I haven’t spun out, but I have slid before in a roundabout on new asphalt in heavy rain. It just requires you to be paying attention and know how to react if it does happen. I would not recommend it to someone who texts and drives a lot, is distracted, etc. Having tires with good wet performance will probably affect this a lot too, which mine probably aren’t the best.

If you buy out of state it's always good to get it appraised. Same thing happened to me with my nb. I needed to pay the tax on the KBB which was $10,000...so it would have come out to around $500 just for the registration. I ended up getting it appraised for $4000 so only ended paying way less. Also they gave me the hardest time about my rear side markers. On the nb they are just reflectors, not lights. He failed me at first and I had to take 30 minutes to explain to three guys how they were never lights and they are never going to be lights 😂 couple google search's later and we passed.
