Hum not exactly a variety in the demographic present....
young whipper snappers already gobbled up the BRZ fanboi cars
I know the saying is don't judge a book by it's cover. Yet, I still can't help but to think those cars are going to live a life of weekend point A to B driving, getting a bit of full throttle in a straight line, and the tires never making any noise with any discernible amount of steering input. All I see is just, dull, boring, safe drivers.
I feel like if you aren't driving a Miata a little like an asshole, you're missing the point. Because lets be honest, a good "enthusiastic" drive breaks a few laws. I just don't see Miatas as cruisers... unless they're automatics.
I mean, maybe it's a good thing for when those cars get resold at lower prices to younger buyers. They'll still be in good enough condition that they can take being beaten on like a professional athlete's spouse and still look just as good afterwards.
Maybe some would look at what I'm saying as asinine or childish or something, but the Miata is a sports car. It should live the life of one. And some people just aren't sports car drivers, even if they own one.
I've owned a Miata since '91, but I have never tracked or autoX any of my Miatas, so I can't say what that feels like. So throwing gravel in a hairpin turn while running the Devil's Triangle or squalling tires on the TN-85 going up Wilder Mtn. is not " "enthusiastic" enough? How about taking on the Dragon at 6am on a Friday or Saturday morning? This is an old " Whipper Snapper" that likes to cruise from point A to Point B, but I like some curves and twists in between the points, and my "Cool Whip" is called Rooster- HA HA.
Surely one of those cars is now shrink-wrapped and sitting in a garage in the San Diego area, waiting to be uncovered in 20 years to be sold for $50k.

Yep that to.
Launch editions are already going up in value too!
Less than a mile from dealership, rear ended and pushed into a car ahead.
