    Hello from sunny southern California!

    Hola hola!
    I fell in love with these great little cars playing Gran Turismo as a kid. I purchased my first Mx-5 back in October 13' it was stock other than some sparco ns2 replica wheels and some mysterious side skirts... haha
    What it looks like now.





    Sometime last year I saw a beautiful young lady getting out of a dreamy 91' SE BRG.... I approached her and asked if she was ever willing to sell it. She told me it was her baby and she planned on keeping it. I had my doubts so I left my number on her window..... Later in January this year I got a text from her, water pump died and it was in my possession the very next morning
    #3920 of 4000 LAST 100! This one will remain stock for now....




    Oh and I also have one of these my dream car. Bought it while I was drunk and I do not regret it one bit. True story.
    Yes it is rotary powered and will remain that way.

    Nice collection you have! An FC will probably be my next project, too.
