TreasureCoastMiata

Treasure Coast Miata was started in 2010 to provide a low cost alternative for those DIY’rs and Spec Miata racers looking for quality used parts for their Miata’s. They have grown into the performance upgrade and Spec Miata construction and support business. At Treasure Coast Miata (TCM) they pride themselves on always putting the customer 1st and being extremely responsive with customer inquiries, questions and shipping. They also perform service using their used parts or your new parts. They can also source parts for you such as, suspension, exhaust, engine swaps etc. http://treasurecoastmiata.com/

IRTBs, Turbos, & Motor Swaps, Oh My!

There was so many different tuning styles among the three generations of a single car, it was really quite something to see. From the super clean bone stock 95 Merlot, The slammed Blue NA on white wheels, to the NB Drag Miata, to the V8 Swapped NCs sitting behind the V8 Roadsters booth, each Miata an expression of their owner and each one was cool in its own unique way. There was really something for everyone, if you wanted to see custom paint there were plenty, or certain wheels, there were tons, or a certain type of rollbar or seat it was there. From IRTBs, Turbos, Superchargers, LS-Swaps, 5.0L-swaps this meet had it ALL !!!

Miata owners as far as the eyes can see!!!

This photo give you a good idea of just how many folks attended, this was around 4PM after quite a few had already left, but still shows there was a good amount of folks at this event.

The other thing about this meet was the quality of the people who were there. Everyone was friendly and cool, patient and appreciative, smiles on every face from the youngest to the oldest. The participants make the meet what it is, just as much as the cars do. There was so much to see and do and with all the Miatas it was a LOT to take in for one day!

Those are some great pics!

Also, Thank you to everyone I borrowed photos from , I got stuck behind the booth the entire day, so I never even got a chance to look at all those Miatas.

[— Agent☣Orange —]

I wasn't stuck behind a booth and still didn't get to see everything.

[Spinnywhoosh]

Great post! 10/10 would bang. I'll share the hell out of it in a bit.

[Spinnywhoosh]

I wasn't stuck behind a booth and still didn't get to see everything.

Damn Yella, I was lookin all over for you. I still have your number, I shoulda gave you a ring. Saw Minuteman at the end near the raffle tent. Oh well, next time!

Overall it was an amazing event. I think maybe considering a two-day plan could be pretty beneficial in the future. I know I didn't get to see nearly as much as I wanted to.. SO MUCH TO SEE!!
