    And your car looks great. Really like the upgrade to white side marker lights.
    Thank you for the welcome!

    I've made a lot of small cosmetic mods, because I'm a perfectionist: Black windscreen frame, dark tail lights...

    Oh, I was born in Puerto Rico. We all have Spanish blood, among others! ;) Have not been to Spain, yet. But it's in the plans.

    Nive to read about your roots, and let me recommend you visiting Spain some day, but you have to take into account that Spain is bigger than some people spect, and has very different landscapes, cultures, weathers, and also languages!

    Let me know if I can help you with some advice!

    Yes, here is plenty of nice roads and scenerys! I love to drive my Miata in these nice windi roads!

    Yes, in most of European countries, the NC is sold in both 1.8 and 2.0, but sadly, they try to sell the 2.0 engine as a "luxury sport car", (at a crazy price), so, the NC 1.8 is best sold. For example, in Spain, you can buy a 1.8 PRHT for 22.000 Euros, but the 2.0 PHRT costs 32.000 Euros...

    Though I do have plans to visit Spain, it won't be anytime soon. As for Spains size, I have driven accross the U.S. four times. I don't think criscrossing Spain will be that difficult... Not that I would want to spend a vacation just driving! Also about the languages... My great grandma didn't learn spanish until moving to Puerto Rico. She spoke Baque and Catalan.
