I always wanted to have a retro-inspired NB. I started to modify my Brilliant Black NB8C, but couldn't decide what to do with the Mazdaspeed seats I loved. I really wanted to use a pair of imported seats with separate head restraints and the parchment interior that I'd bought. The mahagony wood trim, I thought, would really add a touch of class too.
Two weeks ago, I decided to buy another NB, a 2003 in Garnet Red. It couldn't have been further from a retro looking MX-5 if it tried. It was fitted with 17" Mazdaspeed wheels, a Sparco racing seat, shorty console with extended shifter, a very loud Car Make Corns muffler and loads of other racer parts. These will either be transferred over to Sooty, my black Nb or sold to provide funds for Woody's transformation. Clearly, it is the colour that sealed the deal for me.
