So, as we are all Celica owners, we all have the same baseline perspective to build on. What do you as 6GCers think about the Mazda MX-5? Would you consider trading your Celica for an MX-5 (specifically the NB - 2nd gen), and if you did, what would you consider to be the pros and cons of trading to an MX-5?
Thanks for the input. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

^ That's exactly the plan, keep the Celica as a DD and have the Miata as a fun car that'll see autocross and maybe track time, and will also allow me to learn mechanics.
It'd see a turbo kit instead of an LSx conversion. ![]() This post has been edited by SwissFerdi: Dec 24, 2010 - 2:09 PM -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Or I would actually spend the time/money and get an SR20 in there. -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09
