Dan et al: Have to confess that I became a Miata owner last year. Mea culpa. 
Found a pristine 1991 Special Edition, BRG of course that I literally stole. 
One owner with 50K. It is quite well equipped, ac, cd player, leather, 
cruise control, power windows, hard top, etc.  The great thing is that when 
I drive it in the rain with the heater or ac on, wipers going, lights on and 
radio playing I don't blow any fuses and everythings functions all the time 
while returning 36 mpg.  I am not substituting the Miata for my LBCs but it 
is a great daily driver. Starst every time! It was the BRG that sold me 
however. Still prefer my old B when the weather permits.
