![10 Tips For Buying YOUR Perfect Miata | Mazda MX5 Miata Buying Advice [NA and NB]](/img/n.gif)
I’ve been crushing on the NB for over 5 years now lol, I’m about to graduate college, will start job hunting. Once the money is rolling in, I’m going to look into finally owning one
Heck yeah dude! That wait is gonna be worth it, Miatas are so much fun and I'm excited for you to get one! 😎
Bro you're personality is lit. Your plushies and the exploding kittens in the trunk. That card game is hella fun lmoa.
This has to be one of the best compliments I've ever received dude thanks! 🥹 Haha but yes I do love my plushies and exploding kittens is such a fun game with to play with friends! Haha!
A friendly tip for you for future videos would be to make a script, you repeated and reiterated yourself many times. Aside from that I think you've got lots of potential.
THANK YOU!! I really appreciate all feedback and will definitely keep that in mind making videos moving forward! Also thank you that last comment means a lot!
the added “mad sus” is crazy 😭. Great vid 🎉
HAHAHA!! 🤣 I had to call myself out on that one. Not even I would let that one slide 😂 also THANK YOU!! I really appreciate it 🤝😎
Nice video dude, super informative.
THANK YOU I appreciate all feedback! I'm glad it helped 🤝
subscribed can't wait to see this cars journey
THANK YOUUU!!! The drifting is coming VERY SOON! So hyped to have you along for the journey 😎🤝
Short answer: yes.
I daily my track built NB2, I spend 6+ hrs on the road every single day doing ubereats/doordash with it. Cup holder problem is an easy fix, they sell attachments for the back of the glove box, or on the side of the center console. Or just do what I do and drive carefully with cup tray on the passenger floor lmfao.
Not much space at all, but if you're alone, you got the trunk, you have behind the seats if you put the top up, and the passenger side.
For size, I'm 6 ft and I don't really fit comfortably stock. But, that's an easy fix. An aftermarket steering wheel that's smaller than stock for leg room and seat lowering brackets or a foamectomy.
I've gone through a few cars and I've never loved a car as much as I love my NB2.
Yes it's small, people don't see you, etc. but at the end of the day, you're having a fucking blast driving this thing and none of those problems matter anymore lmfao
They're also extremely reliable and easy to work on. Once you drive one, you're part of a whole new sub-community of the car community. Every miata driver acknowledges you on the streets, and even the bikers do (at least in my town).
Bottom line, buy one right now wtf are you waiting for
Miatas are definitely some of the best cars yes! And there definitely are some aftermarket fixes to some of these issues as well this is true! To some issues there are not and to some people this wouldn't be the best car however I HIGHLY recommend to anyone that can have one to give it a shot! They really are amazing and so is the community as you mentioned! Love the Miata community 🤝😎
You should do uber too. Picking up people on lowered coilovers would be funny af
When in doubt, Miata
This is indeed true 😎😂
Very inconvenient daily wise but so good
SUCH A GOOD CAR! but yes not always the best daily I agree!
I haven’t checked in a while, but it used to be that you could get in the HOV-3 lanes with 2 people in the Miata and other 2-seaters.
Hmm really? I'll have to look in to that! I've actually never heard about that at all 👀
I was actually in the market of buying an NC. Then I took a step back, thought about my other options, and settled for a 2nd gen mr2.
MR2's are really nice! Hope you get one, I always wanted one. One day 😎🤝
@@immoggle i got the car a while back with my dad, it needed work so we're restoring the whole thing. Im looking forward to your plans for your NB mate.
Sorry I misread your original comment but daaang that's super cool man! Do you have any content on the restoration? I'd love to watch it! Also thank you! I'm glad to you along for the journey my friend!
@immoggle I do plan on posting like an image slideshow of like each phase of restoration, then an actual drive when it's ready, but i could show you the progress on discord probably.
Yeah sounds awesome! Or like IG, Tiktok
Yes
This is factual lol. Also nice Miata!! 👀
One needed correction, the 6th speed on the 6-speed gearbox is actually a little bit shorter than the 5th speed on the 5-speed gearbox. So the RPMs when cruising on the highway are actually a little bit higher than on the 5-speed. The way you should think is that the 6-speed actually adds one more gear INBETWEEN the 5 gears of the 5-speed gearbox. Also it is stronger internally making more robust for turbo applications.
Really? Hmm.. I've owned both and in 6th gear on the highway I'm sitting at much lower RPM than on the 5 speed. You're definitely correct about holding more power in turbo applications but at least in my experience the RPM is much lower at highway speed 🤔
@@immoggle It might be true, because of the final drive difference. I am from Europe so i don't know which versions miatas were shipped with. But if the final drive is the same on the 5-speed as in the 6-speed then my comment holds true. Now if you pair the 3.6 final drive with the 6-speed of course the RPM would be lower when cruising at highways. But if i am not mistaken the 3.6 was a rare option. On my miata, i 've destroyed my 5-speed (couldn't handle the torque from a quick spooling garrett2554r), so i found a 6-speed and there was about a 100rpm increase in 6th gear.)
From what I understand the Miatas in the European market were different and even came with the 1.6L engine for a lot longer instead of the 1.8L that the US market ones came with. Mine came with a 1.8L VVT in it which is pretty uncommon. I'm not sure what the final drive is on my car but the RPMs are pretty low in 6th gear on the freeway going 80 compared to my 5 speed NB
"*mad sus*" xD
LMAOO I was watching it back when editing the video and I was like AHHHH noo that sounded hella weird 🤣
Now try a miata cart its good
What's a Miata cart? 👀
The video was good but the video title isn't good, Miata Review would've been better, since you didn't talk that much about the upsides and downsides, like how you drive etc. but mainly how it is to live with a miata
I can see your point! I will take this into consideration with creating titles in the future. Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it and hope you liked the video overall!
good OEM headlights for the NC are 350 each D:
cheap my butt
SHEEESSHH that's pricey! I've never owned an NC before but that sounds pretty expensive :(
all cars are meant to be drifted especially jdms
I agree! I CAN NOT WAIT to start learning to drift in this thing and I'm going to document the whole journey here!
Not for me. Neither my shoulders nor legs fit. They are quicker than you'd think though
Yeah I have a couple of buddies who also don't fit so I get you! And right they're not too slow if you have a 1.8 it's not TOO bad lol
Car community is garbo
It's definitely different than it used to be yup
A couple grocery bags- and Exploding Kittens...
The essentials of course hahaha! 🤣
