Used Mirages aren't cheap enough yet! So here's my new $1k car (1990 Miata)

[MetroMPG]

I only drove the $\#tbox Miata for about 5 weeks this fall - my 5th season since I got the car. (I typically put it on the road in late summer... fall is my favourite season for a convertible.)

No repairs this year. Last year it needed a thermostat. I replaced the rad in the first year.

Did one fill-up at around 53 MPG.

It's hilarious: getting back into the Mirage after putting the Miata away always feels like the lap of luxury. So quiet and refined! Such a comfortable ride!

I know the feeling. I drove my Delica pretty much almost every day since I bought it in September then switched back to the Mirage this week.
