1,500 miles completed and now giving it the full beans plus taken it to a couple of meets. Coming from the modded MK3 it feels just as quick, but a fair bit softer. If it was just a fun times car I'd already be shopping for coilovers, but as it's a daily for work the suspension with lowering springs is a great compromise. It handles well, but it's still compliant on motorways and speed bumps. As with every MX5 I've owned it's taken me a while to find a seating position that I like and is comfortable, the big difference in the ND2 being the telescopic wheel making it the best driving position on any MX5 I've owned. Dead happy with it and think it's gets better looking the more I look at it, the exhaust is starting to liven up bit as well now. Anyway, enough waffle here's the pics.

Red certainly was a good choice.

Looking good Pleased to hear it's not just me that finds getting the perfect seating position difficult, lol. I swear the NA drivers' seat is offset to the left of the wheel by about an inch - it's really annoying! Wasn't someone on here getting their interior 3D scanned?? I have thought that would be a good way to create a subframe that corrects the issue. Anyway, I hope you can get some more miles in - I think the design is really starting to look better with age now.

I thought Soul Red was nice, but the revised Crystal version is even tastier š
