I'm thinking about getting an early 90's miata for daily driving and auto-x duties.

What years are best? ie.. engine, suspension, weight.
Common problems? engine, suspension, body.
Budget would be $4k max.

Any good forums to lurk around and find out more information of these cars.

I'd get a '94+ car. The BP (1.8L) is a nice upgrade over the B6 (1.6L).

yea, thats really the only significant difference until they hit the next generation

 

lol. miatas are girl cars.

 

I know.....cant wait til they all pile in.lolololol

 

i stand corrected.

 

Where have you been? People have been doing them up like that for years...

 

thanks for the sites. I just did a quick search on the miata.net and I guess the best 90's miata to get is the 94-95. No odbll and it comes with a 1.8. Time to start searching.

 

ive never really been a fan of em.

i drove a few and was unbelievably cramped... and im 5'6 and weigh 140.

 

You must need a lot of space. I'm 5'10" and weigh 220 lbs and was just fine.
