lol. I never had any of these “there is a feather on my fender my car’s epic balance is destroyed” issues. Have to add that I agree with Paul. The NB has a nicer overall feel to the car. ---

> [@longuyen88](#): > > paul why’d you sell your 94? pm me details bro! Wife and I bought a clean '90 from her friend for cheap. The black one (95) was being dismantled and returned to as stock as possible. Was gonna be too much money and a pain in the ass. Some guy in NF had a '88 VW cabriolet that he was willing to straight trade. So that’s what we did. This new Miata looks awesome. Huge upgrades all over except power numbers. Interior looks incredible too. ---
