Sorta.

My budget is really fit for something like at least 5 year old honda civic or toyota camry.

BUT
My uncle is talking me into getting a little sports coupe.

He offered to help me get it too (he already gave me a thousand toward a car).

And today I went to see a 2000 Mazda Miata MX5
Holy crap I'm in love. I want this car so bad.


It needs to be cleaned up and get a little preventative maintenance done.
But I really wanna get it. And my uncle wants me to get it too.

:D

Willing to negotiate.
They need a bigger car to start a family and they wanna get rid of this thing fast.

My dad has a Miata.

I hate riding in it. I don't even want to dare getting behind the wheel.

23-28mpg

I just can't go crazy Racer X and rev it up all the time, hahaha.

But the tank is only ten gallons which is fine cuz I only need it to go to school 3 days a week and to work (a block away) four nights a week.

Mmm, your a complete idiot.

Anyways I would say miata=gay car, but your a girl so it doesn't matter.

Depending on condition, go for it

In a country where the average motor is a 1.2 L with 25 horsepower, sure it's a fuel sucker.. but.. To us, it's nothing.

IIRC there has never been a true miata or MX5 if you will, coupe.

Light small RWD is what fun is all about.
