Wife said no more convertibles. I also don't fit incredibly well into a ND. The Miata is fun, but to get it ready for track I would need quite a few supporting mods (coilovers, BBK [Miata stock Brembos don't hold up that well compared to the tS Brembos as the Miata Brembos use essentially the same rotors and the rear is still sliding caliper/solid disc. BRZ tS Brembos rotors gain over an inch for each end, and have 4 piston/2 piston F/R calipers],
rollbar for certain tracks - this last one is a biggie, and the RF top is not structural)
I would have wanted a ND2 or ND3 and those are still somewhat pricey as well.
