Modo co-op: Anyone a member?
I heard Modo now has the Abarth, FRS and Miata in their fleet. Are they automatics or manual? Would love to try either of them with manual.

I don't think one looking for a grocery run would select one of the three I mentioned, not going to haul many groceries in a Miata.
Modo is obviously looking to expand to fleet to offer members a vehicle for "recreation", a drive along the sea-to-sky, etc.

All I can say is I hope they keep on top of tire and brake inspections...

The Miata is an auto according to folks in the Van Miata group. I was planning on renting one anyways as it's been a couple years since I've driven a Miata and I need to scratch the itch in a way that doesn't cost me $20K and an angry wife.

I really doubt its going to be manual. Considering majority of the population cant even drive a manual. Can you imagine how many clutch jobs they will have to do from ppl "learning" on their cars.

I'm imagining the number of people complaining to customer support that the car has 3 pedals and the car won't start
