What do you mean by suck? The miata feels very solid and smooth at high speeds. Power wise, it's actually pretty peppy in 5th gear. Over bumps and stuff there is a little cowl shake here and there but thats like typical when you own a convertible.

 

- Miata if you fit and want something that is also fun to drive. I owned a 1994 Miata and it was fine on the highways. It's only down side was it had a pretty big blind spot if you had the soft top up.
- Civic coupe if you want something with a little more space and maybe a tad more comfortable.

 

Suck as in they're 2200 lbs and driving by semis can be very scary.

 

My car actually weighs 2100 lbs. h: Yeah I guess it can be when they don't see you. Otherwise, I have no problem passing them up and stuff.

 

If you're driving in NY 120 miles per day, I'd have to suggest something a bit more all weather than a Miata.

$6000?

93-96 Prelude

 

For under $6k, he can definitely get a miata with a hardtop. The cool thing is with the miata, the soft top and be safely tucked away while using the hardtop but some people prefer to remove the soft top with frame, completely.

 

I could always drive the TSX in bad weather, or just work from home like i usually do on snowy days. I'd just drive the TSX all the time but if I do this I wouldn't want to put 25,000+ miles on it a year. I mean staright highway I get 30+mpg's although it does take super :happysad:

yeah I saw a few for under $5 with a hardtop included. :rick:

 

did you get a new job or have you always had to commute this far?

 

definately get a late model civic 5spd

 

5th gen accord for teh win!
