1993 Mazda Miata
This was my very first car, purchased from my uncle Terry in . It was a tidy California NA that came already set up with a bunch of period-correct upgrades and a great “driver’s car” feel. Light, responsive, and endlessly fun — this Miata is a core memory.

Notes
Sadly, this car is lost to time. I’ve spent years trying to track it down — the last known registration showed it in Clarksville, AR — but I’ve never found a strong lead to buy it back.
