So... you want to sell the perfect budget motorsports car with a great chassis, tons of real aftermarket support, not to mentions legions of truely knowledgeable enthusiasts in all facets of motorsports, be it autocross, HPDEs, drifting, for a overpriced jdm fan boy car with limited travel up front and where the aftermarket is diluted with crappy ass parts made to appeal to the wagon jumpers and jdm whores?

I have an S14, I like it, but if you have a miata you're not missing out much. If something ever happens to my s14 (knock on wood), I'm getting a miata. Great suspension choices (try finding REAL dampers for a 240, not the Japanese low and stiff compression damping all up in your ass crap), great/cheap wheel/tire selections, really one of the most popular budget motorsports cars in mainstream america, without the unwanted attention from thieves.

I've had the thought, but this s14 is special to me, been with me for a while, and I have put too much money and sweat into it, I know just about every quirk about this car. My point was, if you already have a miata, don't sell it to buy a 240.

i agree miata > 240, s14 feels like ur driving a bathtub
