[Elbow]

I can drift my little Miata very easily ^ like Ran said the short wheelbase is tough but still fairly easily done.

i think miatas are going to become more popular as people realize that FWD is FTL. it wont be as bad as the civic or 240 (i hope) but im sure they will get close.

i miss mine already, but im lovin the e30

The whole stigma about Miatas being "chick cars" is exactly why they will never be the "next Civic." I bet ricers are too concerned with looking girly, so they'll stay away from Miatas. Instead, they'll get Scion tCs.

THAT'S RIGHT, I SAID IT: The Scion tC is the new Civic. FWD, underpowered, overhyped, and cheap enough for anybody with a steady income to buy. Especially in the next 4-5 years as they get way cheaper, you'll see more and more of them riced out.

I'm with you on this because the Scion have a dealer backing with aftermarket parts for the cars.

It depends on how far along you are in the game. The 240's are dying now that the new bandwagon is time attacks. As already stated the Miata's are about the cheapest and best performing segway into this. All you need is a first gen, some low ebay springs and a roll bar and you're a real racer. lol It will become the new civic in much the same way the 240's have. Its a much better car than the civics and they never made as many so it won't be the same in numbers but there's already plenty of people who have no idea what they're doing but still trying anyways. I personally have stayed ahead of that trend and I've done plenty of Miatas and now I'm on to the BMW world too. My E30 is well underway and the blasphemy is already in the works, SR20 in an E30 FTMFW. Cheap speed at its finest.
