Everyone remembers the original Miata as pure. They're right, and that's the problem. Most of what people call purity in a 1990 MX-5 is a list of things Mazda hadn't gotten around to adding yet. That makes it the best Miata to drive and the worst one to romanticize.

The NA Miata runs a 1.6L B6 DOHC 16-valve inline 4 making 116 hp and 100 lb-ft, a five speed manual and rear wheel drive with an open differential, double wishbone suspension at both ends, 185/60R14 tires, no ABS and no stability control, all at 2,182 lbs. The review covers the shifter, steering feel, trail-brake rotation, top down and top up visibility, and the NA Miata owner problems that decide whether people keep these cars: the cold-start top-end tick, the 1990 to early 1991 short-nose crank, clogged soft-top drain tubes and rocker rust, and the foamectomy headroom mod for tall drivers. It places the original against the NB, NC and current ND Mazda MX-5 Miata, and makes the case for the NA as the cheapest way to learn to carry speed instead of buying it. ——————————————————————— // MY AMAZON STORE with my favorite things for drivers https://www.amazon.com/shop/influencer-4cc174af (this is an affiliate link) /// MERCH Pick up some sweet merch in our store! https://brian-makse-shop.fourthwall.com/ /// SUBSCRIBE Subscribe NOW to Brian Makse's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=brianmakse /// SOCIAL Instagram: http://Instagram.com/BrianMakse X: http://X.com/BrianMakse Facebook: http://Facebook.com/BrianMakseOfficial Spotify: https://sptfy.com/brianmakse Link In My Bio: https://makse.com/linkinbio/ /// MORE About Brian: http://makse.com/about /// THE PODCAST I'M LISTENING TO Real AF With Andy Frisella https://andyfrisella.com/blogs/realaf-podcast /// THE MUSIC I'M LISTENING TO Adam Miller https://www.youtube.com/AdamMillerGuitar Be sure to let us know what you think about this video and smash the subscribe button if you haven’t already!
