2 with my name on the title, 2 that were acquired for parts, all 1991 to 1996 models.

Possibly going for number 3, (or number 5 depending if you count the parts cars), next year, we'll see.....

I claim 3 1/2!

My original was a 2003 Emerald Mica. It was brutally murdered in August

2004.

Next, I treated myself to a 2004 Black Cherry - with the sport suspension package - and I am proud to say I never got a ticket or drove off the side of mountain, even on a blind hairpin.

I traded the Black Cherry for a 2008 Copper Red sport earlier this year. There were...... problems. Problems. That ended up being my 1/2 Miata because I only owned it (name on title!) for a couple of weeks. (By the way, it drove like a marshmallow.)

The dealer (Beasley in Georgetown) made it right by replacing the 1/2 Miata with another one and since I specifically wanted Copper Red, they upgraded me at no additional cost from a sport to a touring with a sport suspension and a comfort package (which are the features I had on my Black Cherry.)

I'm about to hit 2,000 on this zoom - there are big pluses to the NB that I miss, and big pluses to the NC which I am enjoying. As long as I'm driving a Miata, I'm going to be smiling regardless.
