The Miata

Cute Japanese convertible that's a rip-off of the Lotus Elan. Tino says the Miata looks like a "bar of soap on wheels." This didn't keep him from buying one. We have a red 1993 in the family. Another quote from Tino about his car, "they come in two colors: Red and NotRed." While we both like the car and enjoy driving it in good weather, the whole car buying experience was a nightmare. I can't recommend Kline Nissan in Springfield, VA, and I'd flat out warn you away from any dealership with the name "Rosenthal" on it in Virginia.
