Get a Honda or Toyota for the same money and you will still have the durability or reliability but keep driving the Miata for those days when you feel like a hooligan. Hell, you are stuck on the 110 anyway, so how fast can you go? If you do get the 318 and get stranded on the side of the road call me, I will come get you and buy you a couple of beers at the same time.
Thanks!

I have a NA (1996) Miata, wife drives the Hyundai. Unfortunately we don't have room or budget for a 3rd car. (when I was a bachelor I drove the Hyundai to work and had a 944 for the weekends... but those days are gone).

Like the bumper sticker says "driver carries no cash... he is married"

So 30 mpg is a must and around $6-7K, just trying to sneak a fun ride in with those numbers.
