So I took the plunge. Last week I went against my instinct and I bought a 1993 Mazda Miata. But why did I hand over my man card and buy this "girls car", you might ask? Well I'll tell you why. I bought it because I'm monumentally sick of driving "compact cars" like my wife's Elantra and the 3 previous Corollas I've owned. I'm sick of driving to work and school and to the grocery store in a car that's so boring I feel like I'm watching re-runs of 60 minutes. But you see this created a huge dilemma because while I'm sick of suffering from car depression I also don’t have a fat wallet that enables me to drop big bills on the new Mustang Shelby GT500 I’ve been lusting after. And while I could have purchased an old 5.0 or even a 300ZX I drive a lot so I need a car that’s not going to break down every other Tuesday. So there you have it. And while I’ve taken a lifetime’s worth of crap for buying this car in the past week alone, I still don’t regret it. Hit the jump for more...
