the front looks better 
damnit such cool cars.
and it's almost May.. that's the time every year that I go test drive a Miata.. and each year I get closer to trading my car for one, even though my car becomes more modded each year so it'd be a bigger loss.
The first year, I just looked at a few and talked with salesmen.. the next year, I test drove two.
Last may, I ran numbers on 97 with 40k miles and it would have been an even trade for my 02.5 P5 with at the time 55k miles.. I had the title in hand, ready to sign it over. I decided to not make such a rash decision and mulled it over that night.. didn't end up going back.
I'm afraid that if I go look at one this year I won't be able to stop myself. Luckily, I left the title with my mom so that I can't make such quick decisions about the fate of my car anymore

nah, you can use the stock latches. i've got a '99 w/ a hardtop for the 90 model.
now, the 2002 (and perhaps some newer model years) had a recall for latches that would eventually fail... so if you didn't get the repalcement latches, it would be a good idea to get them before driving any serious distance w/the hard top on... dont want your $1000 top flying off at speed. (not that you'd want your soft top to do that either, granted... )

I've been thinking about getting a used miata...it would be so nice to put the top down during the summer!
