what's the best upgrade from a miata that feels like a miata (nimble, tiny interior/exterior) but with better quality and power? max budget being $40k
WHaT CaR iS GoOd?
C5 - Pretty easy to upgrade, 330-350hp basic to - 411 hp in the z06, Ls1 is easy to maintain & only requires periodic maintenance with oil change's & new clutch's depending on how you use them. And all for 14-25k
Miata with a turbo
Newer Miata
RX-7 for your daily dose of dorito
S2000
Some sort of KTM X-Bow or similar
literally S2k
no
Lotus exige.
Supercharged Toyota v6
Nimble
Super light
too big
feels gutless below 5k rpm, like my miata
>driving below 5k
I seriously hope you don't do this
i unironically do this
Shit thread, OP just shitting on all suggestions.
Any car that's nimble and small is gunna be either not as good as a miata or over your budget. Stop being a faggot and either turbo your miata, look above 40k or buy secondhand
who said i was only looking for new cars?
I don’t think you realise just how small corvettes actually are physically. You have to see them in person
BMW 135i?
i live in burgerland, i see them all the time and up close too
maybe you don't realize how small miata's are lol
This, externaly maybe, but internally you'd be surprised.
BMW Z3?
Go mini cooper, hear there sport opinion aren't bad if you need a car small enough to fit in your bread box.
I’m in nz and I’ve seen a c6 parked next to an fd before and they looked the same
Although yeah I’m probably forgetting just how tiny miatas are
Captcha: McDrive
Porsche Boxster, way more power, plus you get that sweet mid engined layout
The only true Miata upgrade
Miata -> s2000 -> lotus
From baby’s first small race car to baby’s first “can trick normies into thinking its a super car”
bmw z4 with the 3.0L

or the z3m with the s50
In town I never shift beyond 2nd because of this.
86 twin
>Supercharged Toyota v6

13b miata

>faster miata, same size
your only options are S2000 and Lotuses. fuck off you stupid shitposting fatass
MR2 slightly better quality, similar power
GT86 err
Audi TT Quattro ticks the boxes I guess
Alfa 4c - no luggage space though
Lotus - no luggage space
BMW Z4.
Honda s2k
Porsche Cayman or Boxster The true winner here
>max budget is 40k
a new car would probably be a pretty good miata upgrade
any*
ls swapped miata
best BMW 2 series u can afford
BMW Z3/Z4
Corvettes are long as fuck for 2 seaters. There's a lot of 2+2 seaters the same length. Whole lot of plastic with nothing going on underneath.
How has nobody ITT suggested a Lotus or Cayman?
