Nostalgia to the Future Three weeks ago I purchased a new Miata, after being away from sports cars for 25 years. (TR3+BMW 2000ti) Oh how I wish I had gotten back into it sooner. It has been so much fun. I purchased the book last week, finished it and loved it. The book told the story of the early British influence, Triumphs, Healeys, etc, on the design, development and marketing of the Miata, brought it thru 1999. The struggles, hopes, fears of the individuals in the company, and the process of internal competition to ferret out the best car with a very high emphasis on handling and suspe. Great info esrvdb This book is crammed with Miata info and interesting facts. Don't expect great writing, and the format is a bit awkward. But this book is a goldmine of info on special editions and design details for these cars.. Great book for any NA or NB owner Great book for any NA or NB owner. Book tells a LOT of the history of the car and how they refined their prototypes to make the car what it is as it went through development.
Liberally illustrated, this volume discusses and explains design and development; model features; accessories and equipment; production and sales history; technical specs, limited edition models and more.. An invaluable book for anyone who is either an MX-5/Miata owner already, or plans to become one and needs to know precisely what is available among the many model variants
