The padding got taken out of the seat because when there are 2 drives, one who's 5'5" and one who's like 6'2" it makes things a little difficult, but the seats were super padded to begin with.
As for it leaking, I've had no problems with that at all, and, unfortunately right now, it's not garage kept, so it is exposed to quite a bit of rain here recently.

It was bought from a friend about 3 months ago, so, no. Not paid off yet.
We still have 2 other cars that are being paid for too, but those will be done come about 5 months, and 10 months respectively.

I only pull the "children" card, because 80% of the populous here is... well, Anyways. "Women cant drive" doesn't apply if you can drive a 6 speed. I rest my case :XD
ANYWAYS..
I really don't take it out in the rain much if i don't have to. A:I dislike driving it with the top up (Top down or GTFO) and B: It REALLY likes to bring its tail around on wet pavement.
Other than that, it's bee ...

No worries there. I'm not a fan of the whole stance scene.
Im more of a hellafunctional girl myself. It's already sitting very nicely on tein Monoflex coils. I can't see doing anything else to it as far as that goes. (other than getting the EDFC controller)
As for stickers, until it reaches Racecar time, not doing that either... Lol.

I mean.... I don't mean to sound like a d**k, but what do you want me to say? Congratulations? Lol.
Different stokes for different folks.
Plus, dead bodies are just added weight ;)

Just the bar for now. No need for the full cage yet.
The bar is still SCCA legal, so it'll be fine for now.
I believe it was welded in by the previous owner.

I've owned boosted cars before, but nothing as fun as this little thing.
It won't be the only miata in the driveway. That's for sure.

Not running any races in particular.
Various AutoX events, track time at various tracks around the east coast.
Keepin it low key for now. Until I start the "because Racecar" build and get it ready for legit events.... It'll remain tame.

I've been in LS swapped miata. A lot of fun, but you get the feeling you might die... LOL.
Problem with that much power in the car is.... It gets very tail happy. It's already like that.
Between LS swap or Big turbo, it's probably gonna be Big turbo. That's not to say I won't LS swap another miata down the line, but I think for now, the fate of this car has already been decided.
I'm also no ...

At the moment, it's putting out in the realm of about 230-240 to the wheels.
I've thought about just saying "******** it all" and LS swapping it..... Then I remember, I want to drive it without dying... LOL.

5 speed for the 3's, the miata is a 6speed.
Most everything is staying with it, the roll bar is already good and SCCA legal. New seats for it, and mainly just engine work.
It's already got a lot of the stuff I wanted on it.
The coils on it are super nice, the only thing there getting is the EDFC controller. Probably upgrade some sway bars. Other than that, it's already got the Flying' Miat ...
