Get your wheels balanced. The car isn't supposed to shimmy. Either your tires are out of balance or your steering components are worn and need replaced
@@shrimp562 I sold my car some time ago, but I had new tires and balanced with road force (something like that) to a certain specification mentioned by other users on a forum.

Also I think you need to reread what I said because I didn't say it was a Miata it was just one of those small cars like a Miata and I explained how the door handle was right next to the steering wheel
There is some generations and trims of the miata you have to look for if you are over 6ft. NA/NC/ND are perfect for anyone, some people hate NB because its too small for them.
Ive used my nc for plenty of 6 hour roadtrips and its perfectly fine. Cruise control for the long staright highways, and taking the roof down if you start to feel tired. Cant beat it. Wind noise can be annoying with the soft top up though
I have done quite a few road trips in my nb and it has been wonderful honestly. Just enough space for all the luggage and if you can avoid highway which is very easy where i live you are going to have fun all the way to your destination
What I did on my Fiero was get the biggest antenna I could find and put a flag on it. 1) made it look like an RC car which was hilarious 2) people stopped running me off the road
Would it be possible to add a roof flag or spoiler so people can see you better? Kinda like how jeep wranglers fly a giant American flag on their rear trailer hitch ?
I’d like to mention that on the highway sure it’s decently fuel efficient but on the highway you’re at a constant 4-5k rpm, which burns fuel staggeringly fast and doesn’t help ride comfort with the engine constantly at high rpm. (NA 5-speed manual)
ND 160 130kph at 3k rpms on flat consumes 4-5 L/100km, on average on my downhill/uphill commute I get 6L/100 at 100kph with passing trucks and slow people
Well… I have seen a Dutch couple driving the NC500 in an MX5. The passenger legroom was filled with maps, and so way basically every other little nook or cranny. It honestly looked like a lot of fun!
my neighbors has a 99 NB. always waves to every gen miata. it's not the generation that dictates the wave. it's their age. older people aren't super down with the miata scene.
So you tell me that I have to buy an older, worser, and yet more expensive Miata ? All that price and troubles Just so that you will be acknowledged, waved and greeted by this particular exclusively arrogant individuals that will only wave to those who have the same pop up headlights ? While at the same time, there's a lot of other who will not only wave at you, but greet you as another Miata owner or as car guy without any prequisites ? I can't see the real benefit here, let alone if the benefit outweigh the cost itself. What a logical fallacy at best. ------------------------ If you just say that the headlights can be used to show emojis to make content, the argument may have more benefit. But we can always put emojis with sticker, wrap, and other stuff. Plus it won't last long before people get bored anyway. And with pop up headlights, you will have to deal with the damn motor if this broken.
@@01_zenyobi My problem ive found is that most people with ND Miatas dont know about the miata community at all, while NA and NB owners(I own an NB) wave or flash lights. For some reason I NEVER see NC miatas though.
Drove my nb1 Miata 1600 miles in two days from Utah to indianapolis, it drove perfectly, didn’t have any issues, only thing it’s uncomfortable as hell. But aside from the wind blowing me everywhere on the road, it did just fine.
Did a 6 hour trip to Oklahoma in my Fiesta ST. The only issues I had were nearly overheating multiple times and how uncomfortable the recaros get after 3+ hours of driving continuously 😭😭😭
My biggest issue with my Miata (2001, 2nd gen like this red one) is the heat coming off the transmission tunnel. I could only replace some insulation as the dash has to be removed to get under the forward carpet. Will likely create blankets that cover the tunnel from the outside. Otherwise, great car. I’m 5’5” and have no trouble fitting inside.
Check your shifter, the rubber boot is probably torn which makes the problem much worse. It'll still get hot but it should take a bit of time before it seeps into the cabin.
I will say, it’s only as impractical as you allow it to be. I’ve strapped a kayak to the top of my NB. This last year I took 2 trips to florida and back with the thing (about a 7hr drive from where I’m at) and with stock suspension and seats, I didn’t have any problems.
The NCs and NDs have more passenger space. I’ve been daily driving MX5s for over 15 years I’ve never really had the issue where other cars didn’t see me. I have a strong hunch if it happens that frequently it has to do with not being defensive enough.
In this case you are right! The Miata is a local driving car to be seen in. If by chance you would like a pocket rocket that is a road car get yourself a Honda Del Sol Vtec. You will have a roomy two-seater with a big trunk. It will hit 130mph. I own one. By the way, I don't like big trucks used for noncommercial use. They are not cool and don't handle.
I hate driving longer than 2 hours in my NA. Mine in particular has no cruise control which is a pain on its own, but even if I did, I would probably still hate it. The cabin is loud, I get cramps, the stereo sucks. The visibility to other drivers is abysmal. In my 1.6 with the 5MT, the engine turns over at 4k at 70, which doesn’t make for the most relaxing drive, between the noise and the concern about running the motor that high like that for several hours. Needless to say, not an enjoyable experience. But, once the highway ends and the back roads begin: the Miata is a dream and I wouldn’t have it any other way 😊
I've driven my NA Miata on 10 hour road trips to my spouse's parents house pretty regularly. Unless you fatigue easily, it's pretty nice (especially on fuel)
Had a trucker merge into me one time while I was driving my 86 from NC to Texas and I leaned forward to look up at him through my windshield. Dude face is red and looks like he’s about to burst a vessel from screaming at me. What’s crazy is I was in the cruising lane going 75 and slowly passing him so he had plenty of time to see me but I think he didn’t see me and assumed I was speeding and blocked him or something. Either that or he was just mad that I merged away from him to avoid getting roadkilled under his trailer. Never know with people these days.
I have a 2015 WRX and I almost got ran off the road multiple times on a trip because people didn't see me. It's a silver sedan. They just weren't paying attention
about the getting ran off the road thing. it happens to me too in my 72 chevy c20. its bright yellow 20+ft long and people still cant friggin see the thing
Miata is a perfect highway cruiser, just not in the states where people are horrible drivers. The Miata is not too small for you, I can comfortable drive it and I am 6'5"
Me and my ex went to her parents house for Christmas in the miata. Packed bags to stay the night. Completely forgetting we’re going to be getting gifts to take back, we still made it work lol.
Drove 13 hrs from ny to sc for the first time. Everything was fine...Except for the fact an f350 rear-ended me in stop and go traffic. I don't have the miata anymore.
Everyone goes on and on about how small these cars are, I own a Datsun 120y and it’s actually smaller than a Mazda Miata in length, height and width. I have never come close to being run off the road
Hey I’m looking into getting a hard top for my 1990 Miata (I ls1 swapped it) and it has a pretty well used soft top but anyways where’d you get the hardtop
As someone who's driven over 140 consecutive miles in an NB miata ... no, don't do it, it's hell. Air con barely blew cold air on an extremely hot day (i was absolutely drenched in sweat by the end of it), super noisy on faster roads had a headache most of the time, and I was crippled by the time it was over due to the posture/position you sit in 😂

And the people buying said big cars shouldn't be the ones buying them since they don't properly drive them (like not being able to see smaller cars)

Get a luggage rack for the trunk and you’re good to go
Hey I’m looking into getting a hard top for my 1990 Miata (I ls1 swapped it) and it has a pretty well used soft top but anyways where’d you get the hardtop
Love the meaty setup
Before anything else, what constitute a road trip car?
As someone who's driven over 140 consecutive miles in an NB miata ... no, don't do it, it's hell. Air con barely blew cold air on an extremely hot day (i was absolutely drenched in sweat by the end of it), super noisy on faster roads had a headache most of the time, and I was crippled by the time it was over due to the posture/position you sit in 😂
The great abundance of SUVs and civilian trucks makes it harder to be seen in a sports car.
Damn I wanted a miata as my first car but at 6’5” maybe not💀
Loud pipes save lives!
I've actually once almost hit a small car because it was in my mirror's blindspot and it was too small to see it when i looked over my shoulder.
Its meant for 2 lane roads not 4 lane hwys....my dad died due to a wreck in his brother's miata
RIP your dad sorry to hear that.
That’s one of the reasons I want an 86 instead. Sorry to hear that, RIP.
I’ve been on a road trip in a Miata, and it was probably the most uncomfortable experience I ever had. The seats are terrible.
The tires make me think its not so stock
