My weekend car is a '97 Miata M-Edition. Great on winding mountain roads getting to climbing rides. I have a receiver and a 1-bike rack on the back. Very dependable and does everything (sports car wise) better than my '67 MG Midget (which had tons of retro-coolativity . . . and not much else).

My dream car: Lancia Stratos.

We all must have something in common beyond bicycles. One of my current cars is a '95 M-Edition Merlot. It's fun to drive like the MGB, but with air-conditioning. Light-years ahead of the Capri in reliability.
