That's how all the first owners drove their miatas. When you buy a used miata remember that.

I doubt it. You probably just wanted to judge an old woman and have no idea what she actually did.

It just has a loud exhaust retard, how would you possibly know what 3k sounds like from outside the car

old ladies consistently have blessed the car community with their retro cars in superb condition. their weekly church commute keeps God on their side. bless them, that when they incur a severe financial deficit from the American health system, that they may not be eventually lowballed by a covetous OP.

Common miata L
Those engines have too light a flywheel and too big a throttle body for the power and RPM they produce - they're designed to feel like a race engine while producing power and RPM barely better than the completely drivable Camry engine.

mighten you be more likely to know what 3k sounds like if you were raised by a single mother?
Or at least if she owned a manual....

>miata NA 1.4
it was a 2nd gen miata which has a 1.8 liter engine.
the 3rd gen miata has a 1.8 or 2.0.
the 4th gen miata has a 1.5 or a 2.0.
what are you even talking about?

I do this on my 114hp 2006 BMW
If I don’t rev it to 2k or more the car almost shits itself and stalls
And I though the clutch was on its way…phew
The spring seems to be in bad condition tho, it will occasionally not let the clutch disengage.(though it did not happen at all today)

I own an ND2
on flat ground it will crawl out on it's own just letting out the clutch. hardly needs more than the lightest touch of gas anywhere else.
