I'll ask you a question, how many more Miata's are you going to purchase in the next 5 years?

Lurkers, non-posters, and infrequent posters of WIBIMMERS: I challenge you to a challenge:

Log in and post something in this thread.

Some of us like lurking........ I think I am on here 20 times a day from tapa talk and barley posts anything anymore. Not really sure why I'm not very active anymore.

Oh Hello.  

Big Red and Racecar here.  Just seeing what's up.

535?

[Mekihead]

Yup!  Funny thing is, the label in the door says 535ia, but it's manual.  If you run the VIN, it's manual.  So why is it a 535ia and not a 535i?

"That label (weight & wheel label) should say "535i/A USA" ...the model number has a " / " between the "i" and "A" which indicates that the specs are for the manual AND automatic models imported to the USA...not that your car should have an auto tranny."

Holy Shit, this is it!  This is the line I've been looking for for so long!  Thank you so much.  I knew there was an explanation for it, but I never could find it.
