That was with either 5.5" or 6" wide wheels. A/C was optional (added weight)- about 40 lbsĪctual weight when you added in power steering and A/C was likely closer to the 2220 lbs range. Package B (cruise, power Windows) 2189 lbs Package A (power steering, etc) 2182 lbs According the Mazda, the Miata has had the following curb weights:ġ990- 2116 lbs (base, completely stripped out car) I hear the arguments of the NC being a "boat" and I guess I just don't understand them. The chassis feels like it could take considerably more power without falling apart. it's so much more solid and direct vs the NA/NB. The torsional rigidity/chassis stiffness of the NC is more than double what the original NA was. On equal rubber, the NC is substantially faster than the NA/NB in any contest I can think of. ![]() Not sure if an NB1 would have been better, but the NB2 was a tight fit.Ĭar prices are incredibly high right now, but prior to this madness, with the prices on NC's getting so low, I haven't understood why the NC wasn't the track junkie machine that the NA/NB have turned into.

It's not even close, both in the headroom and legroom departments (although I do occasionally get jabbed by the door handle/cup holder in my left leg).Ģ. The NC has nearly the same amount of space as my S2000, despite being 300+ lbs lighter than my AP2! In order of which one do I fit it:ġ. The NC has by far the most space for my frame, which certainly plays into this equation. In some circles I might be burned at the stake for speaking such blasphemy. Out of all of them, the NC is my favorite. Over the years, we've owned quite a few Miata's: Between my wife and I, we've now owned all 4 generations of Miata.
