team scooter Posted August 20, 2020 Share #5 Posted August 20, 2020 Pic from our day trip Sunday. Spotted while walking Maggie downtown New Glarus. Our son has a gray PRHT NC just like this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team scooter Posted August 21, 2020 Share #7 Posted August 21, 2020 Since we've gotten the Yata, I cant help but notice all the roadsters, targas and convertibles. I don't see many Del Sols, but I'm always surprised at how many MR 2 Spiders I see around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebay has you covered, though! This one is Knoxville, TN, but probably CA has the most and in best shape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We bond over a cheap classic roadster that is a tad more reliable than an MG. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually prefer Honda in a lot of areas over Toyota or Mazda (or Nissan, etc.), but when they killed the CR-X and made attempts to return with the del Sol or the CR-Z, I lost faith in them making a good fun little car. We love our zippy Civic with a 5sp manual, but compared to the CR-X we had? Nope. The S2000 was a nice try at the Miata market, but overpriced and a bit over-complicated versus the tried and true Miata design. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were sposed to revive it but it apparently fizzled. I thought it would be nice to get a used 2000 but yes, it is a little pricey. Funny, I NEVER see them on the road. Very rarely.

Here is WoBG's 23 year old 1997 Honda Prelude. She still loves the car. In the winter WoBG drives the Subaru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team scooter Posted August 21, 2020 Share #16 Posted August 21, 2020 Around here its mostly Mustang convertibles. Then newer Corvettes, then Camaros. We live near an area of million dollar "lake cottages" so you'll see some old English Roadsters and the occasional Ferrari or Maserati convertible too. But sometimes, when the weather is just right, cars like these find their way oot of their toy barns and over to the local coffee shops, Saw these a few days ago. Aah the smell of old gas and Stabil in the morning...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very aptly named car! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never tried out my CR-Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
