lol @Sideways&Smiling you listed every reason why I'd pick a Miata over an 240sx 6 days a week and twice on Sundays:

The stock suspension on it is also very soft and not track-oriented, the NA/NB chassis has no rigidity (very floppy), and the power potential is very low without going with a K-series or LSx engine.
You call out all these 'deficiencies' that exist on the 240sx by your own admission, why would every part under the sun be needed from aftermarket unless the OEM needed replacing? bleh I could counterpoint this all day, I tried throwing you a bone, enjoy.
