Better since I've been replacing/upgrading parts that fail from track use. For example, I used to go through brake pads often and melt dust boots, but a BBK has solved that. Used to have high oil temps, but an oil cooler has solved that, etc.

Yes. There's no other lightweight RWD coupe in the price range. Practically speaking it's a sharper-handling Miata coupe.
