Actually, I am! lol. I already had a plan to go up tomorrow to do just that with the wife, but taking the bike out is a great idea. I'll see ya at the meet up!

Found out a new neighbor on my block has a super clean MR2 SW20, specifically this color:



Looks so clean.

I bought a $500 Miata. Needed a clutch so I put a new one in and it actually runs well!

Three smartphones and 6 years down the road, and I finally shattered my first screen.

Stupid mistake. I put it on the dash of the car so I could get in real quick to flip the air on and then step out for it to cool down a bit. Of course as soon as I sit down "crash".

I had a case on my phone till last month when the case broke on its own without falling or anything and the company customer service wouldn't send a replacement, so I left the phone naked. Usually with the case on there was enough grip to stay on the dash, but apparently not when the phone is naked.

RIP.

Lol, yup, same here. After 10 years and 5 smart phones I break my very first screen the morning of the summer kickoff off. Was trying to take a pic of my car by the mail boxes at the junction and the phone slipped from my hands and fell screen down.

What phone do you have? Got my pixel fixed within a couple of days from ubreak ifix

I've had various iPhones since 2008, never broken a screen. *knocks on wood*

Ouch. I have an iPhone 6, which is almost 3 years old now.

Going to try using it as is for a few days but if it's too weird or whatever then I'll probably have to get it repaired.

Is there a place you can like trade in your iPhone for another? I'd love to trade my 6 for a 6 plus with some cash on top.

I know Apple does trade in credit toward a new phone if you exchange an old phone. Problem is I don't know how that works when it's damaged.

It also appears to need a driver's side headlight. Unless you've already intentionally removed that for better cold air intake because racecar. In which case I salute you.

Nice find. I've always wanted to drive or even ride in a Miata, I like small cars.

I have NB2 projector headlights picked up already and the front bumper came with the car lol.

I've been autoxing a NC Miata all year so far since I crashed my FRS and haven't built the BRZ for STX class

Another cool thing is how many interesting mods are available for this car. I would totally be rocking these intake scoops and giant Greddy exhaust if I had one of these.

My cousin's husband has/had a red one just like that with a color matched intake scoop and those Greddy mufflers.
