Definitely a great car to have if you also have other useful cars, which Lou does.

Mazda went to great lengths to remove weight from the ND Miata. It seems as though this led to some fragile transmissions. As Chris noted it's been fixed, but there are still some cars out there with the pre-update transmission.

If you're set on an NC (and they're great cars), I'd definitely try to get a later one like FC mentioned. You might consider searching miata.net... guessing you could find a better deal there than at a dealer.
