I didn’t notice that our 3rd brake light was out until reviewing the footage from today’s video! What a great opportunity to replace the old incandescent bulb with a new LED from ! Now the rear end is more cohesive and brighter for more safety.

One year ago this week we picked up our lovely Miata 🥂 While we have only driven her roughly 600 miles in that time, each one has been memorable and spent having smiles on our faces! Here’s to the transformation and restoration of an amazing little machine, celebrating our progress so far and looking forward to more to come 💜

Lavender survived her first (or at least first with us) MATG!!! We didn’t stay the whole time but did make it out to meet the group at the end of the sunset run Thursday night and spent a full day driving on Saturday without any hiccups! There’s still lots more to fix and repair but I’m so proud of this car and how far we’ve come with her already.

Between the wonderful driving roads, picture spots, seeing my old 30AE again, and meeting amazing people (some of which recognized the car and I from YouTube!), MATG is such a great event and this year was no exception! Until next time ✌🏻

Lavender made her debut today! 110ish miles round trip and not a single hiccup, aside from the rain getting in at the usual spots around the corner of the windshield frame and top of the windows. Add ‘adjusting soft top seals’ to list of to-dos…

With spring fast approaching (or already here depending on your location), it’s time to get our project Miata ready for weekend drives! Checkout episode 2 of our restoration series as we begin the interior transformation by installing the carpet, new (to us) seats, rebuilding the shifter, and more.

After months of being a Miata-less household, it’s time to introduce our new to us 1994 project MX-5! Everyone, say hello to Lavender! 👋💜

Her paint may be shiny but don’t let that fool you, she needs a little (or a lot!) of TLC. Follow along as we tackle her first major issue and begin the process of slowly but surely giving her the resto-mod she deserves!

Checkout the first video of the restoration series on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/ZFcIReyvhwE?si=zNs7_wZjvg2eT32R

Just hit 1,000,000 lifetime views on YouTube! 🥳 feels like a huge accomplishment and something I never really saw coming, especially considering the infrequency with which I post new videos. Speaking of, to celebrate 1,000,000 views I’ve uploaded another video! This video details the installation process of Revlimiter gauge faces in an ND MX-5. Make sure to check it out! Link in my bio

It’s officially been 3 weeks with the M3 and I absolutely love it! So far, it’s exactly the type of car I was looking for and needing as a replacement for the 30AE. I’m thinking of doing a mini-review video for this car and further explanation of why and how it came about. Do you have any questions for the video or about the car that you would like to see answered?

One of the questions I’ve gotten asked the most about the M3 is ‘what are your plans for it?’ Right now, maintain it! I feel like anytime you get a new vehicle, especially one with higher mileage, your best bet is to take care of any maintenance/repair items, big and small, and spend time learning the car and what it needs. Chances are, there are some unexpected items that need attention immediately or very soon. Of course adding mods and customizing your car is what most of us really enjoy doing, but ensuring your car is running its best should always come first!

After lots of searching a test driving a few different options, I finally found a worthy replacement for the 30AE. Here is my new-to-me 2012 E92 BMW M3 w/ Competition Package! As a do-everything car, there’s not many that are better than this. High-revving naturally aspirated V8, quick-shifting and engaging dual-clutch transmission, adaptive suspension that’s comfortable and sporty, and much more. It’s fast, balanced, and great to drive in all scenarios. Here’s to new adventures and memories made in one of them best BMWs of all time!
