The car I first learned to drive on was a Suzuki Omni. I was 14 and where I grew up, there are no traffic laws or driver license checks. The engine is right under the driver and smokes when you drive it hard. Fwiw makes you a better driver in the grand scheme of things. 

The first car I bought was a 2002 RAV4, right after college. Did multiple cross country road trips with it, made it into a camper with a full bed (picture in reply).

The first car that was an impulse buy was a 1994 NA Mazda Miata. Best stick shift (picture in reply).

made a slightly more involved change

hard to express how good a gated shifter sounds on a NA Miata

Dang, I’ve never installed a gated shifter but i can recommend installing a short shifter. Feels good man

I like short shifters but the normal length feels better with metal gates

I could see that. Btw that’s a clean Miata. I miss mine. I had a 91 NA, but a short guy in a lifted Silverado broke it :/

All good! I ended up with 3x what I paid for it and half of what I needed to buy a family car :)
