I got my 99′ Miata last week – Twilight Blue, leather, 5-speed. Had to
leave town for a week the next day :*( But I’m back and loving it

I don’t know if it’s the 15" tires or general improvements to the
suspension, but it is a much smoother ride, and the car corners much
better and holds better on wet corners.

The stereo is adequate but not impressive. The headrest speakers will be
missed.

The passenger-side airbag key would make more sense in the glove box. It’s
not the sort of thing you are going to be turning on and off all the time.

Two minor but annoying omissions – no trunk light and no keyhole light on
the steering column. Strange that they omitted the trunk light.

Overall, I am in love. I totalled my 96′ base package 5-speed the day
before Thanksgiving, and decided to hold out for the ’99 rather than buy a
97. I’m glad I waited.
