Hello MXer's
Just like to say hello to all MX5 owners. Name is Shane and I work for Jetstar Airways as Ramp worker.
I have been on here for a couple of Months. I picked up the MX5 from QLD and love it to bits. It is a 2013 Liquid silver PRHT. It an auto but that is so the better half can enjoy it as much as i do. I love modding but i feel this car don't need to much of that.

Hope to catch up on a cruise in the near future.

Hi and welcome to the obsession! :mrgreen:

Look up Reggie (also an NC) to see some of the mods he's done for inspiration.
You could also possibly try catching up with him at work as he's with Quaintarse Engineering in Sydney...... :wink:

+1 for the auto in the NC.

While I would never, ever, in a million years, recommend an auto NA or NB, in the NC, it's fine. It's a whole different vibe.

Not only is the gearbox better "in general", and a 6-speed, but the option to shift with the paddles or the gear shifter itself, is great.

Airline worker + auto + mx5 = ?
