You can get in trouble with any car, but with the Miata being cheap, you won't be as concerned if you do get in any trouble. The S5 is a bit heavy, but with the Sport Diff and the handling mods I've done, it tracks pretty well. Brakes haven't been a problem (outside of pad deposits causing a vibration - a quick cut of them will fix that. I have better pads for the track now, so that won't be an issue going forward), but I'm sure steel brake lines would improve the feel. Always more mods to do.
BTW, I noticed you only mentioned a rear sway bar on the Selene. Does she have the Sport Diff option? Unsure if I'll do only a rear sway or F/R on my Q. No Sport Diff on mine. Only did the rear on my S, but it has the Sport Diff.
Whatcha waiting for? LOL!
Yeah, the Miata being cheap is its main advantage. Parts availability is also very nice. I can still buy a lot of new oem parts for it, which is kinda crazy on a 24 year old car. The S5 likes to eat up tires at the track, doesn't it? We only drive our S5 on the street and it still goes through tires pretty quickly.
Yup, only rear sway bar and end links on Selene. Still running oem bar in the front with oem Macan end links. They're metal instead of plastic. Handling definitely improved by just upgrading the rear sway bar and end links and leaving the front stock. The B8.5 SQ5 didn't get the sport diff option, unfortunately. That became available on the B9s.
