The Mazda Miata MX-5 has been a popular car among automotive enthusiasts for more than 15 years, and hardly a single one of the more than 700,000 sold has not been customized by its owner in some way. This book provides specific how-to instructions through 41 projects that include both maintenance and modification procedures for all cars from 1990 to 2005. Each project is treated separately, giving readers very specific information about the commitment in time, tools, money, and talent for each project.

Miata Performance Projects:
Really good book for the Miata owner to have, nicely illustrated and easy to use
Lacking content:
I bought this book expecting great things from Keith Tanner, after reading many of his insights on Miata.net. This book might be a good introduction to a new Miata owner, but it leaves a lot out that is covered in the Miata Performance Handbook by Norm Garrett.
Making a great car even better:
The Miata is a great car off the lot, but everyone has different ideas of perfection and the canvas that the Miata provides is perfect for people to create their own vision of automotive perfection. As an autocross racer I'm obviously biased toward performance rather than comfort, and with the help of this book, I've been able to modify my car (and maintain it) to the point where I'm winning at the races. A good purchase, it's saved me hundreds in maintenance fees by being able to do the work myself. Well... more info
Well worth the money:
This book is great for anyone who intends to do repair on their Miata. Much clearer instructions tha most manuals, and written by someone is is a Miata entusiast.
