NA is superior, anyone who says otherwise is WRONG.
And you can also break it down farther , 90 -93 = M1
94 -97 =M1.5
98 -00 =M2
01 -05 =M2.5
Sorry but I don't like the new NC or M3 or whatever they call the new RX8 look alike , OMFG have youse seen how big the door handles are on the outside of that body stlye forgetaboutit I just don't like them and the stock wheels are way to big and the ride is way to smooth , not miata like at all , sorry but I just don't care for the NC , hell I have trouble with 01 and up .
If Mazda isn't careful they'll do to the maiat what nissan did to the 240Z , a big fat girly car , ewwwwwwwwww

The Miata is already a girly car.

Something looks familiar about your avatar...
As we all know there wasn't a 98 MX5 and since he asked the question I figured if I had left out the year 98 he would wanna know why , of course as we all know they kept sellin 97 through the 98 yr till the 99 aka M2 came online , but if you look at some aftermaket sites from overseas they do list the model yr 98 , and I know someone with an M2 and the yr it was built was April of 98 . Hell the german sites some list the first yr as 89 now you tell me who is wrong !

Actually anything '96 and newer... OBD-II and the after-cat O2 sensor.If that's so, then try replacing your catalytic convertor with an aftermarket unit.

#-o Here comes my banning.
Having owned a 92 1.6 I can agree with the ease of maintence but , I do like my 99 tho when it dies I may go back a few yrs and get anutter M1 , gotta lover da barndoors .
When I sold my 92 and don't ask why , after I was told it was a very strong pullin 1.6 but I had done a few things to it , new intake and exhaust and flywheel and clutch , the clutch being a Sachs aka Borg&Beck , which when I had my british car were known for being the best , so I guess it was a cool little car but its gone now the guy who bought it crashed it and didn't even remove the MoMo , gotta lover a MoMo hell I got one in my 99 , nuthin better than a fine italian leather steering wheel .
