So yeah...I don't think I'm interested in owning a car that has any sort of cellular internet access.
This is a bit of a lengthy read, but well worth it. Basically, hackers have been able to gain control of a Jeep Cherokee wirelessly. All sorts of systems can be compromised, from the annoying (playing with the HVAC controls) to the dangerous (defeating brakes).

Makes me glad the S2000 is as uncomplicated as it is.

Seems to be a mixed bag. I can see it's use in a cruiser or family vehicle. Just not in a sports car.
You can use google maps for navigation, kids can stream YouTube to their hearts content and you can also stream music from Pandora or spotify.

Appears to be a quiet day today. Just got home from doing a track day at Palmer Motorsports Park. Daktruckie Mike and Shiv also attended. Nice weather and a long day. I need a shower, drink and a meal then I am off to bed. Gotta run those TPS reports at work tomorrow

Possibly the first crash of the ND Miata. Mazda did the right thing and is giving the owners a new car.

So is this humidity keeping you in or are you staying outdoors.
For me personally, I'd take a few days of humidity over a few days trapped in a wintry spell.
Haven't driven the S much, but have been busy with family in town. Autocross this weekend though and I will make it to that.
