Not getting tickets isn't always up to you... Things happen. I got my first ticket after 22 years of driving and about 4 months after getting the Elise.. I'll be darned but I totally desrved it! (still got it dismissed, but heck, I did deserve it!)
Btw, I had 3 Miata's and they are cheap on insurance. Had a '90 for a short while, a '93 that I had for nearly 15 years (and had over 3,500 miles at the road courses like Sebring on) and a '96M. There are a lot of fun and, more importantly, inexpensive things you can do with a Miata..and frankly, what you save just on insurance and payments compared to the others can be spent doing other things. Either adding to the car or just simply going out with friends! There is something really fun about going out for a night with a couple of your friends and being able to afford to pick up the tab without worrying about making a much larger car/insurance payment...
