I agree with not wanting the power steering. I drove my cousins 3rd gen, and the power steering seems to "fade away" at higher speeds. Its really kinda nice because you get the best of both worlds, power steering in parking lots, but nothing on the highway, just the feel of the road. I dont know if thats normal or not, but its cool. He said that the person he bought it from did some work on the steering, so I dont know if its "normal".

Got Boost?
My next door neighboor has a miata, thats been well turbo'd running 9psi, with an all the RB suspension mods. He let me take it for a drive, then I got in my 85 GS, and took it for a spin. The steering is much tighter on the miata, and the suspension was a lot more responsive. The power, was obviously beyond compare.... it flew through the gears. The cockpit is a bit tighter, not great for a 6'1" person that I am, but other than that...... .....
Amazingly though it felt extremely close to what I would imagine my 1st gen, with 200hp, and a well upgraded suspension.... The "feel" is almost identical.
