Absolutely. Just changing jobs buggered my commute and took the fun out of my Miata. The M Coupe fixed that issue, but it still suffered with boring Dallas roads. It's not like it was fast in modern terms, and in highway areas, that's really all that works.

Fortunately, Austin has very few straight or flat roads and I really find myself wanting another Miata now that I'm down here.
