27 Years Ago – Part II – Life of Brian

Here’s what convinced me to go test drive a Miata. All of the July issues of the mainstream auto magazines in 1989 had a cover article on it. After thumbing through every one that I found on the shelf of the local Food Lion, I chose the Motor Trend to take home and read. I still have it.

I’ve included the add for the BMG Compact Disc Club for an additional bit of nostalgia. At one time I was a member (probably in tandem right along with the Columbia House one as well.)

Started up, went down, still down.
