Flyin' Miata 1 800 FLY MX5s

Flyin' Miata was established in 1983 as The Dealer Alternative, specializing in the repair and servicing of Porsche, Audi and VW products. One day in 1989 one of our Porsche customers came by and threw us the keys to his brand new Miata and we fell in love. Within a couple of months we had turbo-charged our own Miata and a new business was born.

We were the first sponsors of Miata.net, before it even had the name. Bill Cardell became well known for offering technical assistance on the Miata mailing list. In 1996, we moved to Colorado and started working on Miatas exclusively. A couple of years later, we bought our first dyno to use as a tuning tool. Many of our special parts had been given the name "Flyin' Miata", and in 2000 we renamed the company to match. 2001 saw the debut of the Track Dog, our race car and torture-test device.

All along, we've tested nearly everything we sell on our own fleet of Mazdas. We lose track, but there are always at least a dozen ranging from almost-stock to some heavily modified beasts. There are now 12 people who work for FM including four technicians who are always ready to give technical help on anything. Customer service has always been a priority here!

We've enjoyed working with customers for the past 20-plus years. We're looking forward to the next couple of decades!

Thanks for your business!
Bill & Teri Cardell
