Sounds like the good old Miata shakes at 65 mph syndrome!

>From experience - both mine do it -  and reading the literature.
it is a problem that seems to show up in about 80% of the Miatas.
Mazda recognizes the problem as shown by the rear strut on the
93's and the added front strut on the 94's.  

Fixes have gone from 
	4 wheel alignment with you in the driver's seat

	Add the track bar for a pre-93

	High speed balancing

	And the latest that is being pushed -- install the hardtop!

I'm in Florida and a hardtop just don't cut it here!  So, I try to 
avoid that 63 to 68 mph range that sets up the vibration!
