The ND Miata’s power steering is via an electric motor connected to the steering gears, instead of a hydraulic system connected to the steering gears.
Well the CLK-GTR flew and stuff. That kind of passing is not in the rules.
You think the Escapes do pretty well? You should look at the Avalon Hybrid taxis.
Corvette? Pfft! If you’re going to go full retard to the grave, go with a Viper.
Likely wall-clock time, not man months of labor.
Kind of both. It gets results, but through rubbery brute force, at the expense of steering feel and making a car less playful and more boring on public roads.

I didn’t even realize this car was sold in the Paint to Sample window.
It says no petting, but nothing about hugging!
Man, that looks so European. /s
HEY EVERYONE IT’S NEARLY 8-O-CLOCK SO GET READY FOR GOOF’S ZAAAAAAAAANY COMMENTS ABOUT BLAH BLAH BLAH WUHOHOHO!

Every time I see a Mirage, I ask the owner why they purchased it. After they tell me, I ask them whey they didn’t buy a 2-year old Corolla instead.
I’ve not forgotten them.
Mazdas of the era had dash lowers that scuffed to hell and back (NC Miata included) whereas the Camrys of the era didn’t have such issues.
