If this were even the third time I would let it pass without comment. I just watched the After Drive video where Travis Okulski talks about the RS, the M2 and the Cayman GS4 and he calls it a RevoKnuckle differential.
This isn't NAM, there are rules.
The 458 Speciale is going to be the last Ferrari NA V8, those buyers aren't hating anything except traffic enforcement laws.
So no LSD, eh? Using the brakes as an LSD is ok for street use but not for track days. A real shame that the LSD was a victim of price-point engineering (but not completely unexpected). Hopefully Ford Performance offers an optional LSD. I don't feel like voiding the warranty in a new car or throwing out a…
Ford also announced the new RS has the one performance feature that hoons have been begging for the most: all-wheel drive. The last RS was front-wheel drive but largely free of crippling torque steer thanks to its RevoKnuckle differential, but the new one will go full rally-grade with proper four-wheel power. And…
We should know more soon, so stay tuned.
Came here to say the same thing. LSD is the way to go on your range topping performance model.
The Miata name is strong. A MS MX-5 with 230/230 would compete with a NEW Boxter for a lot less. Sure it would be a rare bird, but how common was the FD RX7? Why give all the cash to the V8 swappers?
Fingers crossed for AWD. It needs to be a big step up from the ST to justify the RS moniker.
Except that I'll be shopping for a new car this summer and even the "powerful" US spec car isn't enough for me. :-(
Much like Porsche's claim about the 911, a used Miata will be the new Miata's biggest competition. If I'm going to void the warranty strait away, why not just get a used one that's already depreciated? …
Perfect numbers for the chassis! I just cannot understand why Mazda refuses to release a Mazdaspeed version now that there's no RX_ to steal sales from. >_<
I would absolutely NOT buy a $47,840 car (yes, I've been playing with the config) without test driving it, and there's pretty much no way to test drive the 6 speed.
That's exactly what I'm afraid of. The NC had pretty much 1 supercharger option, compared to the plethora of turbo options for NA and NBs. I am in LOVE with the ND's shape but that's just not enough power. I don't need a lot, but I really feel like it needs 230ish. I'm willing to downgrade, but not that much. :-(
Dear Santa: 1 Mazdaspeed turbo 2016 MX-5 with 235hp 230lb ft torque in BRG.
Is there some option between 155hp and an LS swap? It doesn't need 350HP but it needs more than 155. Damn I hope this skyactive is easier to turbo than the previous engine. :-\
"How difficult is it to add power to that 2.0 skyactive engine?" is the only question in my mind.
With no RX7 to steal sales from I don't understand why Mazda doesn't offer a high powered Mazdaspeed version.
Not for long, I'm sure.
Note that Japan is not unique in having unmanned food stalls, as they can also be found in many other countries throughout the world. Vending machines are ultimately a modern version of these stalls.

It must be music to someone's ears... >_<
