Oh, HAIL no!

I too own one. And I too will keep it until I pick up a 997 Carrera 2S. I'm also mulling over a Fiesta ST or BR-Z as a DD so the Miata is kept for weekend fun.

coupe? :D :D :D

My vote is the F50, F1 derived engine and suspension in a street car with a 6 speed gated manual? Pretty hardcore and beautiful to boot.

Two seats, no top, a nasty V-12, zero creature comforts, bodywork that should have inspired several obscenity charges, and a license plate. Everything necessary and that's it.

So, I had decided that I wanted an Ariel Atom a LONG time ago, but at the time, with the options that I wanted, the price was over $85K. Yeah, that's a bit much. So, I pushed it on the stack of things that I'll get should I win the lottery. FFWD a few years. I have a side job that's paying pretty well, and I start…

Not a super car, but it's pretty super. Sadly it'll soon be for sale to make room for the GT4.

I'm not sure if you would categorize Jim as sane in the common sense of the word. Building multimillion dollar bespoke race cars that can be run on the street for kicks and giggles is amazing art and passion, but probably not the most sensible thing one can do with their money.

Amazingly, I've sort of accepted the death of manuals in super cars. It just makes sense, which is why all the big names are doing it. It doesn't mean I like that super cars don't have manuals anymore, but does it really matter? It's not like I can finally afford one and am disappointed they don't offer a manual. …

I kind of agree nowadays regarding manual's. I love them to death, but performance on the current crop of supercars is so high that flappy paddles are almost needed to keep inexperienced drivers safe from themselves. I actually miss manuals more on the street in day to day driving than I do on the track (can't…

I see it entirely differently. I think it looks substantially more purposeful than the outgoing design. It maintained 90% of the sexy, clean lines, and did away with 10% of the "fat" like those side-blades and droopy headlight scallops. While I realize that many people felt the side blades were their favorite part of…

There's just not enough sex. That's what I've decided. Yes, it's faster, lighter, and more modern, but it's also a little more boring, a little more corporate, and without the famous gated manual.

OK, right on. Looks like a Miata.

Nice! The faithful I think will love it. I still am probably not going to be able to shoehorn myself into that thing. Color me disappointed.

Generally speaking, I am not a Miata fan (as some of you are aware). But I will admit, with this one I am very impressed.

Seems to have kind of lost it's goofiness. I liked goofiness. But it does seem to look good. I want to see it in person before passing on my worthless opinion.

AH WHATS THAT HORRIBLE SMELL?!!! IT SMELLS LIKE MALT VINEGAR AND HEINZ BROWN GRAVY. OH WAIT, JALOPNIK CAME.

Well it is exactly the same as the picture from the other day right?

Pretty sure that's a Lambo, dude.
