Have you ever considered a Miata L, with a 4-6" stretch in the middle so people taller than 6' with spindly, awkward legs and big feet can drive them?

What cars do you consider to have inspired the Miata? How conscious was your emulation of classic British sports cars like the MGB or the Spitfire?

When you first had the notion of the Miata, were you at all inspired by the classic old British sports cars of the 60s and 70s? I've always assumed that sitting in an MX-5 was something akin to the glory of sitting in an old Healy or Triumph, but with an engine that would actually start.

i'm betting it's some writer at a pr firm that has no fucking clue how a car works

The jaguar on the old hood looked right because it was a long relatively flat hood. It did not slope down much towards the front bumper.

For a second that actually looked like a road and I was like 'WHERE IS SOMETHING THIS GLORIOUS?!'

Máté, these pictures are amazing because they show just how small the Breadvan was even compared to its contemporaries like the DB5 and the E-Type. Thanks for writing this.

What.the.hell??? Some transit love every once in a while would be nice.

My house is already littered with hundreds of those things. Damn kids don't always get them all picked up and the cats drag them all over too.

I would totally buy a bunch of those NERF nukes.

This is a great question. I think we're used to associating production with mass production and marketing with mass marketing. I think it's legitimate for a production car to meet the definition of a reproducible "series" at any amount, and the definition of marketing to include very small-target channels like, say, a…

How original,someone attacking Christians. Funny how I find so many who attack us,sad depressed anti-socials. Thanks for proving me right.

I can appreciate what you're saying, maybe the solution is to have a "Dialed Down Summary" at the beginning so that people who want a quick answer are appeased and the rest is there for those of us that are interested.

Well, I have 7TB on backblaze. But I also own a RED camera so admittedly 4TB of that is RED 4k/5k footage.

Reminds me of Fort Boyard.
