Dammit, I already have an NA Miata and an '82 300D. I don't need any more ideas right now.

I drive an NA Miata. It has soft, organic features and is dainty. I think it looks great. We don't have to come up with another term for "chick car" because there's no such thing - there are only people with masculinity issues.

Why did you decide on a grille opening with sharp angles near the headlights? I'd heard it was going to be more ovular like the NA, which I suppose is true for the lower half.

Sorry, but I'm pretty sure the Freedom Riders dealt with the very worst.

It took 32 minutes from first ever seeing the car to a shooting brake render. This must be the Miata, and this must be Jalopnik. Good job guys!

If it has tow hooks, you can just get a tow hook-mounted bracket like on my NA - but I don't see tow hooks here.

Great post! Was thinking of posting something similar. As someone who also has an NA Miata and has been following these developments in a way that borders on obsession, I'd like to add:

The Extended Ghostbusters universe doesn't count, like in the same way the Extended Star Wars Universe doesn't count.

Along with "ASSMAN"

How did you do that? Did you get that from somewhere else? I must know.

The original was a Cadillac hearse/wagon. This is a modern Cadillac wagon that also, for many reasons, is amazing in its own right.

A 1991 Miata with 138k, wrong wheels, and Satan's transmission is worth about $2750 on the planet I like to call home.

There's no such thing as a loan with 0% interest - there are only loans with 0% stated interest rates. The interest rate in the loan is implicit - financing is not free. A part of the purchase price you finance with a 0% loan includes a finance/interest portion that you simply pay over the life of the loan.

This is, of course, completely unrelated to another manufacturer's new plans for factory racing.

You could buy 11 Stratoses (Strati?) for that money. Consequently, you would then also be the most interesting man in the world.
