    Tach in the middle makes me so happy.

    I'll probably seriously start looking at picking one up around 6-12 months after release.

    I see some rx8 in those headlights. I see how they are easily "frs lights" but it looks like pre face lift jdm rx8 with an eyelid over it

    I don't know. I like the middle, but the front and the rear aren't too attractive to me. The front is very odd looking and I do not like the large Mazda emblem. The back... yeah... I can't find too many positive things to say about it. I'm thinking it will look better in person when I can appreciate the curves, but that trunk doesn't look practical. (not that any Miata trunk is practical) I don't want custom luggage for a weekend trip.

    Actually 86 conversion would be very easy with that front bumper. Steal Toyotas fanbase

    Those are actually lovely.

    Looks kinda like the pod on the left is fully electronic. I don't think those are real needles on the fuel and temp gauges.

    I think he's saying that area is so large and flat you could land a plane on it. Maybe?
    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    With all the apparent brake room on the 16" wheel model, it doesn't look like 15s would be hard to fit.
