    So this came up on my FB page:







    Made by a local guy that builds various fiberglass parts. Not sure about quality or fitment but seems decent. His other stuff (flares, ducktails etc.) are rumored to be of excellent quality. Hope to get some real info soon.

    I know I'm NA. But I love the fact that it appears to be a Hatch rather than a trunk. Nicer lines!
    Hope this pans out and becomes available.

    I'm biased since I have one but... Buddy Club Spec II. https://youtu.be/uqHHDxYY-fw

    It's an axle back so as long as it is paired with a decent mid pipe, shouldn't sound ricey (or "that" ricey ).

    The fastback hardtop is produced in Greece, so I don't know if it would be worth to send it in the States

    As Peter said, made in Greece, so shipping would be a deal breaker most probably. This one is actually a based on a heavily modified OEM one, and indeed has a functional hatch, which IMO looks great. I would love some side windows though. The guy that built it says that fitment/quality is so-so at the moment, but he's working on making it at least at OEM levels. As this is still a prototype, there is no word on pricing yet; will keep you posted!

    Started a separate thread to keep everything together. IMO it needs side windows...

    I agree. Side windows would be awesome. Fastback would be a cool route for me. If I could find one locally......

    Well, I think the time has come to get a 4 door. I'm a family man now, and the garage only holds 2. Going to get her cleaned up and ready to sell. If I can, I'd love to find a Subie STI or possibly an outback. I'll grab another Miata as a fun toy after life settles down a little.

    Be prepared to be introduced to the 4 door, AWD, turbo tax if you go for an STI. It's absolutely ridiculous what people are asking, and seemingly getting, for WRXs and EVOs.

    I picked up a NB1 front lip from eBay for $110 shipped.

    Sprayed it with Silver plasti-dip.
