I quite like the white "250GTO" styled one. The Ferrari 250GTO is in my opinion the best looking car of all time, and that kit looks pretty nice, although some of the proportions are a little off.

not bad! The wheel fitment looks poopy but overall looks pretty good.

I hate the roofline on the white car.

the 250 kit is actually made by a different company.

its a pretty tempting option in my view and with the right wheels and paint it could work well

^^ Now that one is cool ^^ you cannot even tell its a Miata! That is a true kit car when they can pull it off correctly like that!

Not my thing, at all. Far from a Miata purist, but for that money I'd rather do an Exocet kit.

I dig the 250 one. I like the hardtop/fender idea. Great price too! No windows though, bet that would be expensive!

I'd totally drive one of those. With the right wheels it could look pretty neat. Heck, I'd even just take the rear/top.

The MEV looks weird. I don't mind the rear or top, but the front doesn't line up right. Tried copying the elise too much. The front is too small and narrow for the car. Should have spaced the lights out further and gave it a more defined chin.
