MX-5 Club edition
I was at the dealer getting an oil change and they had 4 of these on the lot and in the show room. 2 are red and 2 are white. I have to say they are really cool looking. I almost traded my Eight in on one. I just cannot go without the back seats and well the payment would suck.

Yeah, I'm still strongly tempted by a white one :)
They "Extended" the scheme from the prior year's special edition: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....1328713538.jpg http://images.thecarconnection.com/m...00380906_m.jpg Added that front lip the side graphic, and some suspension upgrades (shocks, springs, rear diff, strut brace) |
I almost want to get a used Mazda 3 and buy the red one to put in my garage. Yeah trying running that one by your wife!
|
If I hadn't have my 99 Miata decide to throw a bunch more problems at me last October (which resulted in buying my MSM), I probably would have bought a new Club Sport with my bonus.
|
had a red one at the NYIAS. I am really warming up to these little guys
|
If they had forced induction i would be game but they are a bit low on power for my taste.
|
How about +$5,095 for 250whp complete bolton, includes every last piece you need, including the tune?
Yes, you can. |
Checked it out that the LA Auto show and recently at a dealer. Very nice. My mate is currently getting his money right to purchase one.
|
Nice mx-5's. Already have 2 grown up kids and i used to like the Miata's. Anyway, the only 2-seater i owned is a Triumph Spitfire 1500 when i was in the Army, then sold it when i got out. I wish i kept it, but i needed the money.

Flyin' Miata : NC MX-5 : Superchargers : FM MP62 supercharger system
Includes a 3 year 50,000 mile warranty, since you bring it up :) This supercharger was original co-developed by Cosworth and Mazda for the MX-5, probably as some sort of Mazdaspeed variant. Mazda decided to not offer it after it was completely developed. Flyin Miata managed to become the vendor for it, although Cosworth largely just passed off everything to them to deal with. Tuning is handled through ECU reflash, and as you can expect from co-developing with Mazda, it looks OEM, fits like OEM, drives like OEM. So far, 2006+ turbo options haven't really gotten off the ground, mostly because they can't compete with how flawless this kit is. |
What is the HP of the new MX-5?
|
^ RIWWP, you're making it pretty difficult to keep this RX8;)

If you mean new model year, the NC is all the same reported, 167 at the crank. However, there are theories that the 2009+ or 2011+ are higher power, since there have been improvements that should easily net a few ponies. |
Cool! I still can't get away from the backseats of my Eight right now or I would get a MX-5 right now. I am still enjoying the RX-8 and it is paid off. I will just keep driving it till it blows up. I hate going to the dealer sometimes. I get the urge to buy a new car every time I do.
It still does not hurt to day dream though. |
I still prefer the look of the early 90s miata with the flip up headlights, call me nostalgic. Also, with them being so cheap now, it would be more worthwhile to build it up to my taste.
|
I actually spotted 2 in my neighborhood after seeing this thread. Ones a convertible and the other is a hard top. I can't get away from my back seats tho...esp with having a kiddo. Maybe when I'm 50 and going thru my midlife crisis:rofl:
|
They are all convertibles :)
Hard top ones are either removable hard tops, or power retractable hard tops. For some reason, it's part of why many people hate the Miata. |

I would have to have the hardtop version. I saw a 2010 MX-5 at carmax with low miles at around $16,000. If I ever get one it would be used.

My little brother is planning on getting a NB here soon, we are checking one out tomorrow. He is going to get one of these fastback hardtop, makes me want to get one!

A better example

I saw a S2000 yesterday with a similar top. It looked pretty cool. Only the rest of the car looked really tacky. Sometimes a bad set of wheels ruin the car.
|
He just got this Saturday, its a fun little car.
