Mazda you fail! Why do I say that? They've probably made the most wanted Miata, but they've left the most important part out. WHERE IS THE ROTARY!!???? It's meant to be lightweight, so really please a rotary! I don't care, 12A, 13B whatever (should be a 20B though!). This is probably the last special Miata they will make for the 20th anniversary, why not put a rotary for special occassion!!???? Or even the 16X and use this as a test bed !!!

as a one off special I think it deserves one, or just to satisfy those people out there like me that think the MX-5 should have a rotary.
8.9s is awfully slow for something that looks so quick, but I guess your perception of speed will be warped with no windshield and the openness of the car. I've never driven/ridden in a speedster before but I know at 100kph, roof down on a convertible feels a lot faster than roof up
though reality may slap you across the face when Camry's and Accords easily out run you.
