And the new hotness emerges.......so many similarities......so many differences.....

 

How does the new shifter feel?

 

Beautiful, keep it nice and clean, don't need no body kit and crazy paint jobs on such a pure sports car IMHO.

BTW, is that your wife looking on or just a curious neighbor?

 

nice car. i like the 8 more though. it feels to me as a big version of a miata because both are really "momentum" cars.

 

a view front pics look similiar to an 8

 

Congrats bro.

 

Nice, congrats.. wish they gave it oval exhaust tips a'la S2K. It'll look better IMO

 

Nice car... 8 is much better IMHO. Miata is kinda of a chick car...

 

cool. At least you still have those signature mazda fenders.

 

nice miata, what all do you have planned for it?

 

Shaaaweet! Hard top is freakin badass. Was one just like that parked next to me today. Awesome looking ride IMO. Im sure it is fun as hell. Keep us up on the modding (and dont give me that "im keeping it stock" bullshit)

...and get rid of that front license plate! LOL

 

Congrats Chris! :-)

 

grats Chris!! Nice to see you staying in the Mazda family.
They make a veilside kit for that badboy???

 

very nice. i wouldn't mind one of those either!

 

i got a few kits in mind and some wheels......the front plate is off already, the car shifts exactly like the 8, rides a little tighter than the stock 8 but not as tight as my car was modded.....nothing some springs, and sways wont fix....as for the mx=5 being a chick car apparently you never seen any scca or autocross events huh?.....ever drive one?....with the dsc turned off it scares me!....the basic feel of the 8 is in the miata because they share the suspension, trans, and so many other pieces so it feels like home...but now i only have 2 doors and the top comes down

 

looks good Chris
I didnt know that mazda makes miatas with hard top

 

08 is the first year.....limited run and very limited in the color i got

 

oh and the onlooker is my mother in law

 

nice color for both interior and exterior. i like

 

nice chris! glad you went with the folding hardtop!

So when should we be expecting a rotary engine swap............hahaha.....
