View Full Version : Imagine this with a 302 tam 05-01-2002, 11:42 AM http://www.autoweek.nl/newsdisp.php?ID=937 The new Mazda Miata.. I gotta say it looks a lot better than the old ones. http://www.autoweek.nl/images/Articles/937/mxcoupe1.jpg http://www.autoweek.nl/images/Articles/937/mxcoupe2.jpg Kraw 05-01-2002, 11:55 AM it kinda looks like the newer ones, with a bit of RX-7 thrown in... nice oh, too bad I couldn't read the article Betty 05-01-2002, 12:11 PM I once read in the classifieds about a guy who dropped a 350 in his Miata. He called it the "Monster Miata". He wanted like 15 grand for it. Don't bother looking for it, this was years ago when I saw it. tam 05-01-2002, 12:28 PM pitch, there's a company that makes em now :) and geoff, its in dutch yeah, but i'm sure there's gonna be english articles soon on some website Manu 05-01-2002, 12:59 PM Wow, it looks much sportier, and much less 'girly.'

That's just not right... Looks sort of like the new RX7, this one is a 2+2 with 250 horsepower.

I was thinking painting it brown and call it a Catfish but our first impressions were basically the same. ;) The more I look at that front "mouth" the more it looks like the Shelby Cobras of the 60's though. There are some nicer prototypes I think that don't look like so ricey. Here is a special edition one and it is still a vert. http://www.miata.net/gallery/images/titaniumsilver_th.jpg Esjay 05-03-2002, 06:57 PM A 302 powered Miata has been available for years. Go see Monster Miata. It`s a well executed car, priced in the 50s. By the way, you muscle car buffs, if you have never driven a Miata (stock one), do so. You may find that it is one of the most enjoyable cars sold, and a bargain for the money. A base model can be had for less than 20k. sawbones25 05-04-2002, 12:17 AM http://www.christophersmall.com/images/blowfish1.gif http://www.autoweek.nl/images/Articles/937/mxcoupe1.jpg CGord 05-04-2002, 11:02 AM That is one fuuuuuuuuuugly car. |
