since those cars are feather weights, don't put that steep of a gear in them.

lol this is what I was talking about in my post above haha I agree 100%.
What's the point of a fast car if it's ugly as shit? Some people might just care about speed but I think a car needs to be a total package of looks and speed. But I guess that's just my worthless .02

Not exactly my cup of tea, but if it runs circles around me, what's not to like?

Miatas can EASILY be made to look clean. Some flats, and a lip kit with coilovers. This is my Sixth miata actually. My friends, stock internals with a turbo and TINY 14" street tires, 12 flat.... A ALL stock 5.0 in one is suppose to be 12.6ish. So my goal is 11's. Yeah, We all get it. Its gay. If you dont like it, no one is forcing you to lol you dont need to be a homofobe lol But, we all have our opinions. Thanks for the responses.
