I also have no problems with the NC miata, although it can't hold a candle to the NB (for size reasons alone, not to mention the fact that the NB miata shares so many cues with the rx7). _________________________ "On the street where there is no lap timer, feel is all that matters" - scootergeek "A bunch of nerdy douchebags chasing a ghost." -Ob1 on bitcoin

fellfrosch7 fellfrosch7 Post Master Registered: 12/17/01 Posts: 2552 Loc: Las Vegas	I liked it on their Furai concept car from a couple of years ago, it has an amazing organic look that nobody else seems to have. Kind of a throwback to some of the 1920s-30s era cars with swoopy fenders, etc, but modernized. But the execution on cars like the 3 in real life is a different story... _________________________ Running: 99 Maxima SE, 97 240SX SE - All motor Not running: 90 TSi AWD
