Call me old-school, but I love the headlights. Apart from the taste question, the important thing is that it's not a "replica" kit trying to make a Miata into a badly faked something-else. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!

(Although I don't like either of them much, I'm one of the few who think the Z4 is better than Z3). The Miata (like Mazda's MX-6 and MX-3) is among the rare cars which depend on the overall grace of the shape for beauty, with a bare minimum of chrome, scoops, louvers, etc. This is a characteristic it shares with a lot of Pininfarina Ferrari designs, the old Shelby Cobra, and the 1960's and current Jaguar XK cars. My opinion is that a clean, beautiful shape beats neat "decorations" any day, in both cars and women. (I love my new Mazda 6, but I'll admit it is a bit "fussy" in styling). My Miata wears no exterior mods except a Moss grill in flat black. Joe Silver '99 |

Sadly, the RX-8 design seems to have been done by people who like "busy". An uglier collection of mis-matched details I've never seen. The poor thing is all creases and corners and slots and scoops and whatnot. Not a clean line on the whole car. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow! -- I have seen the at FUN -- visi.com |

Oh no, I wasn't saying the Miata/BMW is "beautiful," far, far from it, most certainly I wouldn't want a Miata with a plastic fake-BMW body. In fact I wouldn't buy that nice Mazdaspeed Turbo, even if I could afford one, specifically because of the ugly plastic razzmatazz they insist on bolting all over the body. Particularly the spoiler, what's the point on a convertible? Though if you happen to like that kind of stuff I guess "to each his own." The car I was talking about is Keith Tanner's Miata-powered "Locost," a Lotus Seven clone kit car. Basically I think you really can't improve on the looks of my stock '93 Miata, but (provided you don't mind absolute exposure to the weather) you can definitely improve on the weight: http://keith.miata.net/seven/flip.php?x=455 http://keith.miata.net/seven/flip.php?x=456 Yours WDK - .................................................. ...............
