So what does everybody think of the new car? Personally I think it looks too much like an Audi TT. At least its a RWD sports car though.

 

i think it looks good. i wouldnt mind having one my self.

 

I kinda like the looks, and I think it should sell pretty well; and having RWD will definately help out. Too bad most cars these days are FWD.

 

I'd rather get the Rx-8.

 

Mmmmm, rotary engine. How much power is it going to have stock though?

 

250hp, but the torque figures absolutely blow.

 

they say the hp and torque will be up around 280 for the production models. im sure they will make a tt version some time in the future

 

Yeah, they should be pretty easy to get up to the high horsepower numbers.

 

if i had a good job i would buy one. they are soo sexy looking, i think the after market will be huge, and the fact it share the motor with the altima/maxima it will make it even more likely

 

Well, I think it looks better than the new Skyline.

 

Anybody else hear that BMW might sell a "1" series car within the next three years? Basically a sports compact car. At least it too will be RWD. Maybe run it in the same class as the Miata. I'd like to see the Ford Duratec V6 (seriously retooled) twin turbo engine from the Noble Bell M12 dropped into a Miata. Damn would that be a fun car!

Ever wonder why Honda didn't at least make the Del Sol a RWD car? I mean its small enough to be sold alongside the Miata but they went and made it like everything else of theirs, a FWD.

 

Are you sure that would even fit into the engine bay.

And about the FWD thing, I wish there were more cars like the 240sx, cars that are RWD. It seems that the market is overflooded with FWD cars, and I don't like it(including my car).

 

you can fit a ford 5.0 into a miata. i have seen it done and read about it, its crazy

 

Yah the 5.0 is OK but there's just something about a V6 putting out 350hp that sounds tempting especially in stock form.

 

A 5 liter in a Miata, now that would be sweet; but that V6 sounds tempting, since the engine is usually quiter, it would be more of a sleeper.
