Guessing the majority of these are "launch edition" which only comes in red with tan interior.

Oh god I remember someone posted a link on Supraforums(?) not too sure, can't remember, but someone bought like a brand new GT-R, M3, Z06 or some super sick sports car and wrote it off in like the first 30 minutes of track time. Owed like 100k and he was parting it out. What a brutal story, guy was not loaded or anything.


Was a few years back, wonder what happened to him...

Well it sounds like he was a fucking idiot who needed to learn a lesson.

Not loaded will not go well with GTR/M3/Z06 and tracking.

So assuming one goes for the GX, which is already $35k taxes and fees in, it'll be at least another $5-10k depending on how deep the owner wants to jump in before the car can "keep up" with others in the same price category, i.e. WRX (yes I know they're very different cars but just using it for comparison). So by that point the ND is already a $40-$45k car easy.

Checked out the red one at Signature today too. Shame the GS model doesn't have adaptive lighting or the passenger headrest speakers + subwoofer. The cloth seats also feel really cheap, although they are comfortable.

Will be interesting to see how much the Recaro alcantara seats go for next year bundled with the BBS / Brembo package.

I never said anything about straight line. The Miata has a pretty big power deficit compared to the WRX if we're only comparing price points which is actually very similar. In terms of weight there is also a big difference, but the starting price of the ND just makes the WRX seem all that more appealing, to me at least.

ive been looking at every video review on youtube about the ND
they say its about $3500 or so more for that package. not sure if USD or CAD
but why would you need brembos on a car like this?

The car weighs like nothing, why the hell would you need a BBK unless you weigh 500lbs or something? Probably needs a good set of pads and stainless steel brake lines is all.

some of it is pedal feel, some of it is unsprung mass reduction
and most of it is the ability for a quick pad change at a track day. a cotter pin caliper u can do a pad change in about 30 seconds
some of its bling as well

its not actually a bbk, its just a caliper change
