And let's not forget cars like the Toyota MR-S. People think it's slow (yeah it sort of is) but will outhandle most of your cars and its braking abilities are amazing. Throw in a 2ZZ-GE and you've got some competition with other cars in its class.
Oh yeah, everybody laughed at the Miata. Everybody is jumping on the bandwagon buying one now. Every other car or two at AutoX is now a Miata.  |
can't agree with you more. this car is all about bringing back the raw driving feel that has been numbed down in most modern cars today.
everyone is prefering the Hyundai Genesis coupe, which is bigger and heavier. this FT86 is gonna run circles around the Genesis coupe on the track and in the twisties.
