I don't know why, but I always hated the looks of the mx5. Maybe I just don't get it...

But I'd love to take that baby for a spin....

Damn that's badass...and from the pictures of the engine compartment it looks like a quality job. I definitely wouldn't mind driving that car. 8)

How can this thing be reliable and do 34Mpg???

I can't understand... originally, this engine as only 140bhp, right?

How can it have more than 3 times that, and still be reliable??
