That also looks like a fixed instead of retractable cover.
Anyone know how realistic those tires are? Can you actually turn with them without scrapping?
It's a hard top, and the wheels are only 16". They have spacers and the arch extensions, I don't know but the actual arches may be rolled.Anyone know how realistic those tires are? Can you actually turn with them without scrapping?
I wish Mazda would give up on the silly rotary engine RX cars and properly pump up the MX5. I was wondering when someone would utilise the Cosworth supercharger too, it would be so cool to have an official 'cossie 5' and have fun in some traffic light GPs . If I had a mk3 MX5 I would defo be tempted I believe Lichfield imports fits the supercharger kit and I think you even keep your warranty too though I may be wrong on that fact.

Yes you are wrong mate, sorry to say. There have been problems with the Cossie superchargers lunching engines but it seems lately the tuning problems have been sorted over in the states (the ECU is a bh to alter apparently).MonkeyMatt said:
Is it me or is or is Mazda a seriously underated manufacuterer of cars! These concepts are ver good indeed and I dont think they have a bad car amongst the range of roadcars either! Could they become a Japanese Alfa?
Unfortunately Mazda only see 1.8-2% of the Market share, I have to say Mazda is a kind of forgotten brand.. You get your Focus, Astra, Golf or Corolla.. You never think of the Mazda3. Same with the 6.. People just get a Mundano or Passat or the like. Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
