While googling it found this;
Corvette Aerowagon - https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=corvette+aerowag...
I've seen this before and that really is a WOW!!! If I won the jackpot I'd get a custom built version - lovely! (did I mention I liked it?)

How does that engine not simply explode into lots of little pieces after a few miles?


Anyway, just seen this.... excuse me whilst I clean the dribble off my screen

Is that the one from Fast N Loud? Looks like it.

It is. I like it but the headlights look cheap.

That red Flyin Miata looks factory built. 100% my kind of car. Immense.

Is that two different cars? The engine bay pic looks like a mk2.

I thought so but couldn't tell if the third pic was or not.

I'm probably going to get slated for this, but I wouldn't mind this if it was in black.

That looks like a pink version of Ben Sopra's 380SX.

I take it you mean by the lack of the flared arches?

Unsure myself aswell as to whether this is the same car, but this car comes in as a kit form complete with Engine & Body Kit. - So maybe a 'work in progress' shot?

Here's another picture but with the lack of the engine cover and strut brace:

I think it might be more to do with them being completely different generations of MX5, pics 1 & 2 are of a mk3 or 3.5 (i can't tell the difference).

Pic 4 is a mk2 engine bay, not sure about pic 3 although the colour looks more like the mk2 than the mk3.

Either way, any MX5 with a V8 in it is going to be cool.

Pic three has a different exhaust set up, they finish earlier (maybe for a sleeper effect so you cant see them sticking out of the bumper?)and there is only one recess in the bumper for an exhaust

You're right! I wouldn't of known the difference on the engine bay, but you learn something new. Also, it serves me right for skim reading paperbag. They do build an alternate sleeper-esque type, one without all the body gubbins.
