I remember when the Mazda Miata first came out. WOW!! It was classed as a British Style & type post war sports car that does not leak oil. Humour? Well as I certainly know about British engineering and especially Lucas electrics "aka" wiring by the Black Prince. I went I saw and I liked. It took me more that 10 years to get my Miata 2004 Yes it was tan top and British Racing Green and 6 speed. It is just an magic car to drive. I have driven it across Canada a few times, and as a good cigar is a smoke this car is a good ride. Plain fun.
