Doesn't the NC Miata have a non-trubo MZR? Do they get to join?

It does, but it's not the 2.3

It looks bad, but also looks great, if that makes sense.

:flashfap: I loving love the new 3. I might have to wait a year to see if they come out with a DSG one, though.
One of the few cars where a front license plate would look ok.

Is DSG in the plans for Mazda? I know Ford has the Powershift, but it might be jumping the gun to put that in a car with 268 hp and tons of torque.

They're loving awesome, I use a set on my 380whp 300ZX and they grip like no one's business.

How much mileage do you see out of them? Based on my experience, I wouldn't expect more than 10-15k miles before they're worn out. But grip and noise wise, they are amazing for the price.

I was watching Round 4 of the Continental Tire Challenge, and the commentators were saying the Freedom Autsport team running the new MS3 were having ECU tuning problems, "on the phone with Japan and still cannot unlock the code to that machine."

How did tuning come out for the previous generation? Do the efforts there help with the new model?
