RF thread

>>15545288
you know for big Miata fans youa guys dont seem to excited for the RF, why so?

>>15545288
I love the style of the RF but It adds weight which kind of undoes the entire design philosophy

>>15545288
>Whats /o/'s thoughts on the Miata RF???

fuckin love it. i hope it comes in BRG

>>15545288

very sexy

Though it probably won't drive as well because it's heavier

Dont understand why it couldn't have been a normal ass fastback. More weight but a slightly bigger trunk
Instead this is more weight and a mechanism to fail later on in time

>>15545393
the added weight is less than the weight of an average passenger so i dont think it should affect it too much.
honestly i think it kinda looks wonky and less streamline with the top down

I love it and intend to buy one the second I am able to.

At least, after I test drive it next to the 86. Or if Fiat delivers a 124 abarth hardtop.

>>15545288
Are there any new pictures of it available?

ikr, can't believe anyone could find that attractive. Front end is complete trash. From the front-quarter perspective, the shape of the car reminds me of a fucking brick. I don't think they even tried to design the car.
>>15545568
Your face looks like a clown shoe m8. Fite me fgt.

>>15545618
yup
its fucking horseshit that if you want the 9 speaker bose system and nice leather seats you have to get the A/T version.
which is also partly why im wating for the RF

>>15545288

I like it more than the original ND.

just get a Toyobaru

less ugly
less tryhard
more livable
wont look like a homosexual

>>15545810
desu im also thinking hard about that too
but cons are
-less comfy interior
-i dont want to blow money on modlife and i have no self control
-subaru/toyota has shit customer service here
-only daddy's money fuccbois own them here

although the backseat would probably make it more practical , for stuff like bags and the occasional short ride passenger

Or you know, you could get a S2000 instead and have a

>also very reliable car
>Actually fast
>Not gay

>>15545868
Forgot to mention, the RF has the best miata look though and the least gayness. You could probably pull some bitchis with it

>>15545871
Wow are you 12

<obligatory fiata post>
i like the RF and all, it's actually really really damn good looking and i love the concept of a retractable targa top, but i just think the abarth 124 will be so much better to own overall

hoping they make a fiata RF variant but probably not

>>15546784
oh and just to be clear, i don't advocate for the base 124 is has a really awkward front end design and is missing plenty of performance bits and the exhaust sounds awful by comparison.

if you get a 124 only get the abarth

>>15545868
t. 16 year old

i might just buy one tb.h

>>15545288
I don't know why they refuse to just make this thing a coupe. It would be amazing, just like how they refuse to v8. I guess the BMW Z3 coupe didn't sell all that well, but those looked kinda weird

Now just put the door handles over the blind spot windows and drop a dorito in it
Now THAT would be a RX-9 i would work my ass off to buy, instead of that hideous thing mazda made up

I get that it's probably heavier with a higher center of gravity but at least it now looks less like a car for nambla members and more like a Corvette

honestly I'm deciding whether I should do a BMW V10 swap in a NA or spend a lot more and throw it in a ND RF

You should just do an inline 10 swap into the na
