With that said, the gen pop would prefer a turbo 4 or V8 as you said. I'll take any of the 3 if it makes the car faster. The only gripe I have w/the Miata is not enough power. The only reason I don't just say f it & buy an ND instead is because I will be adding another RWD V8 fast toy & would rather have that vs ND. So I can have another NA + the V8 toy. Win.
It’s interesting the link with the Miata and the LS3 v8, how that pushrod engine can fit into such a small/low package. This is one reason the pushrod has outlived a lot of estimates, low cg and small package.
