Has anyone else seen this? I thought it looked pretty sweet.

Why isn't he on this forum?

 

Because people who just write a check for a car then never drive it don't have the passion to do so.

$13k plus shipping from Hawaii seems rediculous to me.

 

Yeah it is rediculous but I would love to have a wide body 12 second miata.

 

It is a wicked build though. Not that I would do much of it personally but the craftmanship of whoever did it is nice. Can't imagine the money spent on shipping all that crap the HI.

 

******* ugly. I'd snag the motor and seats though.

 

Well I'd like to see the dyno sheets and timeslips. Then I'd like to ask why he felt like drag racing his >50 mile old build.

He also does not say what turbo he's running. He may not even know. 280 hp at 16 psi is pretty stout, especially for a 1.6. Tq peak at 1500 rpm?

 

You got a point there...

 

this rotary one is a bit more interesting:

hmmm... why add all that carbon fiber for weight reduction if you are just going to add it back X3 in stereo/video?

 

that rotary swapped one has been for sale more than a couple times now, guess its just not worth 17k lol

no kidding

 

I am talking to him about maybe getting the rims off of him, I will definately have to do some bodywork to get them off of him. He says that he has 50k+ in it.

 

Are you serious? One of the nicest ive ever seen!

 

I have to agree. That is a pretty nice miata.

 

I ::heart:: that miata minus the stereo, but love nonetheless

 

I like it...but I'm a JDM ricer yo

 

The wide flares and black/polished lip wheels sort of give it a porsche 911 look. Must also be partly due to the headlights too.

 

Fugtastic!

 

I like this one better.

odd the blue one doesn't list any engine/turbo specs- not much detail

 

agreed... if I had the cash I would have jumped on the gorgeous machine.

 

I love the BRS widebody.......one day.........one day.
